Yep that and the Braves uncanny ability to refuse to lose. It's gonna be a long season for the Nats if the Braves keep rolling like this

They just want it more.

Anyway, need to get a wing against Cliff Lee.

Might as well sell at the deadline and get what we can.

These last several posts are all sarcastic right?  If not I am really concerned about some of you.

I think tonight would be a great night for Kershaw to pitch another NO-NO. Anyone else agree?

My braves fan co-worker thinks they will be no hit tonight.  I hope so.

Has Kershaw ever been able to go 9 innings twice in a row? His last outing was a complete game against the Giants. Not sure he could go 9 again tonight. I'd love to see it happen though.

Baseball is a funny sport--hard to sweep.  Would not be surprised to see the Barves win tonight.

I really hope you are wrong. This thread will implode if the super-human Braves manage to beat the Dodgers ace at his home field.Might as well call season on the Nats right then and there.

Season? Thats a franchise ender for the Nats. May as well move the team back to Montreal.

Most of them called the season long ago; they only remain here to dash the hopes of us who continue to support the team in its impossible dream for 2014.

-1.5 games is a hell of a deficit to come back from especially when you're trailing a team that refuses to lose.

I thought we were -1.5 games ahead of being behind.  Or is it behind being not ahead.  I am confused.

If I had a dollar for every time the panic monkeys considered the Nats dead....

IIRC, one genius called the whole season a loss about 45 minutes into the opener.

Maybe a weekend series would be nice.  Like this weekend, when I'm in Montreal.    :P

Yes, especially since Domino's is doing one more DomiNoNo promotion.
