gro could not sleep last night and was flipping through the channels around midnight and saw a bunch of guys in white pajamas with blue stripes yelling and celebrating like they won something... anyone catch that? Mr. Fergusen?

Any of you LLPP crazy cats in the Bronx last night?  Looked like a phenomenal atmosphere.  Heard ticket prices were north of a Grand to get in the door.  Yahtzee!!!

JT: What is the exact route of the Parade?

EDIT: -K to Enginegro (nothing personal, just business)

Yeah I saw it.  It was amazing how genuine they tried made the celebration look.  About 4 were genuine, the rest are posers.

Going to be much fresher for the ticker tape parade tomorrow.

U89,

What the heck are these guys talking about? Ticker tape parade? Where? For what? Did something happen last night? Was order restored in the Universe?

That is rich coming from a Bahston fan.  C'mon LewDoggie, you guys are one in the same.  Nobody is fooling anybody else here.  Let the offseason sweepstakes begin!!

Yeah ok buddy.  There was a time when the Yankees were good, because they were the Yankees.  There was a mystique about them.  Then the 2000's hit, and it all came to a crashing halt.  1 WS in 10 years after spending BILLIONS of dollars.  I'd be more embarrassed to be a fan than anything.

The year 2000....the last time Susquehanna was over .500 & the last Yankee World Series....seems like eons ago.

JT is happy but tired and hurtin' puppy.  Two straight nights of partying on school nights. Couldn't bag work either yesterday or today.  Supposed to go to a charity function at BB King's in the city tonight, but there's no way.  The donation has already been ponied up by JT... he's going home at the end of the day and going to bed. Going to be much fresher for the ticker tape parade tomorrow.

aww, you poor ****ing thing.

About as embarrassing as having the second highest payroll in baseball for nearly a century and only two recent WS titles to show for it.

Starts on Broadway at Battery Park and proceeds up to City Hall.  Other non-professional athletes like astronauts have taken the same ride for their own parade.

That's why they play the games.  Titles aren't guaranteed.  Actually, this team was more like the Yankees of the 90's than any other Yankee team since 2001.

Yeah, just like it.  They probably would have beaten the NL in the All-Star game.

New York Mets   $149,373,987
Chicago Cubs   $134,809,000

Philadelphia Phillies   $113,004,046
Houston Astros   $102,996,414

Quite a discrepancy there.

Because they were the highest paid team in the league?  Or because they actually won the world series this year?

Sorry, top four and not top two this year...sure...between us and the rest of the league there is a big gap, but Boston of all places cannot claim pauper over the last 100 years.  Wait until they sign Bay for over $60 million.  Yeah...poor Boston...
