Yes indeed. Another example of just how stupid it is to support professional teams that have been perennial losers for 20-50-100 yrs(redsox, cubs, lions....oh, did mention the(0-7 and 0 for almost 50 year)LIONS who sold 55,000+ season tickets this year...LOL).

Let's see.... Florida Marlins, Baltimore Ravens, Colorado Avalanche, St. Louis Rams, Arizona D'backs....and just in the last few years!

As for the old timers.....just build-em a new stadium and offer a bobble-head doll and the chumps will continue to fill it up.

Congrat's to the D'Backs.......one of the best series in years!

What exactly are you trying to say here? The Marlins bought the ring. Which is fine. They hired experienced, good players for a year and it worked. They now suck. Baltimore used to be Cleveland so they aren't really new. The 'Lanche used to be the Nordiques, the Rams have been around forever, just new city. D'Backs are four years old. They have shown what teams have known for years: starting pitching wins. Look at the Yanks, Braves. The Arizona bullpen ain't that great. Especially their short relief. They have good hitting, but there a plenty of teams with just as good or better. My hats are off to them. So glad they beat the Spankees. That was the best series I can remember. But next year, GO METS!
