Opinion of New York Yankees

[Suburbia]

What is your opinion of the arguably the most successful franchise in all of sports?

The rivalry between the Red Sox and Yankees may be heating up tonight.

Evil empire, Proving money can buy championships for over 100 years.

Really? The 1996-2001 Yankees were the best teams in baseball history. The 2009 championship was especially sweet for the city.

The late 20s and mid 50s Yankees would like to have a word with you behind center field at Yankee Stadium.  And it was a day game, so Mickey and the Babe are already plastered...good luck.

Those Yankees were good, but you can't underestimate the '09 Yankees. They won 103 games. 103 games!

As a fan of an elite team, I like other elite teams. I was rooting for a Yankees-Cardinals World Series last year.

The Yankees were great in the '20s and '30s and '40s and '50s and early '60s because they had the best front office to find the best players, not because of money. There wasn't any free agency then where money would be useful. If money were the only thing that mattered, the team that dominated the twentieth century would have been the Giants, who had far more resources at the beginning of the Harding administration than did the Yankees.

Uh, the 2009 Yankees had the 18th-best winning percentage and 50th-best Pythagorean winning percentage in franchise history, meaning that they were below-average for a Yankees team since the acquisition of Babe Ruth.

I would have loved a Yankees-Cardinals World Series in 2015 too. It would have had higher ratings than the Mets-Royals World Series last year. The Yankees and the Cardinals should have met in the 2009 or 2012 World Series.

The Yankees just lost to the Red Sox in a four game sweep at Fenway. A lot of New Yorkers are upset.
