Now I've Heard It All
Comments:
Ugh. The title of the article made me cringe. I hate it when someone considers their still-playing-in-the-postseason team to be a failure. When two good teams meet one of them has to lose. That doesn't mean "..it all went wrong." It just sounds so ungrateful.
I'd prefer it if the article had taken a more positive light on how to go all the way next year or simply listed areas where there's room for improvement. I'd bet every team could find room for improvement, most years, maybe save one.
But I'd guess that's the Yankee fan's version of specialness, their Goat Curse or Bambino or whatever: their continuing complaining that they don't win every title, combined with the in-your-face smugness of constantly reminding everyone they do win 25% of them.
