    I looked up the playoff schedule. I'm officially pumped. I can't wait for October 1st, sitting in K lot, getting shit faced, and then proceeding with losing my voice at game 1. It's feeling like that time of the year.....finally.

    Anyone concerned just a tad about the Bastard ?

    Cholly said he thinks hes lost some confidence in his stuff

    Eh. He's got more than enough time to recoup as I see it.

    I hope so we need that bastard for the playoffs

    Well, I wouldn't go that far.

    And fuck it, there isn't anyone in this league that scares me. Not saying we could have our asses handed to us at any time in the playoffs, but with that said, we're in a better position than anyone else.

    Yeah that's taking it a little too far. I think the guy is much better when he really focuses.


    I can't remember, in my lifetime of baseball watching, too many teams that would be this much of a favorite heading into the playoffs.

    I know the '90 A's were one of them. And they got swept in the WS.
    '98 Yanks were losing the ALCS briefly and then killed everyone.
    '01 Mariners were kind of falling apart in the playoffs - that was weird.

    I don't know, anyone else?

    Yes, I'm worried. This bullpen is the Achilles heel I think. Hopefully we don't have to use it a whole lot.

    I remember when we were talking about that '01 M's team in here. Did you ever look back at that roster? How the Hell did they win that many games????

    That's how the Braves used to always lose. And they couldn't score any runs.

    HEY! I'm not listening to this negative Nancy nonsense. Let's leave all of that for when/if we lose. Then we can act like our usual asshole selves.

    I can just feel it coming. The whole season is a feel-good fest. Then we eat a big giant turd in the end.

    Wouldn't that mean he would have to have a drinking problem and we would have to let him go, where then he would proceed with being a beast with another team?

    what is the point of getting shit-faced so you barely remember the game afterwards? seriously i understand having beers and tailgating but not to the point of being shit-faced. to me that's just stupid eagle-fan type behavior that makes no sense.

    i think bastardo will be fine. i expect him to be like madson was in 2008. i think when the adrenaline gets pumping again come playoff time he will be fine. the 7th and any extra innings is where the bullpen could scare me. if for someone reason we have to use someone in the 7th we got lidge and stutes and that's pretty much it.

    cholly just needs to balance getting the team ready for the playoffs with enough rest. i think it's more difficult with the offense. have to get rollins and utley playing time to get their strokes down before the playoffs while also balancing their health. i imagine he will play the regular lineup a bunch this weekend against the cardinals.

    red sawx choking is awesome.

    just realized last night the the Eagles and Phils both play sunday night. lots of switching between the two which is good.

    You don't need to know the point of why I do anything. And who said I don't remember anything? Please let me know when you add something for once that makes me laugh(even a little bit) or doesn't feel like I've wasted my time that could have been better spent plucking my eyeballs out.

    I'm sorry, I'll let you back up on your soap box....

    haha well i for one am glad you are so proud of getting 'shit-faced'. will you brag about getting laid next? i mean it must be fun to act like an 18 year old but i guess most of us grow out of such behavior when we reach adulthood (i assume you are an adult...).

    and you don't LET me do anything. PJ provides this forum for opinions which hey gives me just as much right as it does you and that other clown to spew on here. but thanks for offering it back to me ;)
