Agreed. That's why I don't start threads about the Cubs.

The regular season

The MLB regular is the most important of the major sports because only really good teams make the playoffs. Contrast that with hockey and basketball where the majority of teams make the playoffs. Also, the NFL is often a 9-7 record to make it. In baseball, you usually need a very good regular season record to make the playoffs.
