Who would really give a damn about this? OK, it's a classic AL team with an illustrious history vs an NL team that sell tickets but has no identity. Forgive me for sounding curmudgeonly, but I MISS the dynasties. This business of parity has only diluted the game, and appeals to the short attention spans of modern sports watchers. As Brian Wilson once said, "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times".

Baseball does reflect modern sensibilities, so this is a reflection of our times. I can watch a game, and get mildly interested, but something is missing. Continuity, perhaps? I can't quite place my finger on it. More on this later.

PS -- so, the Indians folded. Hmmm...now that Boston's in, I'm considerably more interested in the Series.
