You could always go the route of explaining how 20 of the 27 championships came before free agency, and the Yankees used their excessive number of farm clubs to lock up the best young players and keep them away from other teams.

And subsequently point to the reduction in disease as evidence that there was definitely never a problem to address in the first place, making them right all along.

So it drew a dick, then got stuck in the mouth of the Suez and there aren’t enough seamen with enough thrust to push it out. And the longer it’s in there, the more screwed we are...
