With all his money and power the MLB will never do anything to or about him and his operation.

I don't have anything against the players personally, or the fans, but baseball needs a salary cap, so teams can stop trying to buy championships. Although, I have to admit, making themselves easy to hate, for guys like me, has created a reason to continue watching the playoffs once my team is out of it. I automatically have a reason to follow and cheer for whatever team is playing the Yank-offs.

Being a yankee fan I have to admit they haven't been doing to well in post season play as of late. So you must take a look at my previous post. When did the yankees win most of their world series, before or after free agency. Players want to play for a proven winner. The yankees haven't won a series in 9 years, don't you think they have lost more than any other team. Talent produces results not payroll. I'm pissed that they spent all this money on players and they never came through. Besides most of these large contracts in professionals have so many incentives in them they never reach that number. A-Rod is not making 33 million a year to hit .286 avg. 30 hr 100 r.b.i. he is expected to lead the leauge in all those catagories with an MVP in the All-star game,MVP for the season, and MVP for the world series( Which by the way they haven't won since picking him up)This year just might be the year We will wait and see, still a lot of baseball to play.

You're kidding yourself if you don't think the yankees win every year largely because they can buy the best players. A small-market team like the KC Royals hardly stands a chance. Yankee fans are so used to winning that they think those few times they don't are proof that the league is fair the way it is. But the truth is that the yankees are in the playoffs almost every year. Most of the other teams get to the playoff once in a decade, if at all. That being said..... I still like Boston. Go Red Sox!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Baseball needs a hard salary cap (they'll never get one). Obviously, there is a HUGE competitive imbalance between large and small market. One of the main reasons the NFL has virtuually lapped MLB in popularity is the perception that year to year a team's fortunes can change. The perception is largely false since the well run NFL franchises are usually good, but still most football towns have hope at the beginning of the season. The Pttsburgh Pirates have had seventeen straight losing seasons. The once proud Orioles have been awful for a dozen years. This comes from a lifelong Yankee fan who saw Mickey Mantle playing centerfield at his first game at the OLD Yankee stadium. The Yankees play within the structure of the league, but the structure needs to change or baseball will continue to alienate sports fans.

I automatically have a reason to follow and cheer for whatever team is playing the Yank-offs. Are you sure they are buying the World series? No, but they are TRYING to, as is every team with a lot of money. Whether it is the Red Sox, Dodgers, Tigers, etc. It is not the Yankees that are the problem, it is the system. But generally speaking, the Yankees always seem to have the most money and get the most sought-after free agents, therefore becoming an easy target for people like me to hate. I don't begrudge Steinbrenner for doing what I would do if I were in his place: work the system and spend whatever I could afford to get the best talent. THAT is why they need a salary cap. To stop the team or teams with the most money from ALWAYS competing for a championship, while the teams with less, have to scrape a claw just to have a shot to stay competitive. Ah, **** it. I would still hate them.
