Why, because they try to buy championships and still can't win? They had 3 times the payroll of the Kansas City Royals and finished with a worse record than the Royals.
I would agree with you in the era of Mantle and Ruth, but today baseball is so screwed up.
Off the top of my head I would have to say the Lakers are the best franchise in the history of sports.

You're just jealous that your team is too poor to actually spend money and compete.

You're thinking way too much in recent years. I just mean looking at the entire picture, outside some brief bad times, they've been a big-time team forever. Virtually every year they're expected to compete, and it's been like that since the 20's. I don't like how baseball is run either, but any team could be spending as much as they do, but that's just not how it's been. I love years like this where they fail to make the playoffs despite their massive payroll, but looking at it objectively it's hard to put anyone above them. As far as the Lakers go I'd give to to them in terms of the NBA, but in all of sports I still have to say the Yankees.
whoisthis:
History of Sports? Na. From Ruth, Mantle, DiMaggio, Gehrig & Berra to Jeter & Rivera. It's the Yankees.

It's honestly not even debatable; Yankees.

LOL...YANKEES HAD A HEAD START. IN 65 YEARS, LAKERS ONLY MISSED THE PLAYOFFS 5 TIMES.
SINCE 1947, WHEN THE NBA BEGAN, THE LAKER FRANCHISE HAS WON 17 TITLES ... YANKEES 16
