And The Yankees Win Their 27th World Series Championship

I know that there are a lot of New York Yankees haters out there (many of whom are probably in and around Philadelphia, Pennsylvania right now), but you have to admit that this was a great World Series and that the Yankees did an amazing job during last night’s game six. Taking nothing away from the Phillies – who are a tremendously talented team – the Yankees played a great game of baseball and took home the World Series championship for the 27th time in franchise history.

Twenty-seven times! Again, while there are haters out there, no one can objectively deny that the Yankees organization has built up the most successful and storied team in the history of sports. I’ve heard arguments that Manchester United may come close to rivaling the Yankees organization, but I don’t know much about European soccer clubs so I can’t make the comparison.

I admit that I’m not the world’s biggest baseball fan and I am usually only a concerned fan of the Yankees during the months of October and November, but I was definitely happy to see such a great game last night. My only complaint is that these damn games start too late and thus end way too late. How do they expect working people to manage themselves at work the next day when these games and the celebrations are ending at 12:30am? That’s insane.

Congratulations to the Yankees on a terrific World Series championship!
