What you don't seem to understand is that the Yankees success over the years ADDS to the perception of them choking like no other. They are, as you wrote, the most successful franchise in baseball, been in a string of post season appearances, with the highest payroll in the game, at home, after leading the series 3-0, against the same team they beat in the seventh game last year, AND STILL MANAGED TO COLLAPSE LIKE NO OTHER TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF BASEBALL!!!!!!!!!

I understand. I understand that people like you hate the Yanks and you're happy they lost. So be it. LOL But the Yanks will be back next season. When you've been in the post season as much as the Yankees have been --- 26 WS Championships & 39 AL Pennants --- there's a good chance that you'll be involved in some losses. Even some historic losses. This time the Yanks came out on the short end. But when you're one of the best organizations around, you take your lumps and come back better and stronger.
