I am admittedly STILL basking in last year's World Series title, but this team should have been so much better. I never felt "it" this year, like I did last year. I just had that feeling last year...I think b/c they weren't dominant, but were solid...and lucky. And that luck rolled into confidence, which made them think they could win every game. I thought they could win every game.

I don't know how many titles the Yankees have won in your lifetime, but last year was my first, and it was just...amazing. The feeling really hasn't gone away yet.

This year, they were expected to be great. Adding Thome and keeping their starting pitching from 2005 should have made them great. Unfortunately, from year to year, bullpens are never consistent. I don't know what happened to their starting pitching.

The one real reason the Sox won't make the playoffs is Mark Buehrle. And I hate to say that b/c I love that guy. He's funny and doesn't take himself very seriously, and he has been a consistently good* (not great) pitcher his entire career. If he pitched this year like he has for the past 5 years, we'd be in the playoffs.

*even with his 12-13 record this year, he still has a career W/L of 97-66.
if it helps ESPN picks the Bulls as the no. 2 team in the East.
