Kiss of death from Kruk
« on: September 29, 2006, 03:58:57 pm »
Did anyone else watch BBTN last night?  Kruk listed the Astros as the strongest team in the NL.  He did not flat out say he picked them to make the playoffs, however, I fear positive recognition from the national media regarding the Astros especially from ESPN.  We are the underdogs dammit, we still have no shot at making the playoffs.
Oh God, I wish I was a loofah!

The Stros are down one whole game in the loss column.  And everyone knows... YOU CAN'T MAKE UP GAMES IN THE LOSS COLUMN.  Our boys are DOOMED.
60% of the time... it works everytime.

He also said last night on BB Tonight that  'even their closer Wheeler pitched seven innings on Wednesday.'
How can you ask me a question like that?  Do you ask The Beatles that??

Eight reasons why everyone should root against the Cards.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

The part about the LaRussa dichotomy was spot on. And the whole Clemens-Piazza post-season reunion never even occurred to me.

My favorite line: "and when a sleepy ship's captain runs his tanker aground we will say he was feeling 'La Russa-ish.'"
"Holy shit, Mozart. Get me off this fucking thing."

"foxhole commander", so close.  But he does reference the Naropa Institute, good times there.
