Wow, I love reading more gems over at WSI From "Cub Killer" The fact is that only death and taxes are inevitable in life. A flub title is not, the drought may go on forever. Accept that, flubbers. The cubs have the #1 NL seed, but that actually DECREASES their odds to win it all. Lower seeds actually have a better chance. Which further shows that reg season record doesn't mean much. The last NL1 to win it all was the D-backs in 2001. And they're the only NL1 to win it all since seeding became earned. 03 NL4 06 NL3 08 NL2 10 NL2 11 NL4 12 NL3 14 NL5 WC teams have won it all more times. Those 103 wins mean nothing now. HFA isn't really an advantage. 109 is looming, flubbers...
