6. Since we had to go and shit in our hats
nice of you guys to take out some of the sting.

Now if Milwaukee can beat the Snakes, it won't be too bad at all. But then, I want the Cubs to win the Central, so... :shrug:

I swear, if I were the Dodgers, I'd trade Tomko and Hendrickson to Baghdad. :grr:

10. I was just about to give up on the game too...
Wagner giving up the lead in the top of the 9th, bottom of the line-up due and Hoffman on the mound...a whole "ye of little faith" type of thing

12. Yup
Edited on Tue Aug-21-07 10:18 PM by Oeditpus Rex
When I heard they were bringing in Wagner, I was like, "Okay, that game's over." But sometimes the bastards just have to make it interesting. :eyes:

Hoffman can be had, though. We proved that last August with four straight homers, two of 'em off him.

Edit: Snakes just tied Milwaukee 2-2 in the sixth. x(

3. I'll try and help out wherever I can.
I understand how it feels to be so close in games behind.

8. It's my pacing season
Every game is important now, so when we're trailing late by a run or two, I pace and curse, pace and curse, pace and curse...



And I freakin' love it. I live for this. :D

13. The pacing and cursing has been shared.
We haven't "dominated" our league like we did last year. And I have learned my lesson from that. We were like a solid 10-12 games out by this point. Guaranteed. And didn't make it to the World Series. My Christian MIL was here when they blew it and a very long "ffffffff......" left my lips incomplete.

I live for this time too, my friend. And I'm glad da Mets aren't running away with it. If only my husband had someone to talk to while I'm wearing my glove and cursing at the TV....

16. Yup
The closer it is, the better I like it. :bounce:

Okay... everybody in the NL West lost except Colorado. Chicago and Milwaukee both won, as did the Mets and Phillies.

I'm gonna be a wreck a month from now. :D
