Although his methodology may or may not necessarily be sound (using language normally associated with statistical procedures doesn't necessarily translate into good analysis), but his conclusions are as clear as day. At any rate, remember the REAL reason why other teams and their fanbases hate us: ENVY. They hate the Yankees for being successful, and they'll try ANYTHING to punish them and bring them down to their level (and literally even the playing field). And if they succeed in crushing teams just for winning more than they did, no team will excel and no legends will be made. The Yankees weren't entitled to anything to win. They used their resources well (but not great--they squandered a lot) and they EARNED their way to the top. They DESERVED the World Series because they all worked so hard (as seen w/ A-Rod's ascent) and did not use steroids (of if they did, they were no dirtier than anyone else). IT'S OURS. That's why I'm proud to be a Yankees fan. LET'S GO YANKEES!!
