CHOKESS LOSE CHOKEES LOSE THHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE CHOKEES LOSE ha ha good shall overcome evil once again

I've been starting to root for the Yankees over the past few years just because I'm annoyed by all these mindless hating just because they're the best franchise in sports...the hatred is pretty much jealousy :blink: So a baseball team who wins more than anyone else is as bad as a group that commited genocide on various groups and was responsible for the deaths of millions? the yankees have commited genocide on baseball and are responsible for the deaths of millions of real baseball fans souls you're a moron...explain how...because they win a lot? Without the Yankees, there wouldn't be Major League Baseball and therein lies the problem. small market clubs can in NO WAY spend the money the Yanks and Sox can. that's just a simple fact. It's like having a salary cap for only half the teams. small market clubs are FORCED to build through the farm system and if their prospects don't all develop into ***** and all at the right time, they don't have a real chance. Ask any baseball expert. And while some teams are just better than others, sports teams having a clear-cut advantage over other sports teams spoils some fans and ****** off others. And a lot of historically winning teams have a gigantic crowd of bandwagoner fans and cocky fans who think they are just more intelligent than fans of teams who lose more often. Steinbrenner's WS Championships are watered-down. Winning with a payroll of around $200 million waters it down if the Yankees do happen to win the World Series.It becomes unimpressive.Yankees make the sport less likeable. More undecisive soon-to-be sports fans make the right decision and turn to either college sports or the NFL. also that Luxury Tax Steinbrenner pays is just chump change and has very little impact. By the way that Luxury Tax becomes a write off . You can 'compete' with lower payrolls but you will not compete year in and year out and when the Yanks, Sox, etc are nearing 200million all you can do is hope to win a playoff series. Last ten years the only "small" market teams" to win a World Series-Florida and Arizona. NY Yanks-4times, 4 in 5 years. They have choked in recent years but they do have more talent than any other team. Even with key injuries they just go out and trade for/buy new players. How would the Twins or A's be doing if two or 3 bigtime players on their team were gone for the year? Baseballs system is messed up, how anyone can even with a straightface watch the sport get passed by the likes of Nascar and act as though its in great shape is just being silly. Baseball is a 2nd rate American sport, thats a tragedy. Most fans just dont care about it. Why should they? Their team has no shot. Bringing up two teams like the As and Twins who make solid runs only to be passed by teams with stacked payrolls isnt making a point. Baseball sucks right now for like 80% of the league, knowing they have no legit shot.

this is a little old by funny as hell NEW YORK?With a week to go before pitchers and catchers report for spring training, the New York Yankees shored up their pitching, hitting, and defense Monday by signing every player in professional baseball. Some of the New York Yankees' newest additions are introduced to the press. "We'd like to welcome the entire roster of Major League Baseball into the Yankees family," said team owner George Steinbrenner, watching as the franchise's 928 newest additions held up their pinstripes at a Yankee Stadium press conference. "With these acquisitions, we are in position to finally nab that elusive 27th World Series title." Sports reporters were not surprised by the move. "This is not entirely unexpected," New York Times baseball writer Murray Chass said. "When the Yankees followed up their signing of Japanese slugger Hideki 'Godzilla' Matsui by annexing Cuba for use as a Triple-A farm club, it was clear that Steinbrenner was willing to do whatever it takes to win." By noon, Yankees GM Brian Cashman had signed the entire National League and most of the American League to multi-year contracts. Some 10 hours later, the final opposing player, Texas Rangers shortstop Alex Rodriguez, had been acquired by the Yankees, who bought out the remainder of his $252 million contract for $300 million. "It's an honor to be part of this team," said catcher Benito Santiago, picked up from the San Francisco Giants as insurance in case catchers Jorge Posada, Ivan Rodriguez, and Mike Piazza all go down with injuries. "It's a surprise, certainly, but I'd be crazy to turn down the opportunity to play on what is, by default, the greatest team in baseball." Yankees manager Joe Torre, whose pitching rotation, prior to the mass signing, lacked a clear seventh ace, now has the luxury of starting each of his hurlers twice a season. "As they say, you can never have enough pitching in this league," Torre said. "Especially come playoff time. Now, if we make it to the World Series, we'll be able to start Pedro Martinez in Game 1 and still have him fresh and ready to go for a Game 287, should it be necessary." With so many egos to juggle and so many personnel decisions to make, Torre said his job will actually be harder this season, the lack of opposing players notwithstanding. "Hey, I don't care who you've got on your team; winning in this league is tough?Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds, and Randy Johnson or no Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds, and Randy Johnson," Torre said. "And it's even tougher in New York. This is a baseball town, and some of these fans think the Yankees are the only team in baseball. Now that we truly are, the pressure to win will be that much greater." The mass signing, extravagant even by Yankees standards, caused the Bronx Bombers' payroll to skyrocket from a former league high of $149 million to $5.6 billion. Cashman noted that much of that figure is tied up in bonuses to be paid out to pitcher Tom Glavine, who at 37 will almost certainly not play out the entirety of his 15-year contract. Baseball commissioner Bud Selig approved the signing, noting that the other 29 major-league teams received ample financial compensation. "I see no reason why a small-market team like the Twins or Expos can't continue to remain competitive, just because it lacks players," Selig said. "The league was due for contraction, anyway."
