Indeed. Ozzy's analysis is very, very flawed. The question is which teams end up getting to the postseason and how many teams are perpetually left out. Now the NFL does have its Arizona Cardinals, but Cincy now looks like a power and every team's gotta shot.
In MLB, Kansas City has NO shot. None, nada, forget about it. The same can be said for Pittsburgh and Milwaukee, etc. If you are a fan of one of those teams, the game isn't fun. Your team simply has no hope of doing anything,

Last time Milwaukee was in a World Series: 1982 (they lost)
Last time Pittsburgh was in a World Series: 1979 (they won)
Last time Arizona was in a Superbowl: .... never been
Last time Detroit was in a Superbowl: .... never been
I think there is more drama in baseball. I think dynasties are good because it adds more character to the game. A sport where "everyone wins" is as meaningful as some hippie game of soccer for 5 year olds.
Not that I'm saying my analysis is wonderful. It just looks at one thing, but I think championships are pretty important. Tell a Bills fan that just getting in the playoffs is good enough.
