And the magnificent teams managed by Joe Torre from1996 through the early 2000s.

A monkey could have managed those teams. Steinbrenner had tons more money than everyone else. Pretty much bought the World Series.

But a monkey would not have prevented Steinbrenner from trading away Jeter, Pettite, Posada,Rivera and Williams for older veteran players circa 1991-95. Stick was the one who made sure those players stayed in the system.

Oh so your a socialist. Very well.

Money turned a team he bought for millions into a term worth billions. It’s called capitalism.
That’s ok. Steinbrenner’s stupid friggin kids don’t get it. They’d rather support soccer and tear up the field.
