There is a thing about momentum going into the playoffs
Brewers will have that as much as anyone now, assuming the that team from NY loses

Not necessarily
DET slumped into the playoffs, went to the WS, where they lost to STL, who also slumped into the playoffs.
BOS slumped into the playoffs, went to the WS, where they beat COL, who was about as hot as you can be going into (and through) the playoffs.
Momentum going into the postseason is overrated.

Man, I wish we could go into the playoffs on the high the Brewers have right now. Instead, we go in rested but not playing especially well. And I also don’t understand how a pitcher can get rocked all year and still make the postseason roster. Howry hasn’t had a thing all year, just straight fastballs that get killed.

who cares...
… how they get in (if they get in). The bottom line is that the Cubs play who they play. If its the Dodgers, its a solid but not spectacular team. If its the Mets is a tremendous ace followed by a line-up that can be a sleeping giant. Anything can happen in a 5 or 7 game series. The Cubs need to play good ball and drive in runs when they have the opportunity.

I did comment
And I’m commenting now on the concept of a team “backing into the playoffs”. Everything resets once the playoffs start and it doesn’t matter how a team gets in. I’m not sure how its pertinent to anything how a team gets in. As I said in a five or seven game series anything can happen. So whether the Brewers get in “on an emotional high” and that carries forward or whether they backed in and are in a shambles, who knows. Anything can happen and the best team doesn’t always win.

Hey guys (not directed at everyone)...
Kindly step away from the ledge. For goodness sake, the playoffs haven’t even started yet, a game hasn’t even been won or lost in the first series, and some of you are wanting to jump. Guess what? Come Wednesday, none of this matters. CC could choke on a ham sandwich, while so many on the Dodgers’ pitching staff could come down with diphtheria you would think they all stepped off the Oregon Trail. Point is, no one knows what will happen, so lets have a nice few days off, and give our boys all the support they need on Wednesday.

I know
They’ve come back from I don’t how many times now. When things look their worst, this team makes the best of it. In all my life, I’ve never seen this team do that. We’ve all been given so many awesome moments this season, that it would be foolish to call it a season just because Howry gave it away in this one game. No reason to feel bad about anything right now. Not Soto, DeRo, Soriano, Dome, Z, Howry, etc.
To end this on an even more positive note, if anything at all disturbs me, it’s that I didn’t start posting here sooner, but I’ve had a blast for I don’t know how long with laughing at a lot of things you all say. You’re all some of the best fans I’ve met, and it was real cool to bump into Al a couple weeks ago. So if I feel bad about anything, it’s that.
