Sure hope...
« Topic Start: October 10, 2012, 04:36:10 PM »
I sure hope the team comes to play tomorrow and Friday, but, if by chance they don't... I really don't want to see any "sucks we lost but it still was a great season!" type posts.

Save that crap for November/December. IF we lose there better be nothing but gloom and bad attitude. Otherwise you deserve to be called an ASSCLOWN.

Just my .02 cents.

Cause when you lose you need time to mourn... Don't need all that happy go lucky crap.

Mourning isn't doom and gloom though.

Honestly not sure if serious.

Well, carry on.  Minor correction though - if they don't show up tomorrow, there won't be a Friday.

Fine. Call it what you want... Just don't want to see someone say we should be happy with the season... Right after the team is bounced from the playoffs.

Which I :pray: won't happen.

I am not going to be a pessimistic SOB to please any other pessimistic SOB. Sadness police!!!

But I am not waving the white flag. Ever. Just not going to wallow in my own misery if things don't go as hoped.

Anyone thinking of blowing their brains out over this loss should go ahead and do the world a favor and pull the trigger.  It's freaking baseball people, if they lose tomorrow nobody's going to be dragged out in the street and executed.

On the phone with a ticket partner while the game ended.  Was discussing our group's tickets to NLCS game 1 and the start time when the out was made.  After an "oh, well," I offered him my extra seat to game 5 of the NLDS.  Natitude still!

:clap: This is entertainment, people.  It requires an incredible lack of perspective to let this ruin your life.

Yeah, it wasn't a great regular season, it was a spectacular regular season - and today totally sucked

The two are not mutually exclusive

People get to post whatever they want, don't let it get to you

I never said end, I said ruin, as in if it pisses you off so much that you can't even let anyone compliment the team (who had the best record in MLB), you've lost all perspective and become a miserable hack.

i'll respectfully disagree.  No matter what happens tomorrow this has been a great season, one which we all thoroughly enjoyed and one which for most of us, exceeded our wild expectations.

I predicted 94 wins and a loss in the NLCS.  We lose tomorrow I'm counting this season as a disappointment.

BTW - there's nothing wrong with celebrating the best regular season record. Particularly after 162 games. That's completely awesome and definitely worth celebrating.

The season will not be seen as a success if they lose tomorrow. No way. 98 wins and division champions and you get bounced in the first round on your home field by the second wild card team?

It will be a massive disappointment. You don't get these opportunities all the time. What are the odds that everything breaks perfectly right and we win close to 100 games again next year? It's just not that easy.

No one remembers the team who loses in the first round of the playoffs. Totally forgettable.

Gotta find a way to win these two freaking games.
