Yankee Parade Live,Yankee Parade Tv Coverage: New York City will host a parade as a tribute to the 2009 World Series Champion New York Yankees— their record-setting ninth trip down the so-called Canyon of Heroes.

The Fall Classic ended Wednesday night with the Bronx Bombers winning their 27th championship by beating the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3.

Hideki Matsui was awarded MVP honors for his extraordinary performance, which included a two-run homer off Pedro Martinez that set an early tone for Joe Girardi’s side. It was the first time that title has gone to a Japanese-born player or a full-time designated hitter.

It will be a sunny but very chilly out in NYC. Beginning at 8 a.m., streets in the vicinity of the parade formation area will be closed to prepare for the celebration.

Fortunately plenty of extra trains and ferries are scheduled. Metro-North will run three additional Hudson and Harlem Line trains to/from Grand Central for fans who want to attend the parade.

Alex Rodriguez, Matsui and the rest of the team will be swimming in a sea of confetti and congratulatory cheers at Battery Place at around 11 a.m., before going north to Chambers Street and ending at City Hall Plaza for a few victory remarks. Mayor Michael Bloomberg will present the Yankees with the keys to the city.

Though there is limited space for the ceremony and tickets are required, a huge screen will be placed near the City Hall for the public to watch.

The city’s last ticker-tape parade honored the Giants when they captured Super Bowl XLII. The said spectacle cost around $331,000, all but $24,000 of which was covered by NYC & Co., the city’s marketing arm.

For those who are not lucky enough to attend the festivities, there are still options. A lot of TV and radio stations will broadcast the event live and it will also be streamed online on numerous websites. You can watch the Yankees Parade 2009 live online (live stream video) here.

Michael Dyer,Michael Dyer Announcement:Little Rock Christian (Little Rock, Ark.) senior Michael Dyer, the state’s all-time leading rusher, announced his committment to Auburn during a school assembly this morning.
Dyer, No. 15 overall in the MaxPreps 2010 Top 100 compiled by Tom Lemming, is the third ranked running back in the country, behind Marcus Lattimore (Byrnes, Duncan, S.C.) and Lache Seastrunk (Temple, Texas).

He selected the Tigers over Arkansas, Tennessee, and a host of other schools that offered a scholarship.

Two weeks ago against Lake Side (Hot Springs, Ark.), the 5-foot-9, 215-pound Dyer broke the Arkansas career state rushing record of  7,122 previously held by former Elaine star Vernon Hicks.

His best asset probably is his balance,” Little Rock Christian coach Justin Roper said after the game. “What makes him so great is that there are guys who are fast and guys who are big and strong, and some are good receivers but Michael can do it all. He’s so hard to tackle because he’s so strong and you can’t knock him off balance.

Dyer will look to add to his record today in a highly-anticipated showdown against Pulaski Academy, one of this week’s Top 10 Games of the Week.

Rachel Christie Miss England,David Mcintosh:Beauty pageant winner Miss England gave up her title on Friday after reports she had been involved in a nightclub brawl with another beauty queen.

Rachel Christie, niece of former British Olympic gold medal sprinter Linford Christie, was arrested earlier this week after allegedly getting into a fight with Miss Manchester, Sara Jones, at a club in the northern English city, newspapers reported.

Christie, who had become the first black winner of the title in July, was accused of punching Jones in a row over her boyfriend who appears on the TV show “Gladiators,” the papers said.

“Due to the media attention following the allegations against her, Rachel Christie has now decided to withdraw from the Miss World competition and relinquish her Miss England crown,” the pageant organisers said in a statement on the Miss England website.

Rachel will concentrate on clearing her name and focus on training for the 2012 Olympics until this case is resolved.

Christie says she wants to emulate her uncle and win gold at the 2012 Olympics in London in the heptathlon.
