    Days of rest? That setup isnt going to fly. Too many off days means a longer season.

    At least you can remember your teams making the World Series. The Pirates last did (and won) in 1979. I was too young to care about sports or remember this happening. I do have vivid memories of 18 straight losing seasons, which I'm hoping ends this year.

    So stop your bitching!!! ;)

    At least your CITY has titles. I still cant get over my Chicago fans bitching about the fucking Cubs every year. You have the damn Bulls, Fire, Blackhawks, and Bears (ok, they all suck also).

    You can remember game 7 of the NLCS in 92 right? That was a good game!

    Man, I remember some great battles with the Pirates in the late 80s/early 90s when they had Bonilla, Bonds, Bream, Drabek, etc. The Mets and Pirates had a great, albeit short-lived, rivalry going.
