Thats my whole point there. Every Met fan that i know would say the Yanks bought their chips when their "core 4" were all from the farm. We paid to keep our own. Sure we stole a couple away but not like people make it seem. Steinbrenner always put his money back in the team not other business interests. Now the Mets are doing what Steinbrenner did for years and now it's all good. I don't have a problem with them having this gigantic payroll to finish 2nd and a first rd bump, i just have an issue with whenever it's anyone but the Yankees it's all good and no one has a problem.
I'm 46 btw ... and **** the Mets
