If The Season Ended Today: Week 9 2009
With each passing week, it becomes more and more evident that the Saints and Colts are the top two teams in football. Until someone proves otherwise, they still go down as my Super Bowl picks, although, this weeks Colts-Patriots game could prove to provide a reason for doubt. If the season ended today, the Colts, Patriots, Broncos, Bengals, Steelers and Chargers would represent the AFC in the playoffs. In the NFC, the Saints, Vikings, Cowboys, Cardinals, Eagles and Falcons would make the playoffs.

On Broadway
If you're a wrestling fan, you know that one of Ric Flair's famous catch phrases is "whether you like it, or you don't like it, learn to love it, cause it's the best thing going today". That statement can also be applied to the 2009 World Series Champion New York Yankees. Say what you want about the team or the organization, you can't take away the fact that they are champions. And to the victors, go the spoils. And winning in New York means a victory parade up Broadway on the Canyon of Heros.
Even though the weather was more condusive to football, Yankees fans started lining up on Broadway long before the sun came up. With apologies to New Year's Eve in Times Square, the biggest outdoor party of the year was today at City Hall Park. There were marching bands, speeches and even a performance by Jay-Z. Not to mention, the Yankees receiving there keys to the city. This definitely made up for the pep rally that was held last week and only lasted seven minutes because of the rain.
Now, with all the champagne gone and the victory parade over, the Yankees head back to the stadium to empty out their lockers. Some will leave temporarily, others will leave permanently. Either way, they will all leave as champtions. Too bad they won't have long to enjoy it. Joe Girardi was quick to remind us all that pitchers and catchers report in 96 days. . . and I can't wait.
