The young ones will only expect it to continue, but the older and wiser know better. Now you're just like all the other won-a-series-every-30-years or so teams (Mets? Cardinals?). George is already working on next year, and you have a 30 year old who has to live up to this for the rest of his life. I'll take George. He has a history. And he is hurt deeply. But has learned to delegate.
