Why can't I do this?
teams = { "SEA": "Seattle Mariners" }
for team, name in teams.items():
teams[team]["roster"] = ["player1", "player2"]
Because,
team will be "SEA",
so
teams[team] will be "Seattle Mariners"
and
"Seattle Mariners"["roster"] makes no sense.

I get an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./gamelogs.py", line 53, in <module>

TypeError: 'str' object does not support item assignment
You can see that I am trying to make a key called "roster" for each
team item in the dictionary, which is a list of players.
