OK dad, I've been wihtout a lawnwower most of the summer. I want to take one last swipe at the acre with the push mower and then use the lawn sweep to clean it up. If I take the bag off the push mower what kind of trouble do you think I'll find if I try to chop up the very long 1'+ bent over grass and the leaves on top of it?

I've used a push mower on long grass like this before. It's easier if you have an attachment to blow the cut grass out the side, otherwise (depending on moisture, especially under leaves) you'll likely get things clumping up pretty bad.
