All Eyes On New York

Found November 04, 2009 on Bugs & Cranks:
TEAMS: New York Yankees

As of right now the New York Yankees are three outs away from their 27th World Series Championship. One might think a city with 27 baseball championships would take their celebration lightly, but I don’t think that will be the case here. Especially when you consider it’s been nine years since number 26… and, well, it’s New York City. Here’s a live shot of Times Square courtesy of UStream. I don’t know who (if anyone) is reading this tonight. I don’t what (if anything) we’ll see. But I figure it might be an interesting evening in the city. Let’s see what happens.

Waaaah.  Payroll.  Waaaah.  $1.4 billion.  Waaaah.  The Yankees spent over $423 million to sign CC Sabathia, Mark Teixeira and A.J. Burnett.
