Steinbrenner Inducted Into Red Sox Nation
2nd March, 2008 - 11:19 am
ESPN - Red Sox principal owner John Henry has offered Hank Steinbrenner an honorary induction into Red Sox Nation, according to ESPN.com.

"I'm a big Hank fan," Henry wrote in an e-mail to the Boston Herald. "Just to ensure he knows how cool Red Sox Nation is, [Saturday] we officially inducted him as a member of Red Sox Nation and we are sending him his membership card giving him access to an array of options including our newsletter, bumper stickers, pins, Green Monster seats and a hat personally autographed by David Ortiz."

Henry made the gesture just a few days after Steinbrenner had some choice words about Red Sox Nation.

"Red Sox Nation? What a bunch of [expletive] that is," he said in an interview with The New York Times' Play magazine. "That was a creation of the Red Sox and ESPN, which is filled with Red Sox fans." [READ]
