Get a life...The Yankees are only the most successful sports team in history. Oh, and how many titles do the Angles have??? Hmmm?

Oh, and how many titles do the Angles have???

Who are the Angles? They don't sound like a series contender. :-)

Does anyone know what the Angels payroll is compared to the Yanks? That would be a funny stat!

Er,....I think that's exactly why people love to "hate" the Yankees!

[Diddle E. Squat]

Aw c'mon. The Yankees have plenty of trophies, and unfortunately plenty of big mouth fans that love to rub it in. So turnabout is fair play. Hopefully you are not one of those fans. Better luck next year.

I fully expect some sore loser to get this thread pulled.

Good for the Angels! We must have "diversity", after all...

Sorry Heff, but this isn't a competition to determine which team is the most successful in history - it's to determine the best team of 2002.

I'm personally pulling for the team that Bud Selig says shouldn't exist - the Minnesota Twins

Cinderella, your carriage awaits!

The problem witht the Yankees is they have ruined major league basebase. Or I should say Steinbrenner has ruined it. Starting with paying Catfish Hunter a cool million, Then Reggie, then every other big named star from small market teams. The chances are a small market team will all most never get a shot at the brass ring. Because the Yankees have a big market and loads of money. It is especially sweet when they get their butts beat inspite of their huge advantage. When theres no team left to challenge because they're all broke. It's a hollow victory for the Bronx Bums. Keep braggin oh Lord of the Flies.

Not this year, obviously. What's the payroll of the Yankees compared to the Angels? Clemmons, Mussina, Wells and Pettit probably make more than the whole damned Angels team. And for what? A chance to go home on October 5th?

[muir_redwoods]

You Yankee fans brag when you win and drag out yesterday's newspapers when you lose. Predictable and shameful. Right now is what matters and they lost.

It's only a game remember ;-)

[Paulus Invictus]

The Angles don't have many victories, but The Saxons do. Do they count?

The Angels now have one big victory against the hated Yanks, and every year is a new one so the old Yank victories are meaningless in light of this big Yankee loss. Steinbrenner lost too! What a joy!

[PokeyJoe]

correction, they are the most overpaid successful sports team in history - and that's why they suck. =)
