Annals of Bandwagon Jumping

We're still not all the way on board, but one foot is fully on the flatbed, &, assuming it's actually going anywhere, we won't be letting the bandwagon get away w/o us. Pointless stats: The Dodgers (Flatbush & Chavez Ravine versions) have played the Cubs for the last 118 yrs. Until this afternoon, the two teams had never met in the post-season, and had played a total of 2,024 games, of which each team had won 1,012. Today, the Dodgers took the lead in the series, by a score of 7-2, coincidentally taking the first game of the 2008 National League Division Series. 20 of the 24 teams that have won the first game of the Division Series have gone on to win the series. Fingers crossed.
