Here’s a thing that might not feel possible now, but it’s true: The Carolina Panthers are going to win the Super Bowl. Not this year, but someday.
The Charlotte Hornets? They’re going to take the NBA crown one day, too.
I don’t know either of those things for a fact, of course. But here’s what I do know: The Atlanta Braves, the team I’ve rooted for since I was a boy, the team most of the South roots for, won the World Series last week.
The Braves have won just one other title in my lifetime — back in 1995.
