Please don't insult us with the yankees don't really have an advantage stuff. They have a massive advantage. Your a fan? Deal with the fact that your team starts with a headstart, a big headstart.


But Texas lost last night for one reason that almost all teams lose 5 run leads late. The bullpen. Looked very shaky. They should try to make Rich Harden a RP. He would be much more effective pitching 2 or 3 innings twice a week.

And are there really any Ranger fans? I have never met one.

Average players can play pretty damn well when their efforts are pile on efforts (that aren't mandatory to thev team's success.) Yea, the Yankee reliever is homegrown, but the Yanks never had to worry about losing him to free agency(everyone knows they will pay anything it takes.) Other teams lose their players to free agency. They can't afford to keep all of their homegrown players. The Rangers bullpen is vulnerable to the top teams. Again, if they've got the most expensive reliever in baseball, then they hold last night. So, don't tell me the Yanks win because they're game. They win, because they keep their best players, and buy any of the other teams' best free agents....FK Indiana...If you were relevant, you'd have an MLB franchise. You know how a very Conservative state goes for Obama? Well, White Trash was probably too busy buying Cigarettes, Lotto, and fake Chilli-Cheese Nachos.

Yeah, because Cliff Lee is making peanuts.

Who the hell said anything about the Yankees being game? All anybody has said is that it's a sissy attitude to excuse the Rangers for choking that game away because the other team gets paid more.

It doesn't help that the state's hero looks like he was beaten at birth, and is from a town called "FRENCH LICK."

You just encouraged a team from San Francisco (simply because they're a rival of the area I live in. )

I know what he makes. Point is when Cliff Lee's on the hill for you and lose, you shouldn't be able to complain about the other team's salaries.
