Ugh. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/10/sport ... ref=sports Sandomir is nice and sarcastic in his article: "The Yankees should think big. Start the celebration with the inaugural Tournament of Jeters Parade. "

There's a reason most bowl games are played in warmer climates.

Jeter will appear and his warmth will raise the temperature to a balmy 60 degrees.

With, of course, a soft rain.

Screw amateur sports (Oh, and call it the New Era Bowl please. :-D ) This just paves the way for a possible Winter Classic at Citi.

More likely the Tri-State Lincoln Mercury Amazin' Bowl.

Or the Iron Triangle Eminent Bowl-main?

Bullets of Cool flying all over the place here! Bowl games suck. Say you win. Unless it's the national championship game, you run off the field yelling "Yippie! We won the (fill in the blank) Bowl!!!" and that gets you....what, exactly? The ability to sell some (Fill in the blank) Bowl Champs t-shirts? This is like if the Marlins and the Mariners played a game a week before the World Series. A couple teams that went nowhere playing a meaningless game. Heck, with a football game in that band box at least you'd have the question of whether every punt or extra point would sail out of the stadium.

Also, this benefits absolutely NOBODY but the MFYs. Lord knows, the city isn't hurting for people to buy Broadway tickets and eat hotel rooms during the f*cking holiday season.
