Did you know...

This was a fun little fact I thought of the other night....of the 4 teams that have made the playoffs from the National League...the PHILLIES are the last team to appear in the world series, and that was in 1993. Dodgers won in '88, Brewers won '82, Phillies in '80, and well.....we know the history of the Cubs by now...even though they appeared in a World Series final in 1984, losing to those Steve Garvey led San Diego Padres.

How wild is that.... the Brewers haven't made the playoffs in 26 years. Someone did a run-down about what life was like back in 1982....let's just say that the Commodore was a main computer brand, and cell phones? text messages? Google?

There's a new tv show where a guy wakes up and it's 1973, and they do the whole "wheres my computer, where's my cell phone" angle. Interesting concept, since so much has changed in just 35 years.
