Sports droughts


There are some teams in pro sports that win a championship every 2 or 3 years. Then we have those teams that win a championship every 10 or 20 years. Then there are those teams that win one and and don't win another one for a very long time. For example, the Boston Red Sox won the world series 2 out of 3 years, and then you have the Chicago Cubs who have not won a championship in 100 years. I mean they have had great teams in the past like when the Cubs had "Mr. Cub" Ernie Banks, or when they had "Slammin" Sammy Sosa, or even this year when the were the dominant team in the National League. Some teams just have the worst luck. Well technically you could say the Nfl's Arizona Cardinals have bad luck seein as they are in their first championship game since 1947. If they win, then their streak will end, but if they lose, and the Cubs win the World Series this year, and Arizona doesn't win a championship for 40 years, they will take over the longest championship drought ever. Well that is all i have to say. Until next time America.

  1. Tyler,

    Do you think the teams that regularly win championships do so more because of superior coaching or because of superior athletes? I go back and forth on this issue.

    Regarding your posts, I'd like to see you indent more frequently. Journalists write many small paragraphs per article, so you should incorporate that as a part of your writing style.
