My, How Far We've Come

Not too long ago, at least as far as historians are concerned, New York considered Milwaukee and Wisconsin to be Bush League. In 2008, New York has stolen away Wisconsin institution Brett Favre and brief hero CC Sabathia, all the while considering other Sconnie athletic talent like Ben Sheets, Mike Cameron, and Bill Hall. Now, New Yorkers seem reliant upon building their present and future success on buying and bartering for talent from the former "Bush League." While we here in the cheese state may not be able to compete with the cash of the burroughs, there is some satisfaction in the fact that they need to buy our talent to compete.
