This year has certainly been a disappointment thus far, to say the least. This got me thinking - which would be more embarrassing for Yankee fans, the debacle in the '04 ALCS, or this '07 team missing the playoffs entirely?
On the one hand, you have a team that had success by getting to the ALCS, but they completely collapsed, becoming the first team in MLB's rich history to blow a 3-0 series lead in the playoffs! And if that weren't bad enough, it was to the Boston Red Sox, allowing them to go on and win their first world series in 86 years! That had to hurt badly, and had to be very embarrassing.
But then this year, you have a $200+ million team that is struggling to just get to .500. The team looks heartless, the offense is feast or famine, the pitching is very inconsistent, and they just look lethargic. For a team that spends over $50 MILLION more than any other team in baseball to miss the playoffs would be a joke. But it could happen to the Yankees.
So which is worse?
