Hate the Yanks, but it's hard not to root for guys like Jeter and Matsui. Wish I still had the tape of Jeter pitching back in the day. Congratulations.

No they did it with better players who can handle the pressure and dont choke like Philly.

All this bitching about the Yankees and thier money. If the bought the WS, why has it been 9 years since they won a WS??? Based on yours and other belief, they should have won like 120 by now. So what if the owner has a lot of money and wants and can affors the best team! The Phillies lost casue they suck, plain and simple.

live in Boston but grew up in NY (HAHA Sox fans HAAHAHAA)

Being a Yankee is much harder than being any other type of player, NY is the toughest place to be a player (Sox fans think Boston is but they are dilerious by far, LOL) Every team that plays the Yankees brings their A++++ game, and everyone wants to be a Yankee! You cares if your play for the Kansas City Royals or beat them! LOL

They won last year over Tampa Bay when the yanks didn't make it to the playoffs.


I'm glad baseball is over and we can finally move on to man sports.

Yankees fans are like Steelers fans.. -yeah i said it- so keep quiet and prove me wrong.

Dollar bills don't put the bat on the ball, the ball in the glove, or assure quality starts by pitchers. I don't care for the Yanks, but the "buying championships" argument is a tired motif. Philly had their moment in the sun last year. Time to give credit where credit is due.
