So, rake we must, even if it's so certain people can dive into great big piles of them, bury their fathers in, etc. It's just a fall ritual. Speaking of fall rituals, the baseball playoffs have finally begun. The baseball season may be over this week, given the way the New York Yankees finished the year. The season is over when the Yankees play their last game.
Some teams play baseball.
The Yankees are baseball. The fact that I'm a Yankees fan has no bearing on this comment. If it weren't for the Boston Red Sox curse and Toronto being Canadian, the Yankees wouldn't even be in the fall classic. My theory is the real Yankees took a couple of weeks off since they had a big lead. Last night, the real Jeter, Williams and Clemens should have returned fresh and rested from their vacation and play like two-time world champions.
