Miggy wins the TC and it's the 2nd story on the ESPN.com homepage. The Yankees winning the east is their lead story. pathetic.

SportsCenter just started. A brief mention of MC then right into the Yankees... And of course the one time I want to watch SC Stuart Scott is hosting. So much for that idea.

That was great to see the KC crowd give him a standing O and him do a curtain call. Good stuff.

I still think Miggy win just because it has been so long since we've had a TC winner and it is held in a higher regard now because of that.

Just read up on this. Seems that the NY media may have skewed the voting. Pretty big shame with the number comparisons
