The baseball gods teased us with thoughts of October through much of the season - right up to the end - then they slap us in the face with these Deadbirds victories.Such cruelty, baseball gods - why? What have we done to deserve such torture? You have cursed us time and time again, and we have suffered mightily for it. In 1981, we had the best record in baseball but were denied October glory. In 1994 we were denied October due to another strike. You sent us the wrath of Carl "Swift Boat" Linder for a miserable span of time. You kicked your fallen angel Pete from the Cornfield in Iowa and denied us another drink of baseball glory. You gave us The Trade.
Enough! Hand these Deadbirds their defeat during the next two days and give us our dignity back!
