  1. Can you possibly be serious? This team is going to have a win total somewhere in the high 90s, possibly 100+, it has one of the best run differentials of the past decade, and is 30+ games over .500. Are you freaking kidding or what? Do you think great teams don't lose 4 games in a row sometimes?
  2. I think they think they're alive for the wild card
  3. Yeah, I hear ya...even with a loss, the Cubs are still 31 games over 500, firmly in first place with the best record in the NL...Definite panic time. How, exactly, does the situation you describe differ from 1969? There's a wild card now... which makes a huge difference Ooooo okay so we have a safety valve that will let us get swept by the Mets instead of the Dbacks. I see. lol whatever you say man.. feel free to keep flying off the handle. how have you ever survived a 162 game season? At least I'm won't be devastated when it actually happens. Prepare for the worst. Great way to watch baseball... live in constant fear of the 0.2% shot coming to fruition. Why even bother being a fan? If the worst does happen, we'll all be devastated. Don't kid yourself into thinking otherwise. Exactly
  4. Darryl Ward has no chance of hitting a game tying HR here

  6. We are talking about Geoff Blum here, right? The same guy who is batting .239 on the season with a .715 OPS? The key words were right now. Blum gets big hits, Lee, not so much. Lets get 3 and win this now. lol

  8. That makes two of us. I'm absolutely expecting a collapse now. Folks, this team is perfectly capable of going 4-20 and missing the playoffs altogether. It's not likely, though. Probably no more than a 20% chance. no, it's not. hahahahh 20% chance wtf?

  10. We'll score one next inning, have the tying run on 3rd with 1 out... and then two guys will strike out looking on pitches right down the middle... just to make it as frustrating as possible (ala the Baltimore game)
  11. How about on Bob Howry? Or on our manager for bringing him in... and for making countless other idiotic calls throughout the game? Seems a bit much to pin it on a guy who went 2 for 5 or something if you are gonna pin it on one guy.
  12. This is where I start throwing at everyone's head in MLB2kX
  13. You would've been worried if they lost this game which becomes a virtual coinflip in extra innings but not if they had won?
  14. Because of a complete garbage call this is a two run game instead of one
  15. WTF IS THAT FREAKING CALL??!!!
  16. These types of games make me physically ill
  17. lol another catcher fist pump
  18. You'd think they'd be sobered up by now.. last call was 4 innings ago
  19. Is our crowd more drunk or more stupid?
  20. Fine. Fair enough. You were still treating it as though it was a must bunt situation no matter what, though.
  21. So...I was just thinking... Can you guys think of a more nerve wracking game than the extra inning NLCS game in 2003... Game 3 was it? These extra inning games always make me nuts...
  22. Those are numbers. They don't mean anything. You want a runner at second, period. Wait, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. You don't seem like the type that would be in favor of bunting there Come on... seriously?
