Naisy is back, horray.
Whoooa! Whoooa! (I think that is American for, stop horse stop.) NOW...what about the chowdah?
Sure. Every team makes good and bad decisions...the difference is that the Yankees can afford to make far, far more mistakes than anyone else, and not feel it (Hideki Irabu, anyone?). They have a ridiculous margin of error to work with.

The more money you have, the less efficiently you have to use it. I may know more about baseball than say, you, but if you have twice as much money to field a team with, it probably won't matter.

Or, to put it in terms fitting to this venue: the Yankees are a $200 million movie that makes $210 million.
I don't pay much attention to baseball since I moved out of St. Louis (used to be able to walk to games)...but...how does overpaying players make you win? They have to be doing something else right....
Also, you used the clam chowder line last year (only you oh-so humorously spelled it "chowdah"). You could've at least said something about bleaching our Nomar jerseys. Contemporize, man.
Dude, anytime you want to explain to me how it makes any sense to root for the team that routinely wins by exorbitantly overpaying players, rather than through superior management, be my guest.
Drunk.
God-zir-ra!
Or even Giambi.
And next year when Gimabi is healthy again...the Yankees are going to have a REALLY good line-up.
