The Yankees Are At It Again... (1~13~09)

The Yankees buying another Championship! What a disgrace to the game of baseball. (<--- according to the comments I am getting for that statement I need to add this... that is a joke! ... Not only am I a girly baseball chick I'm also hillarious!)

Hardy Har Har!


I am so tired of people going on and on about the Yankees buying a team. Oh boo hoo! Every team goes out and buys a team they hope can win or at least lead to future Championships. The Yankees, while they are by far not my favorite team (I'm quite neutral, can't get myself to like them but I can't quite hate them either), they do manage to put good teams together. I understand they have more money than a lot of teams, but having a lot of money doesn't mean you make the best decisions, it doesn't mean everyone will stay healthy, it doesn't mean you will win. I'm an A's fan, one of the lowest payrolls in Major League Baseball and you don't hear me cryin'. If anything I think the A's show you that you can get far with a small payroll. Sure we may not have won a Championship in this era of Beane BUT am I wrong or has it been several years (when the Yanks obtained Giambi) since the Yankees won a world series?

Also there hasn't been much available, there haven't been any players I've really been excited about. Well, except for when the A's got Frank Thomas. I know he's old and I know he has issues with his legs, and I know he can't run, but it was FRANK THOMAS!!!! Rickey Henderson is one of my favorite ball players but so is Frank Thomas, now if the A's could get Griffey Jr., I think I would be in heaven. Even if we get these guys towards the end of their career I just like knowing that my favorite players were once on my favorite team. Is that the girly emotional side of me? Who knows, and who cares!


Have I expressed yet how much I love this game? Just wondering!
So yah the Yankees! Man it's hard to keep on tract when I start thinking about the A's. Oh and do they or do they not have the best dang commercials. If you haven't seen them seriously the A's have the best ads.

There I go again! Ramble Ramble!

Ok so yah the Yankees. They aren't buying a team anymore than any other team buys their team. The organization is simply doing their job. They do have a legacy to uphold. I do have issues with them though we have had our own experience with them in the playoffs when the A's should have WON!!!! How do you come down to one game to win then lose 3 straight!!! OH YAH!!! I remember...JEREMY GIAMBI!!!! and I love Miggy but dangit! and JETER STAY ON YOUR SIDE OF THE DIAMOND. Hmmm...now that I think about it maybe I should hate the Yankees! I kid, I kid.


Now can the A's just get some pitching!?!?!? Love ya Duke but you can't do it on your own!
