the twins are still underdogs? isnt this their second consecutive division title? immediately following a strong 2nd place finish? hasnt the core of the team already been together in the majors for 3-4 years? and together even longer in the minors?
its nonsense like this that irks me. thw twins are NOT underdogs. if you want respect and credit for being a good team, you have to drop the underdog label. you CAN'T have it both ways.
they went to the ALCS last year. the a's, red sox and yankees DIDN'T.
THEREFORE, the twins are the FAVORITE this year. you hear me? the twins are the FAVORITE. theyre SUPPOSED to win. how do you like them apples?
i'm constantly amazed at how ridiculous baseball fans are when it comes to the yankees. they are no different than any other team. there are plenty of teams that have big payrolls and SUCK. its not just about payroll. and again, the yanks payroll is so high cuz they have 6 people with 4 rings and a few more with 1 or 2 or 3 and you have to pay for those rings.
also, maybe some of you clueless dolts will finally realize after seeing the dbacks and angels win the last two world series and then do nothing...how IMPOSSIBLE it is to win a world series, make the playoffs again the next year, and WIN THREE MORE PLAYOFF SERIES. (let alone three years in a row and 4 out of 5) the extra rouns of playoffs raise the bar of difficulty soooo high its insane. none of the dynasties of the past would ever have won as many series playing 3 rounds.The yankee team 96-00 is the best team of all time. this isnt a team to pick on or complain about but to revel in and enjoy. the same way great teams of the past are always fondly remembered. thats what this team deserves. not petty jealousy.
im sorry, but this thread was disgusting, and thew twins are the underdogs thing was the final straw. maybe theyll win the world series and be the underdogs again next year?
