  1. As Ted said, probably He is immune to the compulsion that others have to prove people wrong hahaha
  2. Everything is fine... the work, the family, and hoping that I finally go to Boston this year. I'll let you know which series and if you are around we shall drink a couple of cold beers hahaha.
  3. LOL! Anyway... How are you doing compadre? How's the weather in NYY? Are you going to Ft. Myers again this year? Hopefully everything is ok with your family.
  4. This all along. Some people simply doesn't understand this. Do not worry, U? is obsessed with you with me, with SS, Fred, Jacko, divinity and even Papelbon, LOL!
  5. mind your own business, didn't you say that?. And no, I wasn't referring to the post of this thread. Again, mind your on business.
  6. No in this thread, the other one, and yeah! I took it as a joke, but then came U? and the rest is history.
  7. You asked me if i were a NYY fan and I took it as a joke and let it go in the other thread. I used to let it go as well, but his attacks are turning ridiculous and all over the place.
  8. Do you speak Spanish? I wanted to say: "el menos indicado para decir esto eres tú" No problem rj. Maybe I should have said "the least likely to say this is you" hahaha IDK. I really appreciate your advise.
  9. Which part? And why? Please explain us.
  10. Probably I should have wrote "the least indicated..." LOL! No problem, I'll take note. Anyway, Because he said "mind your own business... Thing that he obviously doesn't follow.
  11. Then ignore him, why bother?
  12. You are the least indicated to say this. You have had problems with almost every poster in this board since your personal attacks. Your "Reading comprehension, common sense, you are an idiot" ******** rhetoric that you have used to claim yourself better than other posters needs to stop. For once and for all you must understand that this is about opinions and nobody holds the entire true. Said that, every time you behave nasty, I will call you out. Count on that, brah.
  13. I think he said something like "the MF Yankees whatever... I think that the MF thing speaks by itself LOL. Again, I agree and disagree at times with him, but this crusade against him is getting ridiculous.
  14. Sure, *******.
  15. I've been reading with more detail SS's posts and I still don't understand all this crusade and bullying against him. While he talks about baseball (you can agree or disagree), posters attack him. This must stop. If they do not like his posts, ignore him.
  16. hahahah oh jacko boy, in other words we are screwed up, aren't we? hahaha I expect a close race. I do not see a clear favorite, In fact any team can win the ALE IMO. I fully expect a 90-91 wins next year. Sure, I do not expect to be the best Offense again, but it will produce a lot of runs again. JBJ, XB and WM will be ok. Napoli, Pedroia, Vic and Ortiz will be the main engine. The AJ-Ross duo will cover Salty's ass specially far better behind the plate. The Nava-Carp-Gomes platoon machine will be ok. Our pen is stronger even Koji dropping a bit. Aside CB who is made of glass, Our rotation is in shape, and as you said we have some depth. I see a competitive team, sure probably not as good as 2013 but still very competitive.
  17. Since they hold only 1/3 of the RSN these days, I think it is less, IDK. But still, you have to count the money that FOX's paid to NYY. On the other hand the RS in 2011 made 270 in Net of stadium revenues used for debt payments. How much did they make via RSN? I have no idea. Regardless the number, While the Red Sox are making a lot of money as well, I do not think they are in the same position in order to spend like the NYY or LAD do these days.
  18. How much was their share via RSN in 2013?
  19. A) The 130 M is only a "point of start" since I do not know YES expenses, sure it is probably the half or less of it, but nobody knows. What I know is this: The YES Network, the team's 34%-owned regional sports channel, is the most profitable RSN in the country and had over $400 million in revenue last year. Plus you have to add the Fee they received from FOX in 2012 around 450 M. Yankee Global Enterprises is a three-engine money-making machine. TEAM, RSN, LHM. Where's the rocket science here? Hence even conceding your 65 (Still do not know where you got it), you have to add it to Its Net of stadium revenues used for debt payments, which is around 427 M plus 25 M from LHM and the fee that fox paid front for the RSN stake to NYY which is around 450 M. They have tooooons of money. Is it unlimited? nobody said that, but they can still spending like drunken sailors. It is not as complex as you want to present it.
  20. My bad MVP, I meant some C-level's BASE SALARY aside the CEOs (ex. CIO). Still some CEOs of great small and medium, and even big companies are not making what a low-profile baseball player makes in base salary in a year. Hell, Very, very few people around the world command a 20 K/month base salary. Probably you are one of them hahaha.
  21. Bimbo, FEMSA, CEMEX, SAP, HENKEL, etc...
  22. It is Net of stadium revenues used for debt payments, which is around 427 M, plain and simple. You have to add the other two-engine money-making machines (YES Revenue 136 M(34%) & LHM 25M) It is 588 M in 2011 and without considering the fee that FOX paid last year for the YES stake to the NYY which is around 450 M. They have plenty of money to set a 200 + M team, easily.
  23. Until baseball is not a profitable business anymore. Baseball players' salaries are insane even for those who are in the bottom. The floor is 500 K, isn't it?… Hell, Tons of CEOs of great companies doesn't even make the half of that salary.
