Quote:Well, ABF, I dunno; I mean despite this horrible streak we're on now (3L), we still have an almost certain hand on the wild card. That's all that REALLY matters. The chances of us nabbing the Eastern pennant are fading away ever-so-slowly. They're magnificent losing streak (22-0 to the Indians!!) is over, and our magnificent winning streak (22 wins out of 25) is dead as well. We can only hope for the wild card.
I know we get into the playoffs with the Wild Card the same as if we had won, but that doesn't mean that I have to like it! :) Really, it feels cheap to get in in second place... but that's just what I think.
The Yankees are indeed the most popular team in sports. They are also the most hated, though, you know. They have so much money that they can afford to pay such a ridiculously high salary... tens of millions of dollars higher than number two... it just isn't fair! So they always win and we always lose... it stinks.
