Steinbrenner Will Receive "Idiot Son of the Year" Award

“If You Just Keep Opening Your Mouth Good Things Will Happen”

Crawford, TX - The New York Yankees’ Hank Steinbrenner will receive The American Sterilization Society’s “Idiot Son of the Year Award” at the group’s annual gala to be held this year in Crawford, TX. “I dreamed this day would come,” said Steinbrenner, “but, to be honest, I never imagined it would happen so quickly. I guess this proves that if you just keep opening your mouth, good things will happen. I’m thrilled.”

The prestigious ISY (“eye-see”) award will be presented by James Dolan, major domo of the NBA’s New York Knickerbockers, and himself the son of a successful (and proud) father, mega-mogul Charles Dolan, owner of Cablevision.

“Hank and I are kindred spirits,” said Dolan, Jr. in a written statement, “this is extremely cool.”

Steinbrenner’s father, George Steinbrenner, known as “The Boss” was well known for his headline-grabbing quotes, including this now iconic pearl: “Some guys can lead through genuine respect, I’m not that kind of leader.”

This week, The Boss’s son did his father proud when he told The New York Times Play magazine: “(America) is a Yankee country. We’re going to put the Yankees back on top and restore the universe to order.”

"I'm a big Hank fan," said Red Sox owner John Henry in a telephone interview with eTrueSports, "he's truly deserving of the ISY Award."
