"This team has played hard all year, they've treated the people of Chicago to a damn good season of baseball and, believe me, they all want to win as much as I do, but the problem is there's only one team that can win. For people to say that this team is built for the World Series and if it doesn't win the World Series, it's not a successful year, I just don't buy that." - Chicago Cubs Manager Lou Piniella (MLB.com, Carrie Muskat, 09/29/2008) |
