I don't think he believes it's his birthright to win every year.

I think he believes if he works to assemble the best team on & off the field he will win.

(And yes that translates into paying big money to attract the talent he wants.)

Of course it doesn't always work out, be there ya have it.

This mentality that the season is a failure if the Yankees don't win the World Series is absolutely insane.

The goal of a baseball team is to win the WS. How is it NOT a failure if you fail to attain that goal???
