New York City will celebrate the Yankees' 27th World Series title with a celebration parade today.  Parade confetti will consist of ticker tape, newspaper, and shredded Mets' season tickets.  

Majority Leader Harry Reid is considering a plan for higher payroll taxes on upper-income earners to help finance health care legislation.   So apparently, health care willl be paid for by the New York Yankees. 

The New York Yankees won their 27th World Series title. It couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of free agents.

Team mates A-rod and Derek Jeter nearly became entangled in an impromptu brawl when in the midst of the World Series celebration Jeter accidentally sprayed A-rod with a bottle of Dom Perignone 1987 - "...which tastes like bath water compared to the 1986" ...chuckled the shaken millionaires. 

Major League Baseball is upset with the excessive number of mound huddles used by the Yankees during the World Series. Turns out they are just stopping periodically to count their money.
 

New York office workers reportedly tossed important files and documents out windows during the Yankees victory parade. It's a marked improvement from earlier this year when they were tossing out themselves.

Derek Jeter and Albert Pujols each won the Hank Aaron Award for the best offensive player. Milton Bradley won the award for the most offensive player.
 

The New York Mets will be participating in the Yankees Word Series parade.They will be removing trash from the streets,for their only sweep of the season. 

Philadelphia Phillie Jimmy Rollins still maintains that his team is better than the Yankees, moments following their Game Six loss to their World Series opponent last night.

The only other notable thing said by Rollins during the press conference was, "Yes, I do vote Republican. Why do you ask?" 

The New York Yankees won the World Series after a 8-year World Series drought, despite having the biggest payroll of any MLB team.

To improve on their already heavy hitting roster (hadn't the Yankee's won), owner George Steinbrenner (accurately portrayed in tv's Seinfeld as a greedy, insane person), was ready to buy the high-scoring 1954 National League All-Star Team.
