Baseball and a little culture sometimes. Baseball is simply the most intelligent, most intricate and dramatic sport there is. Part of America's identity is rooted in baseball. It is the greatest game. As for culture, we all need it, whatever it is.

Yankee Greatness This Week!
While the stock market was falling, financial titans were failing, politicians were fighting, and natural disasters continued to wreak havoc, it's nice to see that baseball has remained. And there's no better ambassador for our national pastime than the great Derek Jeter. Jeter quietly became the all-time hits leader in Yankee Stadium history this week which was quite fitting for the final season in Yankee Stadium. Jeter's 1,270 hits moved him past "the Iron Horse" Lou Gehrig, another Yankees all-time great, to take the record.
