'The Yankees' Hidden Agenda,' mentions money the team has recently spent, article on Dugout Central by Thomas Wayne, 12/30/08:

• Comment by Alex J. Hidell,

"The Yankees don’t hurt the game,

• the media coverage

• of the Yankees kill the game.

• They pay so much attention to the Red Sox/Yankees that when guys

• regular people don’t know who the hell they are.

The Yankees generate revenue for the sport and pay luxury tax. They definitely don’t hurt the game."

• (An excess of 'coverage' and 'attention' are not necessarily positive. Personal and corporate bias are what rule the day).

The Colorado Rockies in the World Series and who knew?
