Yankees Suck!
In the words of immortal [Alex Foley], Get the fuck out of here! Thats what the Cleveland Indians said to the New York Yankees by eliminating from the playoffs with a [6-4 victory](http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=271008110) last night at Yankee Stadium, and thats what owner George Steinbrenner will be saying to manager Joe Torre if he follows through on [Sundays promise](http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2007/news/story?id=3052904).
Despite a $200 million payroll, more stars than the entire Milky Way and the knowledge that they were playing for their managers job, the Yankees gagged their way through the playoffs, choking at every turn. In Game 4, they were just 1-for-15 with runners in scoring position (a pattern through this series), while the Indians had more two-out RBIs in the series than Yankees combined run total. Alex Rodriguez had another lackluster postseason (4-for-15, one RBI) and New York failed to in the World Series for the seventh straight season.
After the game, a teary-eyed Torre certainly sounded like a man who was moving on. This has been a great 12 years. Whatever the hell happens from here on out, I'll look back on these 12 years with great, great pleasure, he said. The 12 years just felt like they were 10 minutes long, to be honest with you If I have some options, Ill look at it because I'm certainly not ready to move somewhere and not do anything.
