New York - City of Losers

[Shoeless Moe]

With THAT payroll year after year to win 1 WS in the last 20 years is pretty pathetic.

The Florida Marlins won their second World Series in 2003, with a payroll of just $48.8 million, the Yankees payroll in 2003..........$152.7 million.

A NY fan in denial, big surprise.

Money does not buy you Championships. It helps a team get to the playoffs, but then it's a combination of a bit of talent, a bit of luck and a bit of timing. Denial would imply that I haven't accepted the Yankees not winning, and that's clearly not the case, they are not the Franchise they once were. I'm very grateful of all the success I've seen my team have in my lifetime, it's more than many get to see. If this is the end of the line for the Yankees winning then so be it, I am okay with that. The Sox played some great ball last night, Eovaldi really stepped up, pitched a great game. I don't think they go all the way, but they have great chemistry, and clearly feed off of one another. Good veteran leadership in that lockeroom as well. Cora has done a great job with that team.

I hope you have a good night, and enjoy the rest of the playoffs.

The last 20 years, 4 (Baseball, Football, Hockey, Basketball) major sports titles by city:

Boston (4 teams) 12
LA (7 teams) 9
San Fran (2 teams) 6
Chicago (5 teams) 5
Pittsburgh (3 teams) 5
San Antonio (1 team) 4
Miami (3 teams) 4
Tampa Bay (3 teams) 4
New York (8 teams) 3
Detroit (4 teams) 3
St Louis (4 teams) 3

and to expand, NY sends out 8 teams each year. 8 x 20 (years) = 160 (3 Titles) = pathetic

THUS NY IS THE CITY OF LOSERS! This is not a discussion, it's a fact.

I feel like your missing a bigger city of losers.
Minneapolis (3 teams) 0 championships. To make things worse if you include the hockey team in St Paul that would be 4 teams and no championships.

Yah and you guys do have George Floyd Square. That's got to be quite the draw to athletes.

But no Minnie not even close to Loserville NY and it's surrounding areas.

To have 8 teams, THAT amount of money. etc., and continuously suck year after year is just embarrassing.

And their loud mouth fans.....just karma baby!

As for the Giants 2 Titles, yes I mentioned that earlier in the thread, 2 of NY 3 titles in the past 20 year, only 1 less then San Antonio who has 1 team, not 8.

Why leave out Minneapolis?

Twins haven't won in 30 years
Timberwolves haven't won in 30 years (never)
Wild hasn't won in 20 years (never)
Vikings haven't won in 60 years (never)

I would love to have the history of the New York teams, personally.
