NY Wankees'

Um, excuse me, but you wouldn't happen to be a Nats fan would you? Nats is a good nickname for a team who's legacy is the size of a Nat's ass, BTW. Seeing that the

Yankees

have won 26 world titles in their illustrious history, compared to how many for your team?

In the modern era (post free agency) the Wanks have won 6 World Series and lost 4. 21 of their WS wins came over 40 years ago or longer. Who cares what they did back then?

money.

Rich teams from big markets do better than do poor teams from small markets. They buy teams.

Every St Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit, Pittsburg, Kansas City, etc. win in either League or World series over the years took a lot more long-term attention to detail, dollars, determination, and deftness than all the big-market wins put together.

The balance of pro football proves that.

Strangely, I really like the olden-time Yankees. Lou Gehrig is one of my heroes. I just can't stand the modern version. Don't know why.
