Yet again, I was wrong.

Congrats to the Chicago White Sox for sweeping the Houston Astros and winning the World Series. In a previous post I labeled the Astros as odds on favorites to win and at the time they were. But the game of baseball isn't like other sports. The best teams usually end up winning, but who the best team is is usually not decided until the end. That may sound obvious, but it seems as if in other professional sports, the winners are decided before the season even starts. Baseball purists will tell you that "any given team can win on any given day." Maybe that's true. Or it could be that the White Sox simply played better. Which they did. And maybe federalcheese readers don't really care about the World Series, but I do. And it's my blog.
