    I agree with jim_dandy the players are bought out,not because they want to play for the Yankees.It is the fact that money is involved,easy as that.I honestly don't really hold alot of repect for the Yankees as they are an all star team.How can they lose if they are holding all the best players in the league.You know all the best players are going to want to go to the Yankees to get the green,money makes the Yankees.I don't think alot of people realize this,but no other team can spend as much money as the Yankees do.I have respect for the teams that can win the world series without buying up all the all stars of the league,and yes the Yankees are a bunch of sellouts(that means all those all star players that sell themselves to the Yankees).I stopped watching baseball for the fact the Yankees pick up all the best players,it gets old watching the same team win the world series year after year.

    Yeah true kinza,but apparently B2D327 doesn't see it that way.By the way I can't wait till football season comes.Been waiting for that to come for awhile now.

    Nah not really,apparently you don't know what you are talking about.Read what you wrote,they play but it is mainly for money.I can point out more lines that you wrote,that just make it even worse.The Yankees have money and I admit that,but the only reason everyone wants to go to the Yankees is over money.No player plays just for the sport,it begins with the strikes over money which irritates the hell out of me.They get paid enough,and to go on strike for more is ridiculous don't you think,that was awhile ago not sure if you can remember that.The Yankees spend more than any other team in the league on players,this is a fact.If you can't stand the heat,stay out of the kitchen.I read perfectly fine,and to view a person in your own perspective is kinda childish don't you think without even knowing a person.It is kinda funny how a so called fake thug can point out the obvious in your post,not to mention that was ignorant what you said.How am I gonna speak on how you view the Yanks,man get yourself together I just did.You shouldn't blame me for the actions they do,go complain to the Yankees if you don't like how they run the team.The funny thing is that you still don't see that even now.The Yankees don't win all those world series without talent,and everytime they get someone I bet you they pay a pretty penny for everyone of them.Unless you can name a time when they didn't have an all star team and won the world series.I will be waiting right here for when you actually come up with an answer,because I know for a fact everyone of the world series they won they have had alot of talent.Baseball players how I view them,baseball is there job and I am sure they will try to go to the highest paid team available when they can.I was wondering haven't you watched a commercial with a baseball player in it,do you think they do that to be seen on TV.The answer is NO,they get paid for it as any other sports celebrity would do.That is pretty much the end of discussion for right now.Unless you can point out some decent information you are not really making a good arguement.The way the Yankees are run is crooked man,sorry you don't see that even now.You shouldn't believe everything you see on TV,whatever you watched that made that much of an impression should get an academy award.

    Oh by the way kinza,sorry if this is messing up your thread man.I wasn't actually trying to mess with this thread,but I used to watch baseball alot,and stopped watching it because of the Yankees.If B2D327 had probably viewed pron,maybe his views on the Yankees wouldn't be ellaborated to the truth so much.Hey B2D327 actually supply something,before shouting off like you know what you are talking about.I think as far as I can tell,you have no clue what baseball is all about now.The reason I stopped watching it is because there is no enjoyment of watching the same team actually one team the Yankees or any New York team win year after year and get bragged up like they are something special.I think any other team can win the world series if they had the money to spend like they do on players.If you can't see that,then your are blind man or someone is feeding you some BS.

    First of all I am a girl, secondly you're talking to B2D327 right? I don't really watch baseball, like I said before only the World Series games. B2D327 is also the reason jim_dandy left this thread.

    L-Burna,you may as well give up.When this guy gets hit with actual facts he resorts to name calling and personal attacks.

    ok, let's straighten out this whole mess. The title of the topic is "any Yankee fans here", but it seems like I'm the only one who can admit it. A real fan follows their team win or lose. Either there's a bunch of "closet" Yankee fans in here that won't admit to it until october comes around or a bunch of people who hate their own teams so much that they justify it by Yankee bashing. I don't see anyone else saying, "I'm a Cardinals fan or a Dodger fan". Don't blame the yankees because your own teams can't make it to the series. It's their own fault. Isn't the object of any game to win? Plenty of good players are available right now but some owners are either too cheap or too stupid to pick up good, solid players and give certain coaches a chance. All that talk about the Yankee market is a bunch of crap. You mean to tell me that the only good players are all on the Yankees roster? Go take a look at the free agent market and tell me your team couldn't use a few of those guys. If other owners weren't making any money they wouldn't own the teams but they won't admit to that and spend some of it to draw fans back to the stadium. Unfortunately, the fans don't see that and I find it pretty hard to believe that NY is the only place where people are willing to pay to see a game. I'm not gonna go through every team that made stupid mistakes by thinking one player was gonna be their salvation and put all their eggs in one basket but certain individuals will take what I say out of context and turn it around to make it look like they know what they're talking about. You have to spend money to make money. Tell your home team to do that and maybe you won't be ashamed of them.

    Well I am a San Diego Padres fan,yes the team is not always winning the world series or even close to winning any and that is my favorite team.The fact that every other team uses a salary cap,which you haven't really mentioned yet.To kinza it is Jamaica slang,wasn't really intended to call you a man my bad alright.I never said I was ashamed of my team,but I am ashamed of just baseball in general how it operates now.The Yankees who are crooked enough to use more money than any other team in the league.They don't even use a salary cap,which shows with all the best players they have.I never said name other teams that do what the Yankees do.I am saying name a time when the Yankees haven't spent more money than any other team and grabbed the best players of the league to win a world series.You can't name a time,so no you don't know what you are talking about.It isn't the fact that they spend just money,it is who they get in return.No other team can get as many all star baseball players like the Yankees do,and I just told you no other team can spend as much as the Yankees do on a baseball team.We are not talking about a little money either,we are talking about tons of money here.The teams that are in the league spend what they can,using a salary cap on there players.If one of the baseball players asks for too much they let them go,do you see what I am getting at here.It isn't regular players that ask for all the money,it normally comes from all star players.The Yankees spend as much as they want because they don't follow a salary cap,and get all the best players in the league to win all these world series.I don't think there is any respect with a team full of all stars that are bought in order to win these world series(don't you think that is crooked,shouldn't they put a salary cap on the Yankees).If you ask me any other team could do the same thing if they could blow as much money as NY does,but the fact is no team can because they follow a [bold]salary cap[/bold].You won't see a team spend more than what they can,it isn't caused by being cheap on the management part.They just can't,they are given a certain amount to spend and the Yankees spend as much as they want.Do you get the picture now or is it still not clear.

    So for the
    No,it isn't possible as no other team is crooked enough to spend as much money like the Yanks do,the salary cap is involved with the other teams.When has the salary cap been involved with the Yankees,oh yeah that is right I don't think it has ever been applied to the Yankees.

    By the way jim_dandy you are right man,it is like talking to someone brainwashed into believing what they want to believe in.Oh well I guess some people can't see how crooked baseball is now.

    Here we go. BOO HOO, my team sucks because the Yankes have all the good players. You want to talk brainwashed and you go and bring up a salary cap that doesn't exist. Then you talk about crooked but you defend the owners of other teams. The reason there's no salary cap is because it would force the crooked owners to open up the books and reveal how much revenue they actually make which isn't gonna happen so they can keep fans in the dark and cry the same bs arguement. Steinbrenner's not the one lining his pockets with team revenue. He's got his shipping business (that's probably responsible for everything that's brought to your city I might add) and puts the baseball revenue back into his team. Here's some advice, stop burnin' Ls and open your eyes. Now go take a seat in the back with jim_dandy and see me in a month when you guys can come up with another lame excuse for your teams sucking like there's only 40 good players in all the major leagues. lofl!

    I take a backseat to no one,I chose to leave this thread, because I think the friendliness, and harmony, of afterdawn is more important than your senseless rants.

    pussies

    you chose to leave this thread because your bs replies get shredded everytime you spout one along with a lame excuse. Don't act like it's spilled over into any other threads and is causing any disharmony at afterdawn. It's stayed in the "Safety Valve" where the administrators gave us a forum to speak our piece. That just goes to show where you're really coming from and how much you really know about what you're talking about, LIAR. Bye bye, you've been exposed.

    don't make weak attempts to give it if you can't take it.

    Yeah it should be closed I see no reason for a narrow minded person such as B2D327 to keep shouting off like he is making a good point,when have you made a point B2D327.Once again B2D327 you got me there man,with your lame excuses.Quit bending over for the Yankees and you might not end up as a bat boy.Good point jim_dandy there shouldn't be flaming for no reason or is it because the truth hurts B2D327,even still why are you so offensive over the truth.I honestly think it is too much for you now that I see you whining constantly.

    Who said I wasn't dishing it out,it seems to me the only thing you said was Booh Hoo my team sucks(which I totally agree with you,the Yankees do suck).Do I hear crying on your end,because I think you should probably leave baseball alone because you seem to be too emotional over the sport.When is there ever crying in baseball,well now you see someone crying over the truth.Let it go B2D327 it hasn't helped you nor have you ever made a good point,want a binky to whipe your nose and tears.It's ok B2D327 one of these days you might actually be able to talk about baseball.You should probably stick to getting a boob from your Mommy and leave the sports to adults.
