    It's over and I am the type to confess after the fact...

    NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!

    I never did. I predicted the first loss and 4 in a row, but NEVER did I doubt.

    After Phily in 80, the 86 Mets, years of losses to the Braves, the late 70s and early 90s Oilers, I confess...........I had serious doubts.

    I admit that I did not believe that we would make the playoffs when we were 15-30, but I knew we'd be fine with Oswalt on the mound tonight.

    I won't see no doubts, but game 5 honestly didn't leave me disheartened. Oswalt in game 6 gave me plenty of hope.

    I had doubts about Lidge's confidence in himself. With Roy on the mound though, I felt pretty good about game 5.

    I'll admit to wondering if the team could pull it off. But I did think that Roy Oswalt would give a cracking effort in game 6. I thought that if we got to game 7, then we were in serious ****, Roger Clemens aside.

    I had doubts but I loved it, being a pessimist is so great when they finally win and prove you wrong.

    Being Jeff Van Grumpy has its plus side.

    i had it rough that night and the next morning. i couldnt sleep, i kept waking up, and i had a test that day. but after that evening and the next day, all doubt eventually erased from my mind. my heart was sure racing when the first pitch went out though... go stro!

    I will admit I had my doubts. They could respond by folding or by resilent and becoming stronger. Crow never tasted so good!
