Going!

I’m on a train going there now. Can’t wait.

I can't wait!

I’m calling in “sick” for work so I can go and see this.

To be completely honest, I have no idea what they do at the parade. I was 14 when the last won, and I never really paid attention to the parade. I also didn’t live in NY until I went to college here, and so I couldn’t go. And since there was no YES

I guess im about to find out.

hope to see some pics later tonight!

Im watching on ESPNNEWS

Not only does Molina “have” to catch Aj. But was it also Mandatory they shared the same float? Lol

by Yankz09 on Nov 6, 2009 11:37 AM EST via mobile reply actions  

lol

I thought the same thing.

by ACPhoenix on Nov 6, 2009 11:42 AM EST up reply actions  

Funny --

how Mo closed out the parade on the last float.

Also --

For the parade they should have put Coke in a 1992 Corolla … the back seat … with tinted windows.

Mets fan here

so I don’t really care about the parade, but one question: Is Lebron there? (I’m also a Knicks fan)

I'd hope not...

if he wasn’t so good at basketball…he’d be what you call a frontrunning fruit (aka…Cowboys, Yankees…and while I’m sure he doesn’t say…he probably grew up a Bulls(hit) fan).

DO WHAT JERRY HAIRSTON DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by FreeBradshaw on Nov 6, 2009 1:13 PM EST up reply actions  

oh, he's definitely a front runner

but I would want him to be at the parade, to see that winning a championship in NY is about a bajillion times better than winning one in Cleveland

I would argue

winning a title anywhere is equally as sweet. A title is a title.

by GMan83201 on Nov 6, 2009 2:02 PM EST up reply actions  

A title in NY is always better

best sports city in the country.

Although I’m a Lakers fan so I could care less about Lebron.

by nyyrocks29 on Nov 6, 2009 3:41 PM EST up reply actions  

i dunno...

Cleveland has what…NO titles, in any sport?

I’d love for him to be a Knick…but I just can’t stand bandwagoning fans and there’s a ton of Cleveland ones…who don’t call themselves Cavs fans..they’re “Lebron Fans”.

Let those cretins stay rooting for Cleveland.

D-Wade. Boom.

DO WHAT JERRY HAIRSTON DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by FreeBradshaw on Nov 6, 2009 3:46 PM EST up reply actions  

OMG i thought i was the only one..

D-wade=Favortite player…

really hoping for D-Wade and Amare next year.

watching Amare beat the crap out of Boston…Knicks need that.

I have no idea if its possible, but watching the Knicks game last night Van Gundy said it best.

IF these guys really wanna win, they gotta structure the contract in order to get better players on the team (well,, JVG said Lebron should take the league minumum if he really wants to win…but still, the idea is good.)

I’m watching on MLB Network. I thought it was hilarious that a fan actually had a “Thank You Kate Hudson” sign. Brilliant.

Who the hell was in charge of the music?? That’s got to be the most hideous choice in music for the ceremony!

Are..

They really playing the Six Flags song while handing out the key, seriously?

that’s what I said! I’m about to chuck something at the screen. whoever was in charge of music should be FIRED!

DUDE THAT MUSIC SELECTION --

Who made the decision to play that song on a loop for the presentation of the keys to the city? I’ll never listen to it again.

And who the hell decided on this lineup? goes from players to coaches back to players. how about grouping them like a sane person?

Yankee security needs a key to the city? Really?

anyone else feel like this is a bit of eulogy for the Boss?

They way they’re talking about him, it’s like they think there’s no chance he’ll be around for another championship.

by long time listener on Nov 6, 2009 2:02 PM EST reply actions  

Nah

I’m sure that was Tex, completely loosing his mind and thuggin’ it.

That was the most horrendus live performance I've ever seen.

It looked like absolutely nobody was into it.

Hey.

I’d rather see shots of the fans with hilarious signs then to see Sterling looking dumbfounded in the background with Jay-Z rappin.

It's a shame everything has to have a soundtrack nowadays --

The annoying-ass music forced me to put the volume down to a whisper. Totally idiotic.

From the parade!

The only problem with the whole thing was the Subways. They ran horribly & skipped parade stops on certain lines.

Do you have it in their original size? it would be awesome to have them printed at my wall if you could make them available.

Great except for that techno song during the key ceremony

Anyone know where I can get that hat A-Rod is wearing?

It looks like a fedora hat, you could begin asking for it like that in any shop that sells clothing or hats.

by Mikhel on Nov 7, 2009 4:28 PM EST up reply actions  

missed the parade, but...

Still thnking Yankees and 27 rings. Now much as I respect the Pittsburgh Steelers, and how last year they “won one for the other thumb”, I was wondering what the Yankees could do with their rings:

Of course one for each finger OF BOTH HANDS!!! Matter of fact we can add 10 toe rings. Could use two as earing, and another as a nose ring. We would still have 4 left over.

I guess we can go Prince Albert and put one down there (ouch). lol
