Agree 100%... figure in NFL terms, there are 32 team and only 1 is going to win the championship every year. As a fan, if you go into the season thinking that anything less than a championship is a failed season, you're just setting yourself up for headache and heartbreak.

A little bit ago, OSU lost to Florida in the title game, OSU lost to Florida in the basketball title game, Cavs lost to the Spurs in the NBA finals, Indians lost to the Red Sox in game 7 after having a 3-1 series lead with CC Sabathia and Carmona due up to pitch, Browns missed out on the Playoffs because the Titans beat the Jim Sorgi Colts (Titans deserved it more anyway though), and then the Buckeyes lost the national title game again... against LSU.

Now granted, I really, really would have liked all of my collective teams to win at least *one* title, but all those games and series and championships were fun to watch and it sure beats the tribe being out of it at the all-star break or the Browns going back to being the Browns.
damn lukie, i knew it was hard to be a sports fan in ohio, but i didnt realize how many opportunities there were.
