City Hall Lowers Flags To Half-Mast For The Boss

2010_07_boss2.jpg Here come the tributes to George Steinbrenner, the Yankees owner who passed away this morning. The NYC Mayor's Office Tweeted this morning, "Our prayers go out to the Steinbrenner family. We’re thankful George got to see the Yankees bring one more title to the city he loved." That was followed by, "We’re lowering the flags in City Hall Plaza in honor of George Steinbrenner - a man who raised 7 championship flags at Yankee Stadium."
