George Steinbrenner, owner of the New York Yankees, built a pennant winning team through buying talent and trading, while driving hard and demanding winning attitude. He splits time between Tampa and Manhattan, backs Broadway, owns race horses and a share of the Bulls, and insists on connecting with fans, even giving away tickets to kids outside the stadium.
