I always assume the Yankees were consistently in the playoffs
So would have I even at the time. It wasn't so easy to keep up with all that was going on in baseball back then though. Imagine trying to watch all the games, or even just the games you wanted to watch, without the internet?
I wonder if that was around the time that Yankees started spending big money to be in the top always? I kind of just presumed they always did that.

I guess the newspaper was big for those sorts of things. Reading the sports section as a kid and checking out the league standings with my grandfather are some of my favorite memories. About the Yankees spending, yes I imagine they always spent a lot but maybe they were just straight up getting beat/unlucky for awhile. But I have no idea. I'll have to look more into the history one of these days.
