They went 1-8 in the WS...

How many WS wins do the Yankees have in the past 15 years?

How many does your team have in your lifetime compared to mine?

5 for me

Last year. I suffered in silence…

“Houston limped out to a 7-19 record and trailed Seattle by a season-high 10 games on June 18.”

My team has 2 in my lifetime.

They were swept in the WS....

And the Dodgers just had a gentleman’s sweep of the Yankees

I'm no mathematician, but I believe 5 is greater than 2.

They weren’t irrelevant whenever Miggy was there in his prime.

Just because, "Weekend Update: David Ortiz's Post-Retirement Plans - SNL":



eta: not sure why it doesn't start at the very beginning...

I’m no mathematician but the Yankees had the highest payroll in every season from 1996-2013 except for 1997. That’s what, 17 out of 18 years? Why did they only win 5 over that timeframe???

That’s when the Dodgers overtook the mantle as the Evil Empire. Not quite the Yankees, but still leading in payroll 7 times from 2014-present.

This is what happens whenever college football is in the sh*tter and my baseball team has inept leadership.

7 out of 12 years (58%) if you include this season. Not the same as 17 out of 18 years (94%).

Any Knicks fans?

Oh it’s more for the Dodgers if you go by ACTUAL payroll and not active.

And it wasn’t 17 of 18
