Reports are now surfacing after early morning accounts that New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner has died at the age of 80 years old.

According to reports, Steinbrenner was rushed to a Tampa hospital after emergency personnel had responded to a call at his home on Monday night.

Steinbrenner told the Associated Press in an interview last week that he was feeling fine even after just celebrating his eightieth birthday on July 4th.

Under his ownership of the Bronx Bombers, the Yankees and Steinbrenner have won seven American League pennants and seven World Series titles.

Rest in peace Harvey.

Harvey Pekar, whose autobiographical comic book series "American Splendor" portrayed his unglamourous life with bone-dry honesty and wit, was found dead July 12 at his home in Cleveland. He was 70.
Pekar had suffered from prostate cancer, asthma, high blood pressure and depression.

The 2003 film chronicling his life, "American Splendor," was Oscar-nommed for adapted screenplay and won the best picture and screenplay awards from the Los Angeles Film Critics and best first film from the New York Film Critics. Paul Giamatti played Pekar in the film.

"Harvey was one of the most compassionate and empathetic human beings I've ever met," Giamatti said in a statement. "He had a huge brain and an even bigger soul. And he was hilarious. He was a great artist, a true American poet, and there is no one to replace him."

From what I can tell, it hits your in-box as a message from a friend urging you to look at a funny video that you might be in. Then it urges you to update your flash player.
