   Yes, but did the Yankees give Bloomberg the key to Yankee Stadium?

   Gosh for years the crybabies were lauding–can’t buy a championship. Now that they win–it is all because they bought it.

   No, Howgozit, as I posted elsewhere, this is has been common knowledge for years now. There’s been amusement (especially by Red Sox and Mets fans) that despite their money they were still mismanaging their team, but the pattern of wins is still higher than anyone else.

   Um, excuse me for asking, but what’s a pattern of wins?

   I thought if you won the most games, you won the penant and the World Series…so are we considering patterns now?

   The supposition has often been that the team with the most money buys the best players and wins the most championships. The Yankees had the highest payroll in baseball during the period between 2001 and 2008, yet, didn’t win any Series titles…

   Correct motive–much higher. They have also had to provide millions to other teams which appears that most the other owners did not invest in the team, but only themselves.
