[! JDM The Professional !]

New York Daily News, citing a Yankees team source, says George Steinbrenner died at about 6:30 a.m. ET today after suffering a heart attack last night.

WABC reports George Steinbrenner has suffered a massive heart attack. The TV station says the Yankees owner was rushed to St. Joseph's hospital. The New York Daily News and ESPN are reporting that "The Boss" is in "extremely critical condition."

Steinbrenner turned 80 on July 4th.

The Tampa Tribune reports that emergency crews responded at Steinbrenner's home last night. Steinbrenner last week told the AP he was "feeling good" after spending a couple hours in his office at the Yankees' spring training complex.

Definitely a sad day. He did a lot for the sport and even as a Blue Jays fan, I'm sad to see him go.
