Be All That You Can Be
"Be all that you can be." Were it only so. Oh, it has happened. The 1998 Yankees were all that they could be. The 2004 Red Sox were more than they could be. But there have been too many times when teams were not allowed to be all they could be because money was and is more important to those with the power.

But Are They Really the Best?
Pitching has always been the most important part of winning. Offense almost always decreases dramatically in the playoffs and World Series because the teams that get to the World Series get there on pitching and defense. Now, with two rounds of playoffs before the World Series, it has almost become a rarity for the team with best regular season to get to the World Series, much less win it.

Clumped Together to Confuse Us
Yes, Bernie Williams has hit the most "postseason" home runs, John Smoltz has won the most “postseason” games, and Tom Glavine has the most “postseason” losses, but Barry Bonds has hit .245 in nine “postseason” series, yet he has a .471 World Series batting average, which is the highest lifetime batting average in World Series history. Who is confused? How about most of the fans. No, make that those who blend all the records after the regular season ends together.

Yes it does, but it doesn’t sound as impressive as stating that the Atlanta Braves have been division champions the last fourteen times there have been division champions, but it still sounds impressive, until one examines what has happened a little more critically.
