You know, obviously, you put it in a five or ten year window, but I know.

I know you didn't see the dynasty.

I know that maybe you probably barely remember 2009.

Maybe that was your first real memory of a baseball team.

that you don't remember that the Yankees traded for Nick Swisher.

We're perfectly okay with Nick Swisher playing first base.

And then they said, hey, wait a second, we can get Mark DeShera?

We can do that?

Let's do it.

You want to know why?

Because we're the Yankees and we can.

After signing the two best starting pitchers on the market in A.J.

Burnett and C.C.

Sabathia.

A lot of Yankee fans get mad and say, don't you dare put the Yankees and Dodgers in the same breath.

That we built our team off of homegrown talent, and they're just going out there and buying stars, which is true.

There's a difference in that, that the Yankees did build these teams off of the backs of their homegrown talent.

But you know how they were able to keep them together and win multiple championships?

They spent money to keep them.

And they supplemented them with stars like Roger Clemens.
