Yankees owner George Steinbrenner remembered as intense figure with charitable heart
HOWIE RUMBERG AP Sports Writer
12:39 AM PDT, July 14, 2010
*** begin quote ***
A media hound when it came to baseball matters, Steinbrenner was equally reserved in matters of charity. And he gave plenty — especially in his adopted hometown of Tampa.
Steinbrenner had no connection to Virginia Tech, but after a gunman killed 32 students on the campus in 2007 he donated $1 million to the “Hokies Spirit Memorial Fund” and sent the Yankees to Blacksburg, Va., for an exhibition game.
“To respond to a need as he did and put it into action tells me everything about what kind of a human being he was,” Virginia Tech baseball coach Pete Hughes said. “It was an immediate response, too, by him — ‘How can we help them?’ — and within 24 hours, the logistics of that game was being talked about.”
A graduate of Williams College, Steinbrenner, nonetheless, funded the Ohio State marching band for years — his name is on a campus building.
“Mr. Steinbrenner and his wife were the driving force behind the new marching band facility in Ohio Stadium,” said Jon Waters, assistant band director. “We will always remember George Steinbrenner’s love of music and his love of the Ohio State University marching band.”
*** end quote ***
It was interesting.
In the past, some folks had nothing good to say about him. Now they praise him. I know the rule is to say nothing ill of the dead, but I don’t understand that. Pray for the sou, but be honest and true to your own beliefs. If I’m a Swell Old Boy when I’m alive, then why lie and say I was a saint after I’m dead?
And, one thing I did like about the fellow, other than his focus on “winning”, was his charity. Never “rub your nose in it”. But it was interesting how Yankee Stadium was always available for a good cause. I ave no idea if that was by accident or on orders form the top, but it just seemed to happen. I remember reading through the years more than one terminally ill kid getting special treatment at Yankee stadium. Could be selective memory or it could have been orders from “the Boss”.
And, of course, we all were educated in the powers of a limited partner by George. “There’s nothing more limited than a limited partner in the Yankees.” — the late sports executive John McMullen,
But the lesson of The Boss George was, imho, charity.
Quietly done as you see the need with a minimum of fuss.
That’s eternal.
p.s., I think Steinbrenner signed first black head coach of a US pro sports team: John McClendon, Cleveland Pipers

Charters Kill Private Schools and Add to Taxpayer Burden
Posted by Adam Schaeffer
*** begin quote ***
Here’s the latest on how government charter schools are killing what’s left of the private sector in education:
The number of students enrolled in these public, independently run schools has risen dramatically in this decade. Philadelphia school district officials estimate that 73 percent of the children now in charters came from district schools and 27 percent from other schools. That 27 percent amounts to about 9,000 students, and Catholic-school educators believe that most of them came from Catholic schools. Charter schools have one distinct advantage over Catholic schools. They do not charge tuition.
Charters are NO substitute for private school choice. In fact, by destroying private schools, they seriously erode the total range of educational options.
We need to be clear-headed about this; charter school laws, in the absence of robust private school choice programs, destroy educational freedom and choice.
*** end quote ***
Now I know you are all rolling your eyes. The fat old white guy injineer is back on his soapbox about the Gooferment being anti-Catholic. And you’re sure the adversarial role of the Church versus the State or King is coming soon with references to Robin Hood, Zorro, and Yoda.
— Oops, Yoda? Yoda is a different rant —
But, you have to admit: Isn’t it funny peculiar how everything the Gooferment does kills religion. It’s almost like the Queen is killing her rivals?
Do you still doubt that the true purpose of the Prussian School Model, aka Gooferment Skrules as currently implemented, was to make cannon fodder for the Army, willing morons for the factories, and useful idiots to vote for and be led by the elite?
Let’s take the gloves off.
There is not a sliver of doubt that this is a conscious effort to kill the Queen’s Rival.
(I’ll use “The Church” now to encompass the Catholic Church and the kindred spirits in the Religious Right.)
The Church tries to convince people believe in some higher power than the Gooferment; the Gooferment can’t stand to share power with anything. The Church teaches us to help our neighbors; the Gooferment wants to keep all its poor people right there on the Gooferment plantation. The Church advocates the Golden Rule; the Gooferment doesn’t want peace because strife gives it more power.
I’m sad at all we have lost.
Not the least of which is the Catholic Schools which are the fountain of future Catholics.
And, those schools were surrendered to Gooferment Skrules without a fight.
