We adored dynasties. As soon as some team won a championship, we'd all go: is this the next dynasty? We even had dynasties in college sports, too, like UCLA in basketball and Notre Dame in football, back when the Irish players went to Mass instead of talking on the telephone in all their spare time.
But now, I have to tell you, they're all gone. Sorry, sports fans, no more dynasties. Through the years, the Celtics have just sort of petered out. The Cowboys became, to sports, like the Kardashians are to entertainment, just being around is enough. And now, the Lakers have simply, suddenly cratered, slogging along no below 500.
