Every Yankee fan should read the details of this news corp deal and think about the $189 mil plan. They will be getting hundreds of millions of dollars a year at the end of the deal and get a $400 + million bonus up front. Half paid now and half paid before the Yankees reduce their payroll.
If I don't think this team fields a competitor team because of the $189 plan, I won't be renewing. Team already clearly has an attendance problem
Attendance problem is huge.

Just looks bad, especially with how much money they have rolling in. Honestly, no team in baseball should be competitive with them aside from maybe the dodgers with how much money they make. People would go crazy but they could have a $250 million plus payroll of they wanted

I hope they took notice of the attendance problem after the postseason.

Honestly, I don't think they give a fuck. Looks bad, but they are making bank, that's the least of their worries. We'll see, man, but I don't necessarily think this is the Steinbrenner family is we are used too

Definitely not. I wonder what The Boss would think of this.

Why in Gods name is there an attendance problem? Ticket prices too high?

I don't get the unlikeable thing outside of Arod. Jeter, Pettitte, Mo, Cano, Granderson, Ibanez, Ichiro, Kuroda, Robertson, Hughes, Joba are all very likable players. And while not my favorite, a lot of fans loved Swisher.
We have talked about the stadium thing quite a bit. Aesthetically, I think it's great, but they have sapped every ounce of enthusiasm they can out of it. Just a different experience. I love going regularly because I love watching baseball in person, especially my favorite team, but it is definitely a different vibe than it was.
A run like 2009 would get the place rocking again, I would hope.

I completely agree with your first statement. I really enjoy most of their players and their personalities, even Swisher.
So I assume a problem with the stadium is too many corporate seats then.

Keep the food options, get better beer options, have as many "Yankees Clubhouse Stores" as you want but stop advertising on the gigantic screen every 12 seconds, lower good tickets prices, let me scream at players (and some fans) and not get kicked out.
Annnnnnnd, just like that I get my renewal. I really don't know what to do this year. I could use all my dough for the wedding and honeymoon and doubt I will get to many games next year with everything going on but just love knowing that I have face value playoff tickets.

Yep, I'll renew.
You have to, That's how it starts Cliffy, next thing you know, three years have gone by and you look up from your desk one day in August and realize you haven't been to a game in years and with a little one on the way well it doesn't look good this year and then you'll want to take your kid, but you'll want to wait until he's or she's old enough... So now it's 9 years later, Don't give up the Game for Family, make room for both! Your Happiness depends on it!!!!

HA. well that is about all the convincing I need. And yeah, I don't want to give up my seniority either, which is decent since they count my old stadium tickets even though I got locked out for a year. And I say I would go to a lot of games even without the package, but who knows. Done.
I'd like to re-sign Soriano but i don't think it's gona happen.
Phelps will take the 5th spot
Hmm, i liked Phelps, but i also liked him as a long reliver, Nova's always so shaky that first inning so he's no good out of the pen., Well i'm sure Giradi will let them battle it out in preseason.
So if the Yankees stand pat essentially keeping the same team as last year they haven't accomplished anything except getting another year older. :?
Welcome to the Hal era, I think George wouldn't have given a shit about the upcoming 189 cap.
Yeah the 189 is a pipe dream. So what we get is a season long of Home Run Derby and if they're lucky enough to get into the playoffs a probable early exit again. :fp:

New stadium atmosphere, I think.
I'm surprised to hear both of these things, but then again i've never been to the new stadium, but I've always been a huge fan.

I Love it!!! of course I'll never be able to afford to get anywhere near the field ever again.
Done. Back to normal.
Yep, I'll renew.

1) C.C.
2) Andy
3) Kuroda
4) Hughes
5) Nova
