Yankees won the world series again the other week...for the 27th times! No team in the professional sports has ever accomplished that.
Yes, it's true that the franchise has spent ca. 1 billion dollars since 2000 and they are notorious for their spending spree and overpaid/overrated/pass-their-prime players, conveying huge amount of distress to the people of NYC thanks to gigantic ego of 'The Boss' and his endless threats of moving the franchise to somewhere else than Bronx, destroying 'The house that Ruth built'- one of the trademarks of the the big apple- for a lavish, costly top-notch club house right across street and so on...
But the fact of the matter still remains, and I have to repeat myself, that they have won the world series for the 27th times and no team, I repeat NO TEAM, in the professional sports has ever accomplished such a milestone. For that, they do deserve awful lot of credit (and that includes everyone involved) despite the methods of club's executives have been (and will be?) highly questionable in the recent past years.
