With the exception of the NL Wild Card, the postseaon teams and matchups have been set. The contests will be settled on the field. However, the games don't start till Wednesday and the national media (including the glorious wisdom of John 'Wang is the Cy Young' Kruk) is bound to fill the void by offering us no end of 'wisdom' and predictions. In my mind, the postseason is a complete crapshoot and anyone claiming to know what the secret ingredient to postseason success is, is full of it.

I call on you to share the mad rambling CW that you will doubt hear when you read the Plain Dealer, the New York Post(al) or watch ESPN and what have you. You'll probably hear that pitching wins championships. Or 'heart' might be the secret ingredient. Still other will convince us that the almighty 'postseason experience' will help players maintain steady bowel movements during games, thus helping them win playoff games. List any and all nuggets you come across.....
