" I'm Bob Ryan this is what ten point -- with you today Christopher Guest room for you wanna join me congratulate the New York Yankees on occasion when -- 27 world championship. If you don't -- the live with it. And that we just don't cut -- to topical with the team of the decade we never began with the Yankees winning 2000. And it ends in 2009 if you believe that that's the decade with them winning once again. I could put the numbers here of the decade. But Sox yankees. And but bookings of one World Series twice let's talk to went to American League pennants yankees won four. With division titles the Yankees went eight the Red Sox want. Number that -- had won 920. Games in the decade for 568 winning percentage. Yankees won 965. Games 4597. Telling you look at it I don't know why we have been having discussion -- or can you make a case for the -- like versus the Yankees face and I."
" Think you definitely can make it so let's. And I'll tell you why what I don't think you community of the decade when you have arguably the greatest choke job in the history I. Could point out and yes they can also you lost to inferior opponents in World Series yeah Arizona Diamondbacks in the Florida Marlins well."

" A -- upside to match up the -- that we have a New -- you.

All that has the posters bother Red Sox broke the yankees' string of division -- all right so no one else's money you know these -- of the raise -- actually got back. But the other thing I would say is -- tragedy here of Quito and -- well you know we just wanted 95 wins gets isn't a plan that it will that's the whole different story I think that -- me. It would pursue of the division title little bit harder fewer those times in June 2005 ended up tying it came down to. You know had to hang what we can give the -- to cost -- victory as much as the Red Sox have money and outspent you and sometimes wisely so -- not. The Yankees. It was a billion that they spent I'd just start tells us today. And espn.com that it was one point eight billion I'll bet you -- since -- Yeah that's that's incredible I. What did you I think you -- money into thinking it's a decry that Red Sox fans is -- that's a great point two billion -- well so we're gonna say he's got a -- I'm gonna have to give it to them."
" Overall but. Chris is gonna go Red Sox I'm gonna. And about it nice little bookend for them but still the penny -- those levels we have to read it."
