	I was surprised how many sportscasters were predicting KC in 5,
or KC in 6. They all pointed out KC's experience in post season play. So
now, after the first two games are over I have to say that I am impressed
with the Blue Jays. They looked hard to beat in the first game, but the
looked like tough competitors in the second game. These guys don't look
like losers. I am looking forward to the world series being played in
the snow.

Actually, Kansas City has a lot of experience losing in post season
play.  After the first 2 games, it's obvious that the Jays are a
much better team.  The predictions of a 5 game series seem pretty
accurate, only KC on the losing end.  Note that KC manager Dick
Howser has never won in post season play as a manager.  I think
his record is 0-11 after the 2nd KC-Toronto game.
