The Irrelevant Playoff Race

Hello. Tonight our family is going to watch the Toronto Blue Jays play the New York Yankees.
I used to follow the Jays religiously until the '95 strike. Then I lost interest in baseball in general. The Jays unfortunately collapsed then after two World Series titles, and have not been to the playoffs since.
I hear they're still in the playoff race, and the Yankees aren't. Amazing, but irrelevant.
Why? Because tonight will be the first Major League Baseball game my children have ever seen live. They both play softball, so they understand the rules. I think they're genuinely interested.
The opportunity to have them see baseball at its highest level may have a huge impact on them. And it's irrelevant where the teams are from, or how they're doing. In one game anything can happen.
I hope the kids enjoy it. That's what's relevant.

Regards,
Irrelevant
