I thought about my actions before I clicked "POST"
and decided that there are no such things as curses, jinxes, or anything greater than a 0% chance that the Brewers or Cubs players are reading my BCB posts, on their edge of their seats, waiting to see what I say next.

Really?
The Matrix recycles a lot of pretty common sci-fi tropes (not that that’s a bad thing!) Dark City did a much more thoughtful presentation of the basic idea. Great, great movie.

Maybe it’s my copy of the Star Trek: Next Generation Technical Manual. Or the fact that I own all five seasons of Babylon 5 on DVD. Probably something along those lines.

Dark City was awsome...and it had Jennifer Connelly in it too...
But The Matrix was groundbreaking in its own way.

It started out with a bloop single that Edwards misplayed into a man at second.
Kerry walked the next batter. Then, on a bunt attempt, DLee threw out the man at third. Unfortunately, Kerry walked the next guy to load the bases. The critical play occurred when the next man hit a grounder up the middle that Cedeno could have turned two and gotten us out of the game but he booted it. Two runs scored and the next man up singled (only solid hit of the inning) and the game was over.

I wouldnt be so sure, everyone thinks we can just coast in and no one can do that
except the angels, this team needs to start winning more consistently, and the so called leaders like lee and wood have to step up when it counts, not choke

yeah, we're at 99.5% to make the playoffs. There's no way we aren't getting in.

The mets had a 7 game lead with 17 to play last year and still managed to choke
theres nothing to say that we dont have the same potential to do that as well

But if we choke the division, we still will win the wildcard. The mets didn't have that cushion.

Well we have about a 7.5 game lead in the wildcard, so its pretty much the same thing
in terms of the size of the lead

I’m out of here for the rest of the year. NOT liking what I’ve seen out of this team for ten days now.
