[Senator Pardek]

For those of you who believe the Yanks "buy" teams, consider the origins of the following:

Rivera, Mariano
Hernandez, Orlando
Lilly, Ted
Pettitte, Andy
Mendoza, Ramiro
Posada, Jorge
Jeter, Derek
Soriano, Alfonso
Williams, Bernie

Do any of those names ring a bell?

[Citizen of the Savage Nation]

For those of you who believe the Yanks "buy" teams, consider the origins of the following:

They don't 'buy' teams, but the number of other MLB teams who can afford to go on spending sprees of the likes of the Yankees is a number that happens to be lower than 1. Its not hard for a team to look good if they have $130 million to spend.

Get serious. The Texas Rangers have proven that spending mega-bucks brings instant championships.
