The Angels lost to the Orioles in the 1980 LCS, and went up 2-0 on
Milwaukee in the 1982 LCS, only to lose three straight and miss the
Series.  I think the Angels are the oldest team in the major leagues
not to have made a Series appearance, tho I'm pretty sure there are
several teams that have not appeared in a Series since before the
Angels were formed.

I am not real optimistic about their chances this year, but they're
still my team, and I'll root for 'em til they put me into the
ground.
