The Braves 14-year winning streak has to be one of the most overrated of recent baseball feats. Despite having 13 postseason appearances in a row, they have won exactly one World Series.

Think about it, all the turnover the Braves have had, and they haven't had one off year for 14 years. And there were years they literally needed to win 100 games just to win the division and make the playoffs, not like San Diego that probably will get in with a losing record. The Braves were picked to do squat this year with so many rookies, and yet here they are celebrating another pennant.

And for 14 consecutive seasons, the Braves also failed to SELL OUT their post season games...in NY, this season we had about attend Yankees and Mets games..
