One more while I have time to spare!

Salary caps are supposed to make certain sports have more parity, right?

Over the last 20 years, I see nothing but parity in baseball. Especially from the teams that have won the championship. It is really somone new winning it every year and besides the yanks from 97-2000, there really is no "dynasty" at all.

Detroit was the number 3 spender last year and finished dead last in the central. Tampa Bay was the second lowest spender last year and made the world series. does spending really matter? I say spend it if you got it, but ya still got to play the game the right way. You can have all the talent in the world but if you don't play good ball you arn't going to win.

If the Yanks don't win it this year, I am going to be pissed because I know this team is different from the teams they have fielded in the last 9 years. This team has chemisty.

In sports like the NFL and NBA, who have salary caps, you don't have parity at all. The Patriots have won or been near the super bowl for about the last 8 years. In the NBA, either the Lakers or San Antonio have represented the the western conf. in the NBA finals 9 of the last 10 years. I remind you, they have salary caps in these sports and there is no parity at all.

what are you guys really complaining about when you talk about the yanks big pockets? Just finding something to be mad about cause your team couldn't cut it this year?

As in baseball and not the other sports...better luck next year guys, money in the long run doesn't matter! The team that plays the hardest will win it all. The team that has the best chemistry will win it all. Just like every year.

Go yanks!
