❓ Question

Posters discuss whether Steinbrenner's manic motor-mouth behavior on the show accurately reflects the real Yankees owner, with a New York viewer confirming he is indeed like that in reality.

When Steinbrenner talks a lot like a motor mouth, I don't understand why it's so funny. Can anyone fill me in? Is he supposed to be like this in real life?

He's supposed to be nuts! And don't forget that he used to be one of the most unpopular person in NYC.

Steinbrenner is EXACTLY like the character played on Seinfeld. For those of us in the New York area who now have headaches after nearly 20 years of his insanity, and endless firinggs of managers and front office personnel while spending millions on second rate players, Seinfeld comes as a real breath of fresh air. (Steinbrenner was absolutely right about binding arbitration however but he was voted down by the other owners, to their own dispare. But that is another story)
