Yankees Choke… Again

I think it is about time we finally retire the “Yankees Suck” chant in favor of a “Yankees Choke” chant. While losing their ALDS series to the Tigers in four isn’t nearly the cataclysmic choke that was their 2004 ALCS loss to the Sox, it is pretty pathetic for a $200 million plus payroll team chock full of All-Stars, especially since the Yankees owned them in the regular season (5-2).

Does anyone want A-Rod? This guy might as well just play it out for a perennial basement dweller like the Rays, Royals or Pirates. At least he could switch back to playing shortstop. The shame of this is that Torre will most likely lose his job and that is undeserved. I don’t think it is his fault a clubhouse of millionaire All-Star babies can’t get the job done. It is the fault of ownership for pushing that the team be made up that way.

Georgie Porgie still doesn’t get it; you can’t buy a frickin championship…
