Shouldn't have said that, I don't think anyone had noticed.

a 1 hitter....yeesh..poor Yanks


BaseBall Season - Devious - 07-17-2004

Stilll the best record in baseballl


BaseBall Season - MarkyGman - 07-19-2004

still the highest payroll in baseball.


BaseBall Season - CodeWarrior - 07-19-2004

Still the team with the best attendance in baseball, therefore the team with the highest income in baseball, therefore the team who can afford to have the highest payroll.

If other teams could manage to nearly fill the stadium all year round, then maybe they could get some money for their payrolls.

Payroll

Attendance

Yanks have 200,000 more fans in total for the entire year than the L.A. Dodgers and have $90 million dollars more in payroll.

those must be expensive tickets :>


BaseBall Season - CodeWarrior - 07-19-2004

The highest ticket price in LA is $60

in New York: $95

Yep, quite the difference.


BaseBall Season - MarkyGman - 07-20-2004

Surprisingly the Yanks don't have the highest ticket prices.
I'm surprised Baltimores is so high.

Holy crap, boston's is unbelieveable, but, there is a 600k gap in attendance.


BaseBall Season - WoolyGoat - 07-26-2004

It's got nothing to do with attendance...It's all about the YES network (ditto NESN for the Sox). Private TV networks equal crazy $$$ for the owners, it's that simple.


BaseBall Season - CodeWarrior - 07-26-2004

They've had lots of money even before Yes.


BaseBall Season - MarkyGman - 07-26-2004

still ruins the game...... in my opinion firm salary caps are the way to go.

I like the fact that in the NFL every team has a chance....xcept maybe the Bengels.......cuz well they are the Bengels.
