DirtDevil said:So it looks like yet another wasteful year for the new york Yankees, 220 million dollar pay roll equals 3rd place in august?
Do you think they have a chance this year?
if that weren't so untrue it might've actually torqued me a bit. When you state a fact that is TOO easily proven wrong expect a challenge.DirtDevil said:The'll get the wild card and lose in the play offs as usual
OK frank, it's your turn now.......cocktail frank said:i would hope you have 20 more than the next guy being you've been around for 50 more years than most.
they have been playing as a franchise since 1901 in b-more.
then moved to NY in 1903.
so 107 years of baseball.
Nah, they haven't learned... and never will as long as the Steinbrenner's own them.I think the Yanks are learning that you can't load a team up with all stars and expect them to gell together.
You weren't alive to see most of those world series championships and lately the Yanks ain't done shit. I don't care what they did in 1936. I wasn't alive and neither were you. Let me know what you've done lately. I'm no Boston fan and they've only won 4 world series but at least they've won 2 of them in the last few years. Not to many other teams can say that. But I guess if you want to brag about what you did between 1936-53 or whatever go ahead I'm sure some old geezer is listening. if you don't win another one for another 100 years at least you've got those championships between 1936-53 right, hahahaha.Heck,
the Yankees had 20 WS wins out of 29 appearances between '21 & '65 and 26 WS wins out of 39 total, in fact in they won 12 of their 13 WS games between 1936-1953, the shear number & ratios of their WS wins is just mind boggling, a history so rich, so awesome it's refered to as a dynasty.......
you're so easy to read,But I guess if you want to brag about what you did between 1936-53 or whatever go ahead I'm sure some old geezer is listening.
if you don't win another one for another 100 years at least you've got those championships between 1936-53 right, hahahaha.
and lol @ you thinking were jealous because the yanks USED to be good. nope not at all. i don't even worry when my team plays the yanks anymore.

the reference of 85 an yr span was intended that 1923 was the first yr they won the WS, 87 had I included the previous two yrs ('21 & '22) losses & is very factual as I'd stated, ""26 WS wins in 85 years.""cocktail frank said:107 years of baseball in ny, not 85
