Don't misinterpret my comments. I don't blame the Yankees for spending the way they because it's allowed, but I blame MBL for not having a real salary cap. While it's true the cap hasn't prevented certain teams in other sports to dominate, it's still disheartening to see nearly every big-name player on the free agent market go to the Yankees. I'll never disrespect some of their individual players, like Jeter and Posada, but I do take pleasure when they stumble with that huge payroll and have a jerk like A-Rod on their roster.
