Ladies and gentlemen, your 2010 New York Yankees.

[Kingdom]

A+ on the thesis, B- on the content, A on direction

[browntown653]

Explain the grades, por favor?

[Kingdom]

Well, any time the thesis is making fun of the yankees, that's an auto-A plus plus. For the direction, also "A" material because it's amusing to read the developments. But the content really lacked Kei Igawa. He's the key.

[browntown653]

He only lost actuals and went 6-11, 6.04 in AAA. There's Kei's season.

[Kingdom]

On the bright side, you would have won 4/6 divisions. Hyuk

That sounds like what the real NYY should have been doing for the last 3-5 seasons... they get away with players past their prime staying healthy.
