Our Yankees have only two of the top 20 players for 2021 (per MLBN's top 100). I don't think we have been in the position of "taking what we want," do you? The Angels, Braves, Dodgers, Indians, Mets and Padres all have two in the top 20 as well, and the Angels, Braves and Dodgers pairs are both in the top 10. The two Yankees come in at 11th and 14th. 
With all that being said...I still very much like our chances this year (with reasonable health and some good fortune). But this, "We will outspend everyone" and "I'd make players perform better by instilling fear into them" is nonsensical. You (and I) are fans of one of the most historically successful programs in all team sports, yet you have this bully mentality about being the best. 
Do you know why so many people [B][I]HATE[/I][/B] the Yankees? Because of fans like you and your feelings of entitlement (that's a word that won't likely sit well with you) towards always being the best. 
Give it a rest. Show some humility. And remember, as far as Hal and the Yankees organization are concerned, they're happy to have you as a diehard fan. But if you aren't happy with them and their lack of accountability, and you therefore never purchase another piece of memorabilia, or another ticket, or watch another game on YES, they won't notice. They won't care. Your opinion matters more to us, mostly due to shear entertainment value, then it ever will to them.
