    Sure, but not on the Nationals. Seriously, we have to take two in a row.

    It's crazy to say this but it is true, game 3 is the game, that's it.

    Game 3 puts pressure on them to win game 4 or return back to MMP.

    IF they win game 3, bullpen game for game 4 or Cole on short rest?

    Tip of the cap to the Nats. You beat Cole and JV in mmp you’re the real deal.

    You may be right. Certainly not much risk in your prediction. It may be a tad more difficult but it helps to have a sliver of hope in this world. I remember the yankees winning a WS being down 2-0 and I remember them losing a WS after being up 2-0. I think there are a couple of other examples too.

    I gotta believe that the Nats will get the real Astros at some point. Hopefully no later than game 3.

    It’s like when most everyone died in “End Game”

    Good thing is, that turned out well.

    I have faith

    Yeah, I wouldn't bet on Astros, lol.

    I'm being positive.

    Because.... Right now, it appears a 500-year Flood and crazy retirements-comebacks are Houston's key.

    Stros can win 4 of 5 though. Plenty talent exists


    ETA- Wow, no lie. A political anti-Turner commercial just aired on Fox 26 talking about Harvey mishandlings.

    If they win game 3 it's over honestly.

    There was so much more than the Bregs screw up.

    I meant if the Astros win game 3 bullpen game for game 4 but could make us go down 3 to 1 or Cole and hope he regains his magic and ties it up at 2. But then most likely Verlander on short rest as well unless you prefer Verlander on regular rest with potentially down 3-2.

    If this is what I have to endure after seeing them win it all 2017 then worth it. Sucks, but still worth it.

    If you quit on the team now you're a bullshit fan.

    Watching CJ and Lillard about to lose is cheering me up a little.
