Also, we can't assume that a certain number of wins will be enough to get in. We have no idea how our competition will perform for the remainder of the season. Maybe they have some long losing streaks in them too.
All I'm saying is that as down as we all are on the team, and I admit I'm very close to giving up, it's too early to wave the white flag. We were something like 9 games under .500 at one point in 2007, and we were able to salvage the season. The Brewers looked unstoppable then as well. Other teams were playing better ball than us. We dealt with injuries, dugout fights, Lou looking clueless and indifferent. Let's just see how things play out. We have 119 games left.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
You've made my day. That was perfect. You're right. Let's just hope Lou hasn't lost those braincells he had then. LET'S GO GET EM BOYS.

I hate my pretentious sounding username too.
