    I think the Yankees should hire the top 3 free agents at each position, buy the Marlins and Royals, and create their own league with just them and the Red Sox. The Red Sox can have the Rays and the Brewers. That way they can have their own Farm System, and I won't have to watch them buy championships or hear the aforementioned smaller clubs cry about it.

    Let me ask a question: if the Yankees don't make the playoffs this upcoming season, will you guys continue to whine about them "buying Championships"?

    Yes, the Statute of Limitations on the previous three purchases hasn't ran out yet.

    To be more accurate, I am sick of hearing about the Yankees and the Red Sox in general. I live in the south and I see more Yankee/Red Sox games than I do Braves games. I am not a Braves fan, but they are only 2 hours away. ESPN has a lot to do with it. They are infatuated with those two teams. God forbid Brett Favre should join one of them. They would have to change their name to ESPNYB.

    I only jumped on the Yankees excessive spending because I am warming up for the regular season.

    I have never said that sir. Let them do what they want, it will all come back at them in the end.

    Why should any fan ?

    The point is what the Yankees did this off season made sense for them but at the same time didn't for the the other 29 teams.What is certain the additions of AJ/CC & Tex AT THIS POINT IN TIME changes the Yankees from 3rd place in the East to AL East favourites.

    Thus from that point of view it can be deemed,& rightly so,that the Yankees are 'trying to buy' a 21st century Championship - which has eluded them.

    Uh? Should the Yankees care if it makes sense for the other 29 teams? Simply put, **** no. The Yankees should do whatever they can to win. Just like every other team should do.
