Much like how Dallas did with the Superbowl or the Bulls in the NBA. When a team shells out big money just for the highest profile players, at one point it's going to turn out like David and Goliath.
Off-topic: When exactly did the Bulls buy championships? Here are their salaries during the 1995-1996 season, their 4th championshp and the team that set the record for most wins in a season (72-10 record):
1 Michael Jordan $3,850,000
2 Toni Kukoc $3,560,000
3 Ron Harper $3,120,000
4 Scottie Pippen $2,925,000
5 Dennis Rodman $2,500,000
6 John Salley $2,402,000
7 Luc Longley $2,300,000
8 Bill Wennington $1,000,000
9 Randy Brown $900,000
10 Dickey Simpkins $845,000
11 Steve Kerr $800,000
12 Jason Caffey $627,000
13 Larry Krystkowiak $335,000
14 Jud Buechler $300,000
15 Jack Haley $225,000
16 James Edwards $225,000
On-topic: Fav team is the White Sox, fav player was Joe Crede until he signed with Minnesota this past offseaso, most hated team is the Cubs, by far.
