Yankee's Win, Yankee's Win.....blah blah rrrrrrggghaah

Damn Yankee's win. (Strike 1) Looks like they may pull it off again. Win the World Series that is. In case you couldn't tell I am not a Yankee fan, and more so than not they are the reason or one of the reasons I don't frick'n like Baseball. It's too one-sided. Money talks, all the rest go home early. Too many teams just don't have a chance with the big money market in baseball. Something needs to be done to level out the field. Teams like the Royals and Rays don't have the same cash flow as teams in L.A. , New York, Chiccccaaago and Boston. Yes they have the draft and get advantages when losing takes place over draft positions, but as soon as the player shows significant talent and impresses the Yankee's and or Met's, they are bought away. You can blame that on some owners and greed. If I have a player who you'll buy for 50 million verses how much I'll have to pay him to keep him then sure he's for sale if the outcome assures my profit. The overall loser in this is the fans.(Strike 2) The fans like myself who have gotten discouraged and don't even watch baseball and only go to maybe one game a year and that is to take my son or daughter for the experience of what use to be known as Baseball, Apple pie and hotdogs. Not anymore. What's a guy to do? Thank goodness for the NFL and their salary cap. OK so some teams in the world of the NFL aren't doing so hot either but the playing field is definitely a little more even. And it's a lot more exciting to watch than an 10 to 1 beatdown in baseball. If I didn't know any better I'd say the Angel's will win the next game just to bring in more revenue for the teams and to that I'm saying , yeah it's rigged. (Stike 3 your out)
Damn Yankee's!
