The difference is that Torre did win one before the "drought"

more than one but yeah...that's the difference.

and i'm not sure who said torre was a hero & that the yankees were doing great.

i was only pointing out the world series appearances & division titles to igy because of his laughable "moving backwards with ruthless efficiency" comment.

Who's to say that Andy won't win four straight some day?

Sorry, even I can't sell that wagonload of shtein.

the yankees went from winning every world series...to getting run in the playoffs every year...to now winning wild cards (at best)...to soon being old run down no farm system bums

IGY, the Yanks won the division last season. Granted, it was because of the tiebreaker, but they still won the division title.

pointing out facts doesn't work...i already tried that.

they're still winning division titles & making the playoffs every year...you know, moving backwards with ruthless efficiency.

Merely winning divisions and making the playoffs is moving backwards when you're the Yankees.

Why are you even arguing this fact, hunt? You've told me countless times that the only thing that matters when you're a Yankee or a Yankee fan is winning the World Series, yet now, it's all about making the playoffs?

Color me confused, bro.

ice grillin you · December 17, 2005, 12:46:06 PM

lemme explain again

five years ago: winning world series
since then: getting run in the playoffs
now: fighting for the wild card
very soon: looking up at toronto

lmfao...nomar picks LA over the Spanks.

I'm not sure why that would make you 'laugh your farging ass off,' but OK.

You haven't told me that winning it all is the only thing that counts for the Yankees and their fans?

I could have sworn that you said that many times on the EMB.

nope...i've said the exact opposite.
that's a misconception held by most, if not all, yankees haters....sure, winning it all is great, but it's not an all or nothing situation. not all yankees fans think the same as that whacko steinbrenner.
