Just when I start to think...

...there is no cosmic justice in the universe something happens to make me reconsider.

Today my Orioles completed a three-game sweep of the hated New York Yankees, whipping the pinstripers 8-4 in Camden Yards today and moving into first place in the AL East. It's the first time the O's have swept the Yanks since 2000.

And, according to Fox Sports, Yankees' owner George Steinbrenner is none too happy about having a $206 million payroll and a last place team. That's right. $206 million! That's $85 million dollars more than the team with the second-highest payroll (the Boston Red Sox) and a whopping $132 million more than the team that just smoked them three times in a row!

Put THAT in your pipe and smoke it, George!

Mario,

I agree with all of your excellent points.

However, they don't make me hate the Yankees any less.

Sorry.
