Can $978.1M buy?

ZERO.

That's how much the Yankees spent on overpriced and underachieving baseball talent over the past 6 seasons.

I LOVE IT!

"You kind of get tired of giving the other team credit," third baseman Alex Rodriguez said after another terrible October. "At some point you've got to look in the mirror and say, 'I sucked."'


Those are words I've been waiting to hear ever since Alex left Seattle!
Is it true that Lou Pinella will be the new Yankee coach? That will be interesting!!

I haven't checked the scores, did the Tigers eliminate the favored Yankees on Saturday night? I kinda get that tone from this thread!

Watching the Tigers celebrate was awesome.

I asked this question after game one? What is wrong with the Yankees?
Maybe the owner will learn by now money can not buy a world series ring after six long years.

In a short series any team can win. Just look at the Tigers!!!!

Apparently it is all Joe Torre's fault.....

............and that's exactly what the fool Steinbrenner is thinking.
This is coming from a RedSox fan, I think that Joe Torre and Derek Jeter are very classy people and players.
Steinbrenner, however, is on of the most classless. Never equate money with class.
Yes, before anyone else says it, Yawkey was pretty classless but that was another unenlightened era (the 1940s).

I heard a rumour that George Steinbrenner called the devil to see if there were any chance to bring back Billy Martin through reincarnation. George offered him $1B to help him with that act. The devil said that that wasn't enough. He said that his normal price was his soul. But, George had already sold that to him to get Joe Torre.
