Flumper Barflusterbutt Wrote:you really don't know much about how businesses work do you?
BIRD33 Wrote:Actually I do.Its just in this particular situation the succession plan was already in action.There is no transfer of anything now that he died.Its been done already.
Flumper Barflusterbutt Wrote:so you think the sons have been running the team all this time without any input from the old man? i guess that could be, but it would be pretty rare.

http://www.portfolio.com/culture-lifesty...einbrenner
When he sees McEwen, a big, goofy grin spreads across his face. "Great to see ya, Tommy," he exclaims.
"Great to see you, George," McEwen says. He introduces me as a writer working on a story and asks about Steinbrenner's wife, Joan.
"Great to see ya, Tommy," Steinbrenner says.
McEwen asks about his sons, Hank and Hal.
"Great to see ya, Tommy," he says.
McEwen asks about his daughters, Jennifer and Jessica.
"Great to see ya, Tommy," he says.
McEwen asks about his health.
Steinbrenner sighs heavily and mutters, "Oh, I'm all right."
I'm sure his son's still asked for advice on player moves.I picture it going like this.
"Hey dad, should we sign Jeter to that extension?"
"Great to see you, Tommy"
"Dad I'm your son, Hal"
"Great to see you, Tommy"
Read that article and please shut up now.Thanks.
