Hate to rain on your parade, but the Dodgers have a worse record than the Yankees. They benefit from playing in the league's weakest division. The Yankees, on the other hand, play in what very well might be the toughest division since divisional play was instituted.

To quote Michael Scott, "Suck it up, we all have problems."

The Yankees will be back next year with another big budget, zero chemistry team that will probably make the playoffs.

[RickD]

Well the Dodgers did make the playoffs and despite a worse record it looks like Torre pulled off another stellar coaching job and took a struggling team into the playoffs!

[5dodgers5]

Yeah. I think if our players stayed healthy and Andruw Jones delivered as promised, we'd be lookin at a 90 win season

And while I'm taking nothing away from the Yanks, my whole thing that started this all was meant as a joke.

Not nessecerily at all...a lot of declining players will be a year older. The Rays will be even better, the Jays will be better.

Hell, even the Orioles will be better.

True that. And if we don't win the division, or make the Wild Card, you had better believe that no Oriole will be whining the way Hank Steiny did. Good Lord, but that made me want to puke.

Indeed.


It would be kind of funny to hear an Oriole whine.

Everyone in the country is like...Batimore has a team?

How does Jake say it in the movie Major League when he pops into the dinner date his ex is having with her fiance and is told by one lady that she didn't think Cleveland still had a team?? Something like;

"Yeah, we have uniforms and everything"

Filihok, what would you do if you saw him walking down the street?

right now i'm in Albuquerque. There are lots of people named Jesus. None of them claim to be the son of and gods.

If I met a Jesus walking down the street who did claim to be the son of a god, I would probably think he was...well...wrong.

THE YANKEES ARE ELIMINATED!

They cannot make the playoffs anymore!

Tampa Bay just won against the Twins! It's over! The Yankees are OFFICIALLY finished! It's a miracle!

And just 1 short of the Braves' record for trips to the post season! Just in the nick of time!
I certainly didn't need to see ANOTHER Yankees record!
