Seriously, That kind of insanity doesn't buy championships. It buys all stars. It can put fans in the seats and get media coverage, but it has yet to be proven it is a championship formula. The Yankee championship teams of the late 90s had smaller payrolls and more homegrown talent. I have always thought any other team could have been those Yankees. Plenty of teams at that time could have signed Paul O'Neil or Tino Martinez, David Cone, David Wells, Mike Mussina, ect. Jeter and Posada are their homegrown, and I think (but am not sure) Rivera is also. Scott Broscious was at 3B and Chuck freakin' Knoblach (SP?) was part of their championship infield. They were HR sluggers but good hitters. So don't be mad at the evil Yankees. They are having troubles and Los Mets!! are the best team in NY. So you Yankees haters out there, stop hating success. Hate the Royals for being so bad and managing their team into the toilet. Let's see a blog about that somewhere for a change. Now I am not a Yankee fan, but am a Rivera fan and Jeter Fan. They are awsome players to watch. But hey, good post guy. It is nice to read. [attacksquad from Austin/TX] Replies:
