more loser talk worry about the giants when they're worth worrying about. for now, on with the cardinal killing. given how much better it is to win the division than a wild card, some of you guys are really treating these two possibilities (the giants catching us and us catching the cardinals) disproportionately IMO. it's not some obvious no brainer. if you're scared, tho, buy a dog (and root for the cardinals) because that's definitely the safer way to go i'm not scared But the chances of the Cubs catching the Cardinals are lower than the Giants catching the Cubs, so I first concentrate on destroying the Giants. If along the way that happens to help us destroy the Cards -- and don't forget the Pirates as well -- cool. But first things first.
