Yes. It is very wrong. And don't count your chickens before they hatch.... we haven't made it to the NLCS yet.

Re: Postseason Scoreboard watching....

Nats were up 1-0, I fell asleep for 35 minutes, and now the Cards are up 5-1. It's like Groundhog Day surrounding this team. I want to know who in the Cardinals' organization made a deal with the devil.

Sleep is now a thing of the past for you. Your personal health will just have to take one for the team.

And now it's 6-1. Did you fall asleep again VP? lol

Re: Postseason Scoreboard watching....

Pete Kozma just picked the Nats' pocket going 1st-to-3rd on a bunt.

Now it's 7-1 on a bobbled play by Espinosa.

No chicken counting, just theoretically weighing the value of our unhatched chickens. I fully understand the sacrilege here, but my hate for the Cardinals is currently outweighed by the potentially endless drama of a Reds/Cards championship series. Get em Skip Schumaker!

Re: Postseason Scoreboard watching....

Why is Jordan Zimmerman still in this game? I've never seen a guy left in to get hammered like this in a postseason game.


edit: N/m it's Stammen that's getting rocked now. D'oh!

Bryce Harper is staring down the barrel of a Golden Sombrero and it's only the 5th inning.

I would concur. We're in a great spot but there was some book one time that said something like "Pride goeth before the fall." or something like that.
