must be feeling great since youve spent like 1 bil and couldnt win shit for 9 years
i dont mind yanks winning once in 9 since it only proves how terrible you have to suck compared to teams with 3-4 times smaller budgets. Shitting away the money is about the only birthright new yorkers have( besides being annoying)

the best part about people who hate the yankees is how they often make it this bizarre personal thing as if they have been individually slighted.

food, whatever team you are a fan of, its full of multi multi millionaires. stop being such a self-righteous idiot and acting as though the yankees alone are the big band wolf.

ass.

just wait till rivera is done and the old core gets even older
posada should be done too
rivera alone carried yanks every time, i dont know if they had a shot this year without him

So true, Jyvblamo.

Look, unless we have like a Rays fan here, the team defined by being the player farm for the rest of the industry, no one really has a right to complain about the Yankees budget. It is the strategy that defined the Sox's success this decade, the strategy that actually brought Mets to be something of a competitive team, we can list on and on. The Yankees spend more...so what? Kettle, pot.

Yeah, I am pretty worried at when Rivera gets done for -.-

ass.


agreed. only the red sox fans have the right to make it personal. not everyone makes millions of dollars, but the salary minimum is 300,000, if I'm not mistaken. It's not like your players are barely getting food on the dinner table.

It's not our fault that we have a bigger budget than other teams. What do you want? A communist-style system with complete parity?

I'm not a big fan of the 2009 Yankees. Kudos to them for winning and all but I just can't respect them. I remember the golden days of the Yankees centering around Posada, Jeter, Rivera, Clemens, Pettitte, O'Neill, Williams and everyone else. Pretty much the same crop year in and year out. It was fun to follow the Sox-Yanks rivalry. If there was a team I knew almost as good as the BoSox, it was the Yankees. So many memories. Pedro pushing Zimmer down, Clemens versus the BoSox and all of the drama from the late 1990s and early 2000s. The last few years of both the Sox and the Yankees just seem so bought and unfulfilling as a fan. The days of a player staying with one team throughout his career is soon to be gone. I can only hope a few of the likes of Lester, Bucholtz, Pedroira, Ellsbury, or Delcarmen can carry on the tradition for Bahstahn.


I think the MLB needs to replace the luxury tax and just have a flat salary cap. It's easy to just throw money around but there needs to be more value in making smart financial choices that have a significant impact on the team's future. Not everyone can be Boston, NY, or LA and spend without really feeling the consequences. What's a wasted 10 million to them? Not much. Other teams, they're stuck with that mistake for a while.

lol @ a BAHSTAN fan bitching about spending. you're still miles ahead of the rest of the league and buy just as much

but it is retarded that the mlb doesnt have a cap. small market teams cant compete, or if they do, the window is for about a year or two before all those guys hit the market. it's retarded

Boston wouldn't never have got into the financial rat race if not for the yankees, 86 years of losing, and said yankees fans taunting them for said 86 years.

"Unlike the Yankees, he chose not to go the extra distance for his fans in Boston," Steinbrenner said of Boston owner John Henry, after the Yankees got A-Rod, after the Red Sox failed to close the deal. "We understand that John Henry must be embarrassed, frustrated and disappointed by his failure in this transaction."


Kudos to having the best offense. The Yankees are renowned for putting together great offensive teams, why I remember a few years back they had the murderers row of hitters, the scariest lineup since the early 20th century. No team had a chance between them and the title that year.

I'm not defending the Sox at all. If you read the post instead of "BAHSTAHN BAHSTAHN BAHSTAHN" you'd realize that. It's bullshit not to have a cap and really inhibits any small market team to stay competitive for several years at a time. Just look at the Florida Marlins: they develop their talent extremely well, trade well, win a World Series, and then when their stars hit the market, the Marlins most of the time cannot afford to sign them. This is why 75% of the teams that win are from the biggest markets with the deepest pockets.

If you're talking about 'murderers row,' that was in 1927 with Ruth and Gehrig. Let us not tarnish that reputation by comparing them to some Yankee team in the past two decades.
