yes, jheem, the baseball season is about to start or end..
(that is if you define the season as the yankee's playing in the world series Vs someone else.)

for eons now, the Boston red sock think they can define the baseball season, but alas, like fall in Texas is nothing like fall in Vermont, its just a quaint idea that the boston red socks might some day win the world series.

this year proves to be more interesting than most, since there is a chance (albeit a small one) that they will sweep the final 4 games (the yankees won the first 3) and actually make it past the play offs, (something they have done before, althought not frequently) and make it to the world series were they will ineventiabley lose.

the games have been interesting, several running into many extar innings (14!) and closely played.

tonight, is the final match up in the bronx-- and hearts will be broken. we NY won't take it too bad if we lose, (it will be disappointing, but not a heartbreaking loss) but boston fans will be devastated.(again!)

if boston does defy the odds, and win, they have only postponed the heartbreak for a week or two.

its actually interesting to watch baseball this time of year. all the boring part is over.

its is a bit morbid, like watching a train wreck or waiting and watch for a volcano to explode... you know the ending is going to be tragic, (the red socks are involved) its only a matter of time (tonight? or next week) and degree.
