No Yankee fan here, but this "buying a team" thing doesn't really wash. The guts of this team are Jeter, Pettite, Soriano, Posada, Williams and Rivera. Every one a home-grown Yankee.
Aren't the Red Sox the same team who let Fisk, Burleson and Lynn slip thru their hands because someone in the front office didn't mail their counter-offers in time to beat the deadline? And the same ones who sent Clemens packing because he was washed up?
