Maple leaf

Yep, that's what the article is about

It would be nice to see the tree...then there'd be less confusion :-) ... Here's an article demonstrating how this leaf is often confused with a more infamous leaf. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-le... (although the side by side comparison image no longer exists)

Japanese maple leaf....

then what is it?;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Not a Maple leaf :)
