*$ YANKEE'S WIN! *$ Color me surprised! Like watching a big bully beat up on a baby.
Storied franchise my sweet bippy! They lost that title when they went all King Midas and steroid driven. So it should be STEROID YANKEE FRANCHISE.
But let's face it, baseball as we knew it years ago is gone, gone, gone. From rampant steroid use to buying championships, eet is so very GONE. Bud Sellout has ruined the game.
So don't put the Yankees with my beloved Cowboys. A salary cap does make a difference. There is parity in the NFL unlike in baseball.
As far as the NBA goes, wow, there are so many corrupt referees I can't follow the game anymore. Baseball and Hockey are headed that way too. The NFL is not far behind from what we've been seeing in the last few years. Particular the SB cheating Stealers against the Seahawks.
Basically, you have to follow sports now with the knowledge there's cheating on every level, and that some owners, cough, Steinbrenners, cough, will do anything to win. So you gotta take world championships, like the WS, the Stanley Cup, the SuperBowl, and NBA championships with a grain of salt. There is no glory or honor in beating up on teams with way less money than yours, with juiced up players or with corrupt officiating.
And the King Midas syndrome is why I stopped rooting for the Yankees in the 90's. And I was as diehard a fan as you'll ever see.
If the NFL were to do away with the salary cap and JJ resorted to buying without restraint like the Steinbrenners, goodbye Cowboys. And I've been a fan for over 40 years.
Of course, if it ever got to that point, I'd never follow another sporting event.
