Damn Yankees

Well, that's one for all 10 fingers, all 10 toes and well crap......27 is a lot of championships.

Love them or hate them, you can't deny that the Yankees are dedicated to winning.  They chase down premier players to lead their teams and they got it done again.

It is popular to argue that their style is unfair, and there is some merit to those arguments, but fair or not....they are not cheating.  They are within the rules, they are just in the best position to take advantage of those rules. 

So, I am going to wait a few days to post on the disparity in the payroll system of Major League Baseball relative to the other sports and have some fun about how it would force teams to change.  Nope, that will come later, and I hope that everyone enjoys reading it as much as I am enjoying writing it.

No, today is a day for the Victors.  So, Pinstripers, here's to you.  They always say it, and for once it's true.  Like it or not, the best team won.

Congratulations, enjoy the ticker tape, and I hope you get whooped next season.

But hey, on the bright side, at least it wasn't the Cubs.

Ugh... You just reminded me that I'll get to watch John Lackey in pinstripes next year.

But here's to the Yankees: GFY!*
