Originally posted by no1marauderI don't know; it wasn't the Atlanta Braves...please enlighten me. I don't care about the Boston or Milwaukee Braves, as you can't classify them the same way one could the Anaheim Angels of Los Angeles with last years Anaheim Angels. Bobby Cox out manages Joe Torre every year using mid-level players and a lousy bull-pen. The "Aura" and enthusiasm of Bobby Cox outshines the corpse-like appearance of Joe Torre anytime...nothing personal against Joe; he'a a likeable guy, plus he used to be a Brave, so he's got some worth to him...

You know what? OK - 26 World Series, right on. But the Yanks have the same number of World Series titles in the last five years as the Phillies and the Brewers.

Originally posted by no1marauderPirates don't need no stinkin' tithing from the Yankees😛 As a Yankee fan can you say "Berra can only turn and watch as Mazeroski's fly ball clears the wall?" Then again maybe you're not old enough to remember those days...or choose not to
Seems they've "got it done" 26 times, far more than any other franchise. People crying about how their team doesn't have any money have my sympathy; perhaps you could start tithing to the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Yankees' income derives from their loving and loyal fans, 'tis a pity that they have more of them then the Toronto Blue Jays.
