Oh well, I'll keep trucking along not giving up.
You know, I won 3 World Series in five years. I took 10 years off and came back to GM and I haven't won a World Series yet, despite being able to get to the playoffs.

I like the idea that it's not as easy as buying all of the best players, going to the playoffs featuring the best teams and having maybe a team that isn't the "best" on paper, but meshes and gels well to win it all.

I mean, would the Marlins of '03 have really won the World Series if we were drawing it up on paper? No way.

I think the game is doing a much better job of the playoffs by and large than in past years.
