George and Joan Steinbrenner Had Fourteen Grandchildren

Since the Steinbrenners won't sell, ever, we really need to look down the road to find an heir that can restore the franchise to its former greatness. 

Sure, most to all of us will be dead by the time another one takes the reins, but eventually there will be another Steinbrenner in charge. 

This guy look promising...

George Michael Steinbrenner IV

He's already cutting his sports ownership teeth with his Indy Car team. Plus, if the Yankees need some extra money to sign a free agent, George Michael already knows, "There's money in the banana stand." 

Then there's his sister...

Julia Steinbrenner 

She is now the co-owner of Steinbrenner Racing.  

Both are the children of Hank BTW.  Hank, if you recall was behind the second A-Rod contract and was removed shortly thereafter from "the family business". That said, Hank wanted to win! 

There's also...

Katherine Steinbrenner 

Hal's daughter has supposedly expressed interest in running the Yankees. 

I could not find a photo or anything else on her other than from a Wikipedia entry that was so dated Hank is still alive and the odds are good that Steve Swindal will be running the Yankees soon. So take it with a grain of salt. 

I guess there's always...

A Dark Horse 

I'm certainly not looking for a King Ralph type situation, but perhaps there is a 14th cousin hanging around somewhere that will ascend to the throne in meteoric fashion. 

I'll leave you with this.  Even if the dynastic ruler of the Yankees changes we may not get the relief we are seeking. According to Wikipedia, "(Brian Cashman) and his (former) wife, Mary, have two children, Grace and Theodore."
