The Yankees had the Red Sox and the Orioles celebrate in the visitor clubhouse of Yankee Stadium this year. The Yankees had to foot the bill for cleaning each time.

The division series is the weird one. Getting into the playoffs, great. Winning the pennant, great. Obviously winning the whole thing, great. Celebrating like that for a 5 game series that just gets you to the next round is goofy. But baseball players have never really been introspective enough to process that.

The "E" train. Remind me to tell you the story about the old lady whacko who accompanied me to the Fenway stop one night, many years ago. Nothing like subway whackos.
