Does the “Best” Team Win the World Series?
It’s been a few days. And although I ain’t over it yet, I think I can write about the Detroit Tigers losing the World Series.
When the playoff in baseball began, 10 teams – and their fans – were very happy. But the playoffs being what they are, we knew that only one team – and its fans – would actually be happy when the whole thing was over.
After the best-of-five series, the Tigers – and this fan – were quite happy. When the Tigers swept the Yankees, I was very happy. And then when the Giants swept the Tigers… okay, I wasn’t happy anymore.
So what did the Tigers and all the other “losers” (and yes, that includes the Yankees) learn from the playoffs?
