SI got the Astros 2017 title correct. Back in 2014.



Yeah, but then before the regular season their writers switched to the Cubs/Dodgers.

Yeah, They said Dodgers/Indians. Which isn't a bad pick, but if you went with the Astros 3 years prior, why not stick with them. Especially since we knew they'd be good.

No one pays attention to SI anymore. Other than the swimsuit edition.

Oh yes we can. For the last 36 years I’ve taken that edition and thrown it in the shrubbery outside so that hubby has to hunt for it. I’ve gotten pretty creative over the years about hiding it.

The best part is when you find him goin' through the shrubs and you ask, "What are you doin' out there?"    He responds, "Nothin'."

SI has picked the Nats to make the WS three times. In those three seasons they won a total of one playoff game.

Normally, jinx would be used here...but it’s not a jinx when the Nats fail so much at winning a playoff series. Embarrassing is the appropriate word.

No chance at the World Series. Can’t blame SI, they don’t see the chokers on the field; they just look at the roster and assume champion on paper.

Getting back to SI.
It should be called  the lack of a swimsuit edition.

Harper kills the Yankees leading his Nats to a ring...then proceeds to sign a record breaking deal with them.

Honestly, I'd be okay with that. Give me one World Series win. I want a parade.
