Hell, if the same stuff happens tomorrow and we win Thursday, we can get to 4 GB with a sweep! Wouldn't that be hilarious. What wouldn't be hilarious is to do all of this and play like crazy the last month of the season and end up falling 2-3 games short, leaving us all winter to lament about how it took 5 months for the 2009 Cubs to get their #$*% together. So for me, it's either stay 5 or more games out of a playoff spot, or do the unthinkable. What would suck about missing by a game or two would be that there would be more fuel for even more curse talk.
