I long for the 2004 team at this point. At least I felt really good going into September. Eh. I don't long for the 04 team. If you're not going to make the playoffs, don't string me along for six months only to blow it in the last week. Just get it out of the way and the sooner you're eliminated, the better. That's exactly how I feel. If you're going to blow it, do it earlier in the season instead of making it heartbreaking over the last week. That year still sucks because I felt that team was easily more talented than its 2003 counterpart and they couldn't beat the likes of the Mets and the Reds. This is just a joke now. Why people are talking about playoff races is beyond me when they can't win one [expletive] game at Petco Park. But hey, at least we scored more than a run this time around.
