    This is it. We have our top three pitchers, coming off a three-game winning streak going up against a team who was just swept by Florida. If we can't win this series, then season's over.

    I can't wait until we make the playoffs. I will then call you QaQuitter for the rest of your days here.

    WWW - Although I wouldn't be surprised to see them lose once. Guys wer'e only 3 games back of CIN,PHI and SD for the WC lead. 2 back of FLA and SF and 1 back of ARI. We could have the lead by the end of the week. Let's go Astros!!

    Cincinnati 67 65
    San Diego 66 65
    Philadelphia 65 65
    San Francisco 65 66
    Florida 64 66
    Arizona 64 67
    Houston 63 68

    Does anybody really see the Reds or any of those other teams making the playoffs? I don't.

    If they make the playoffs, that would make me happy. However, if you think I really believe it is LLL then you must be smoking something.

    I am just following superstition and tradition, and thus HAVE to keep saying negative things.

    If it ain't broke......

    If that's what you've been doing, then you do need to change it. Even though we're making a mini-run, we're still under .500. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for your superstitions and traditions. :)

    A GM in the company I work for is a huge Mets fan. He just said today that the team he would hate the Mets to face in the playoffs would be the Astros. He said he thinks they are the only team in the NL with the pitching to beat the Mets in the playoffs.

    I agree completely. It's why it's so disappointing to me that the Astros don't already have the wild card locked up. They're better than that.

    Of course, you've now ruined it by mentioning the tradition. You should have just played along..but NOOOOOOOOO. You had to go and talk about it. Now they're screwed and it's all your fault.



    WWW because we've actually see all 3 pitchers for the Brewers

    I wouldn't be so fast to discount Florida. They are a pretty hot team right now. However, I too believe that this should be a sweep. WWW.
