This sentence isn't logically sound. If the Yankees, who had all the money, couldn't overcome George's "ineptness", wouldn't that indeed prove that money is isn't "everything"...at least as it pertains to this discussion?

If money is everything, as it seems that you are contending, wouldn't they have won despite george's poor decisions?
