He pleaded guilty. He paid the fines. 35 grand. He was pardoned.
He also revolutionized baseball. And the Yankees, according to Forbes is worth over a billion buckaroos. Not bad for a 10 million dollar investment. And there are only 2 other franchises worth more. Dallas being one of them. Can't remember the other team.
And after moving here 35 years ago looking for a berth wide enough for his shipbuilding company he's made many many contributions to this area. He was a giving person. And to think. I hate baseball. (All sports actually except for fishing of course)
Good thing he died this year though. Next year his estate would have been taxed to death.
