Can we please stop with the flimsy excuse from some media and players that the poor, tired Texas Rangers have played too many games in the last few years during their playoff runs?

I never heard the Yankees of the late 1990s-2001 complain of fatigue during their playoff runs, or the Chicago Bulls or the New England Patriots complain they were playing too many games during their dynasties.

Do you know how many teams in Major League Baseball would have loved to have played as many as the Rangers the last few years? I'm gonna guess all of them.

Just admit the Rangers choked. Claiming fatigue is a weak excuse.
