Yeah, all I'm saying is the Braves and Dodgers failing to win a title isn't all that surprising. Franchises have combined for 32 playoff appearances and 1 title since the early 90s.
Baseball is the one sport I'd be ok with that as opposed to rare success, but when you get it, winning a title. Because baseball has the summer to itself so I'd rather be consistently good even if you don't get a title out of it, because when your baseball team sucks, there's nothing else to fall back on. When your NFL/NBA/NHL/college sucks, you can generally just rely on one of those also being good.
But the Braves/Dodgers bowing out earlier than expected can't be surprising at this point
