So I guess its official that the Mark Texeira sweepstakes are over. The NY Yankees are getting him for 8 years and $180 million dollars, giving them the four highest paid players in all of baseball. Rumors had Texeira landing with my Boston Red Sox, but you can never count the Yankees out of any deal that means they can spend a ton of money. Anyway, congrats, I guess, to all you Yankees fans out there. But remember this, the Sox still have more championships this decade than you do and just ’cause you have spent all this money doesn’t mean you can beat out the Sox or even the Tampa Bay Rays for the AL East.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Do you think the Yankees will ever learn that they can’t just buy a championship? I’m not sure they ever will.
