I hated it when Lasorda turned to the girl behind him for some help, only to hear her say "I'm from New York". Another media entity which doesn't seem to understand how much many parts of this city HATE the Yankees, probably as much as Bostonites do. -- "Whatever you do, don't stick your head in the oven" - Keith Hernandez, on how to end a batting slump

but what about the blue jays? what about the orioles? is it in the best interest of the sport to have teams like that in a situation where they can't possibly compete over 162 games? maybe the yankees are the only problem -- with their payroll almost twice boston's -- but i really think MLB has to do something. -- Ben

I'm too lazy to do the websearch right now, but I suspect you'd be hard-pressed to find a group of teams in the NBA/NFL/NHL quite like the AL East. Putting aside the top to bottom money issue [since those salary caps reduce the range of spending to fairly small #s], I would not expect to find a grouping in these other sports where the year-end outcome is felt to be such a foregone conclusion. This year, with the Red Sox slipping out of 2nd place, is the first time since... what, 1998?... that the AL East has looked at all different come October.
