Read any of my above posts and tell me where I say it has nothing to do with money.

My problem is with people like you, who clearly have no idea whats gone on in the history of baseball, saying the Yankees have bought 27 world championships. If you did know anything about the history of baseball, you would know that the Yankees didnt start spending the money they spend unbtil the late 90's.

Please show me where ANYWHERE I said that they have bought all 27? Go ahead and quote me on it, you won't be able to.

All I care about is the recent past, present and future. Its bad for the game, its an unfair advantage ... its pretty much bullshit. You guys are the rich kids with all the best opportunities because your parents have endless amounts of money.

They spend a shit ton of money, and while Yankee fans might love it, pretty much any other fan of baseball knows it is shitty for the sport.

You guys throw tons of money at every big star and obviously you are going to have the upper hand every year. It baffles me why you guys haven't won a lot more recently actually. With those odds in your favor you really should be.

Stop crying and telling me I don't know shit about baseball because I hit you with the truth. Enjoy your pricey trophy and hope you can fork out enough for another one in the next 9 years.

Its bad for the game?! Find me another team that sells out away games?

People LOVE coming to watch the Yanks play. Because you either love them or hate them. Its GREAT for the game.

Spending 50+ million MORE than the next richest team is NOT good for the game. Ask any non Yankee fan. Spending 100+ million more than MOST MLB teams is definitely not in any way, shape or form any good for the game of baseball. And you know that shit. Its ridiculous
