Teams have always bought rings. Look at the salary difference between the great Yankee teams of the past and a team like the St. Louis Browns. It was similar disparity--just not in the millions as it is today. There are rare examples of a budget-conscience team winning, but it's the exception rather than the rule.
As for the original theme of this thread: If the Red Sox continue to spank New York like they have been this weekend and someone is getting released, traded or fired. George doesn't like to be embarrassed on his birthday. Especially by the BoSox!!!
