(Ralph & Ed are at the Canyon of Heroes watching the NY Yankee parade.)

Ralph: "Well, Norton. I managed to get the day off and watch this parade. It was a grat idea."

Ed: "Hey, if I was working today, I would be IN the street hearing the parade and wading through the water."

(Ralph rolls his eyes.)

Ralph: "There's Derek Jeter. He's still loved by the ladies even though he's now 35. Boy, what a difference 15 years makes. I read in a 1994 Yankee program at the old Yankee Stadium that proclaimed that Derek Jeter was part of the future. Man, where they right."

Ed: "There is Joe Giradi."

Ralph: "Can you believe that Red Sox fan that we ran into. He called him Joe GAYridi."

Ed: "There are the Steninbrenners. Sadly without big George."

Ralph: "Well, the big guy is in failing health and he is almost 80. I bet he's proud of this team."

Ed: "I wonder what it would be like if Torre was still the manager."

Ralph: "Hard to say. They would still make the playoffs though. After 2007, I thought he should have been fired."

Ed: "There is C.C. Sabathia. I think judging by the look of him, he's got a big appetite just like you Ralph."

Ralph: "Oooooh, you are a riot Norton. A REAL RIOT!"

(After the parade, Ralph & Ed are hearing the speeches.)

Ralph: "Boy, what great speeches. I agree with what Joe Giradi said. 'After speaking with Yogi Berra who won five straight championship rings, let's win it again in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 & 2014 and on.'"

Ed: "This Yankee organization. Such history."

Ralph: "I couldn't agree more Norton. The Yankees have got a very proud history. We should be proud to be Yankee fans."

(Ralph & Ed sing "Here Comes The Yankees.")

(Jackie Gleason walks on stage. Audience applauds.)

Jackie: "Thank you. We are sorry we couldn't get any of the Yankees to come here tonight which is a shame because they would have the honor of performing in front of the greatest audiences in the world. The Miami Beach audiences. GOOD NIGHT!"

(Audience applauds.)
