You notice that teams that haven't been losing against the Yankees much that year get investigated, but when was the last time anybody investigated the Yankees? LA is the same way, other teams either go along with the LA teams program or theres an investigation.
The Houston Astros and the Red Sox, teams that had been giving the Yankees trouble in the past few years are the teams that got investigated it turns out, which seems to be what happens when the Yankees don't win a title that year. The same time winning every year isnt interesting, some people root for the team that's going to keep a season interesting over impressive stats and a winning record. Some people root for the team that never wins because they're everything the Yankees are not, that doesnt mean they're okay with their team losing.

When jumping sends you into space because of how fat you are, or when your fat flaps are big enough to propel you into space.
