Anyone would because the Braves competed in many WS and actually won one. If they hadn't won that one, would you still pick the Braves? yes because at least you get to see the cubs playing good baseball and in october year in and year out as opposed to watching crap year in and year out Exactly. I'd prefer a consistently competitive team than one that somehow manages to sneak a WS and then vanishes for 5-10 years. after reading my last statement, i need to remember to not be lazy about my punctuation.
