Sitting Courtside: Jay-Z, A-Rod & CC Sabathia
Nov 7th
After a long day at the Yankee parade, Jay-Z, Alex Rodriguez and CC Sabathia took a few moments to cool out at the Knicks vs. Cavaliers game at Madison Square Garden last night.
Not sure if any Knicks or Cavaliers gave Jay High-5’s but I’m starting to formulate a conspiracy theory that Jay will live out every line of “Empire State of Mind.”

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS: Yankees Win 2009 World Series + Parade Info
Nov 5th
New York Yankees beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 7-3, in Game 6 of the 2009 World Series in a historical win in so many ways. This Yankee win makes this the 27th world championship for the Bronx Bombers, a record that surpasses all other North American sports franchises. Bam! Bam!
Though its been 9 years since the last Yankee World Series win it will go down as undoubtedly one of the best. Also, this win is reminiscent of the 1923 win by Babe Ruth and his teammates in the original Yankee Stadium.
The parade:
The honorary ticker-tape parade and ceremony will take place in this Friday (Nov. 6) at 11 a.m.The parade will start on ‘Broadway at Battery Place and continue northbound up the Canyon of Heroes to City Hall Plaza where Mayor Michael Bloomberg will present the Bronx Bombers with the Keys to the City.’
