I decided that since my predicitions have not been going so well I wanted to blog about a team that epitimizes everything wrong with sports, the New York Yankees. The New York Yankees and their 200 million dollar payroll are ruining baseball, just look at the fact that in the next 3-4 days Scott Kazmir will be pitching for the Angels, this is the same Scott Kazmir who was the Rays top prospect for years and their ace. They had to trade him because they knew the yankees and red sox would out bid them so they had to trade him and now they are considering trading Carl Crawford for the same reason. This would be like the Falcons being forced to trade Matt Ryan and Roddy White because they are afraid the Jets and Giants would outbid them and sing their players or the Spurs having to trade away Tim Duncan, when he was in his prime, and Tony Parker because they were afraid the Lakers and Knicks would out bid them. This leads to all but 5-8 teams having a consistent chance to compete while the rest of the league has to build for 5-10 years just for one shot like the Marlins of 97 and 03 or Last years Rays.
Also Yankee fans annoy the crap out of me and the fans of the other 29 teams in baseball with their pompousness, their belief that is their god given right to win a world series, their whine when they lose attitude, their belief that they have the best of everything (stadium which I would not even rank in the top 5), and their overall loudness and rudeness. They believe in the ghost of yankee stadium and complain about no TVs in the stadium bathrooms and complain about every single ball/strike call that doesn't go their way like it cost them the world series and their lives
Yankee fans for your information here are a list of fans that can talk shit to you: DBacks fans, Angels fans, Marlins fans (if they exist), Red Sox fans, White Sox fans, Cardinals fans, Phillies Fans you know why because they all have won a world series since 2000, we have seen 2 new presidents be sworn in since then and there are 9 year olds who were alive when they last won a world series so shut up and enjoy watching your team choke away another series lead.

FYI, it is nothing like Matt Ryan and Roddy White being traded because of the Jets or the Giants because A: the Jets aren't smart enough to go after good players. B: You can't do things like that in the NFL. C: Players in the NFL are willing to sign for less if they are on a winning team, note: Randy Moss
ReplyDeleteThe reason players in the NFL are willing to sign for less is because there is not much difference between offers due to the salary cap. Also Randy Moss wanted to get out of Oakland, which is not really an NFL franchise, and went to New England a model franchise where he had to prove he could be a team player, basically it was last shot and had to take what he could get.
