10 % of the Time ???

[DDayJoe24]

Do you REALIZE that .....
over the past 100 years,
the Saint Louis Cardinals have won the World Series 10% of the time ?

Holy Crap !

That's not too shabby.
Only the Yankees with their 30% or (so) is better.

No other team in the National League is even close to that number.

I'm guessing the Florida Marlins might be better, having won twice in their short existance. Or at least close.

I'd do the math, but I'm too lazy to Google when the Marlins came into existence.

So yea, they're a little better than 10%.

Unfortunately for them, when they aren't winning the World Series, they aren't a very good team.

So let me ask this: Would you take 12 years of shitty baseball for 2 WS Championships?

Me? Nope. But I'm not in the faction. Never was.

Interesting question - would you rather your team be like the Atlanta Braves - set a record for consecutive playoff appearances, but only won one ring, or like Florida - a team that rarely makes the playoffs, and really sucks when they don't, but when they do, often wins a ring?
