Blackshirt Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 You have to be kidding. The Yanks landed A Rod, and are keeping Jeter!! A Rod will probably move to 3rd. So the starting lineup will look somethin like Lofton, Jeter, A Rod, Matsui, Giambi, B Williams.... etc. Wow. The BoSox got deeked again. Everyone else should just quit. It just aint fair.

Eric the Red Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 You can all lick my ass. It's not the Yankees fault all of your teams take the money and stick it in their pocket. Steinbrenner and the Yankees are following the rules that are in place. There's a Luxary Tax that the Yankees will and have been paying. Basically, if your teams salary is over a certain amout, it will be subject to a tax. That money that is taxed is distributed to the smaller market teams, like Kansas City, like Cincinnati, like Minnesota. The money is intended fot hose teams to go out and get better players. But like many folks in the Midwest, there all cheap and pocket all the money. So if your team in consistanly in the basement, its the fault of your owners and weak fan base. Nobody can pack the stadium like in the Bronx. Its got that college atmosphere. Quote Link to comment
HuskerBob Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 I would have to agree wita hoardin of money that goes on ina lotta the markets. chicago being on of em for many yrs. but hopefully the tribune finally realizes you havta spend money to make money and makes some more moves to get the job dun. but they also know that they can jus sit on the money like eric said and still fill the seats b/c cubbie fans are the most loyal fans ever next to skers fans. But alladat aside the yanks are a buncha frickin bums. period. Quote Link to comment

Redout Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 Like what's been said. They are following the rules. To many teams are not putting their tax money into there teams but rather into there pockets and then blaming the Yankess for there cheapness or incompetence to run a damn team. Quote Link to comment
