Richard this has been my problem with the Yankees since George passed away, his kids are running it like a "buisiness" to where as George ran it like it was his favorite boyhood toy that he always wanted to show the other kids on the block up, sprucing it up constantly putting more money into it to "one up" the other kids. His kids IMO just see this whole thing as a cash cow to increase their wealth. I once saw an interview that George did on HBO to where he talked about why he had an endless budget to improve yankees. His sentiment was that there were some new yorkers who determined if their day was good or bad by how well the yankees did the night before and he loved new york and wanted them to have more good days than bad. He love his team, cried when munson died, love him like a son he said. You think this crew cares like that, they would have only creid over jersey sale revenue lost if he died. This new yankee ownership will miss alot of playoffs in the future if they dont go back to the old mans way of doing things, Thats for the love of the game not the love of money. Thats why cubs piss me off as well. I feel ownership there is content to keep team sucking as long as they keep sold out everygame.
