You guys have nothing to worry about.

It doesn't seem like it, but you're moving forward. Albeit slowly.

This shite is tough to take, and I know, I've been there. You have a real good team. The pieces are there. Your remind me of the 2001-2006 Cardinals. It took awhile for us. But we got it.

I always hate facing the Braves, because I know that eventually, y'all will run the damn table.

to a great season, and we'll probably see you next October.

This crap tonight was flat out fricking retarded. And I don't even like to use the term retarded.

There is no fricking reason not to have Kimbrel in to face those 2 guys. None. What in the frick.

Look, it doesn't matter.

We could trade Freddy Garcia and Elliot Johnson for Mike Trout. We could the trade Dan Uggla and David Carpenter for Evan Longoria. We could then trade Pastornicky and Ayala for Hanley.

The end result is that we would pitch some subpar reliever against the whoever we faced and go home. We're managed by a clown. Every team is managed by some clown, but we are managed by the league's absolute biggest clown. And yet, we'll extend him cuz' DIVISION TITLEZ!!!! Instead of meeting him in the tunnel and saying "Hey clown, good luck out there, this is it."

Question for everyone:

What do you think Bobby would've done in the 8th?

Season on the line, Fredi Gonzalez puts it into the hands of David Carpenter. Just like we all imagined it FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!

I honestly think this was the series that put me over the edge. Honestly may not get MLB.tv next year nor follow it as closely.

Why should I? We're crippled by the worst TV contract in all of baseball that's locked in for over a decade more and managed by a guy worse than my high school manager. And he's not going anywhere. Life's too short man.

Too short.

Special core wasted on a special kind of idiot. Tough to swallow.
