    Loyal Steinbrenner still repaying Saban for favor

    The Boss and Lou.
    The friendship between George M. Steinbrenner III and former Buffalo Bills coach Lou Saban has endured since the summer day they met on a playground in Cleveland 55 years ago.

    It became institutionalized recently when the New York Yankees owner sponsored a scholarship in Saban's name.

    The stern Boss of the Yankees and the nomadic Saban.

    Seems like an odd mix. Just the opposite.

    They form a mutual admiration society, which is one reason the Steinbrenner family is laying out $300,000 to endow in Saban's honor one of the $18,000-a-year National Football Foundation postgraduate scholarships awarded annually to seniors or graduate students in their final year of eligibility.
