I still think we need a serious salary cap... maybe a minimum, and a solid business model.

Here's another point though, for you and SF.... How many championships have the Yankees won in the past ten years? Last year, and before that, 2000. They won 3 in the 90s total, and before that, their last one was in 1978 I believe. Point being, it's NOT like they are winning every year. So this "buying championships" argument is kind of ridiculous don't you think? What, 6 championships in 30 years??? Yeah, we are really screwing the rest of the league.....
