Edited on Tue Jul-13-10 09:41 AM by kennedyphan
Why don't the Yankees reduce costs if mystic and aura is the cause of their success?

38. The Walmart of MLB? Other than both being hated, I don't see it.
Edited on Fri Jul-16-10 12:52 PM by hughee99
The Yankees pay their players better than anyone in the league, and their pay scale raises wages for all "workers" (players) whether they work for the Yankees or not.

As opposed to buying cheap stuff in China, the Yankees go out an pay top dollar, and a result, their customers (Yankees fans) get a pretty consistent high-quality product.

Rather than ownership keeping the profits, most of the profits are reinvested in the employees and the business in general.

Yankees tickets are expensive.

It's a "union shop". Everyone has guaranteed contracts and health care.


And I say all this as a hardcore Red Sox fan.

39. Yeah go figure people who are loyal to a team
whatever their record...We all know if you don't root ONLY for the winners there's something wrong with you..:sarcasm:
I however will keep enjoying watching Stephen Strasburg, Ryan Zimmerman Adam Dunn and the rest of the guys who play very entertaining baseball.

40. Enjoy it while you can.
They're gonna look good in Yankee pinstripes, Dodger blue, Dead Sux Red, etc...eventually, at least Strasburg & Zimmerman will. You can keep Dunn. :rofl:

Thanks for proving my point! Your first comment being the "dumb" & this one the "dumber"

I have been a Yankee fan for as long as I can remember. From the Mantle/Maris/Howard/Houk glory days to the Clarke/Pepitone/Dooley Womack/ lean years to the Munson/Jackson/Catfish/Martin championship teams to the Stump Merrill/Jesse Barfield/Andy Hawkins nightmare squads. Your OP calling ALL Yankee fans spineless bandwagoners was/is idiotic.

Edited on Fri Jul-16-10 02:27 PM by TZ
Does arrogant fucksticks work better? You really do fit that. You can rest assured that none of these guys are going anywhere. This team has been slowly improving its farm system which, since unlike the Yankees they haven't destroyed by trading away for any over priced free agents...How'd Randy Johnson, Bobby Abreu, AJ Burnett work out for you guys? Believe it or not, some guys enjoy building a good team elsewhere. Not everyone is the mercenary money grubbing lying ego maniacs that NY craves.
