Top Sports Stories of 2009

It was quite a year for sports in the New York City area. The Yankees won their 27th World Championship, two brand new baseball stadiums opened (a total cost of nearly $2.5 billion), and Martin Brodeur set the record for most wins in NHL history. There were some ugly moments too — Serena Williams' explosion at the US Open, the Mets (again), the Nets, the Giants, and of course that Tiger Woods thing that you can't escape no matter where you live.

    When a team spends a billion dollars and wins the World Series, it's not a story. It's only a story if they spend a billion dollars and lose.

    I'm so glad that Brodeur has broken just about every goalie record. Suck on that Patrick Roy!
