Payroll is through the roof, too many egos, from the owner down to the players, tool box fans, unruly press... shall I go on?

Well, let's see, since 1933 when the Dodgers officially shed the Robins and became the Dodgers, let's see the scores:

Dodgers:
Gone to the World Series: 16 times
Won the WS: 6 times
Beat the Yankees in the WS: 3 times

Yankees (since '33)
Gone to the WS: 32 times
Won the WS: 22 times
Beat the Dodgers: 8 times

UHHHTHANK YOU.

Oh, well, we'll keep Brooklyn.

But if you look at the Yanks payroll the last 5 years, to get beat down like they have should be damn near impossible, wouldn't you think. Just goes to show the better team wins, not a better collection of good players.

This mentality of big spending will eventually cripple and/or demoralize this team until they finally go into a rebuilding period.

Yawn. All I know is, last Dodgers vs. Yankees game I went to, the Blue Crew laid the smack down.

And why is it with all the talent, they mismanage players and personnel so horribly? Clemens and Pettitte leaving was the latest goof.

I think having Johnson tank was excellent.

Dodgers will be back, just you wait. Yankees era is over, you rattled off a few titles (bought and paid for). So. Most of the players couldn't wait to get out of there.

Best team money can buy...? Not any more.

Serious though, Posada is retiring, Torre is sick of the boss, I don't see A-Rod and Jeter getting along forever, Johnson looked terrible... what next?

I hear Manny Ramierez wants a trade...
