		Ignoring this result, after the 1944 fall series (Browns vs. Cardinals), a World Championship was prematurely awarded to the Cardinals, in defiance of the large lead which the Browns had accumulated, and prior to determination of the final count.
		In addition to our belief that a World Championship award must be based on cumulative totals, there were irregularities in the 1944 fall series which should be redressed, so that in fairness, the Browns are recognized as the winners of the 1944 series also.
		I believe that if the intent of all players is correctly assessed, the Browns won both the 1944 fall series, as well as the overall contest.
