Wait ... the phone's ringing. It's Adam Silver ... Some irregularity in the standings ... (Only after the 3rd Red Sox WS title this century did I actually relax into accepting the fact that they had won their first.) What did you do after the 4th? By then it was old hat. Now, the RS are back to what I remember as a kid.

Well, before free-agency and the draft, it was hard for teams to compete with the Yankees, who I believe, used to sign young guys with no intention of promoting them to the bigs, just to keep them out of the hands of other teams. I think 67 was the first WS appearance in my lifetime.

Thanks. It was hard to see, with it that small. If you want, I can add a reasonably sized fingers crossed emoticon to the editor.
Yeah! I think we're gonna need it for the playoffs :-) Here's a few. If you have another one you want, then link to it, and I'll upload it. Homer Simpson:
