The timing of George Steinbrenner’s death may have ensured that the New York Yankees franchise stays in the family.
Because of a lapse in the federal estate tax, Steinbrenner’s family is saving about $500 million that they would have otherwise had to pay Uncle Sam. The 45 percent tax expired in January and starts up again in 2011 at 55 percent.
