Gracchus (about Obama): I think he knows what America is. America is the mob. Conjure money for them and they'll be distracted. Take away their freedom and still they'll roar. The beating heart of America is not the paper of the Constitution, it's the power of the media. He'll bring them debt - and they will love him for it.

They're the kind of team that could luck their way into the ALCS or something with their defense
But I just don’t think the offense is resilient enough to go all the way. I don’t know where you can find the team’s numbers when playing from behind (BR doesn’t seem to have them) but I’d be willing to be we’re among the worst teams in baseball at playing from behind.
As we’ve seen this past week, if we can’t take a lead and hold it, we’re pretty much dead.

It definitely seems that way. They don’t get on base, plain and simple.
I don’t know how you can say “luck in” with defense. If you play good defense all year like they have, that’s not luck.

Well, by "luck" I mean have a stretch where things break our way offensively while the defense/pitching does their job
We’ve had stretches like that this year, and this team has done well under pressure. But I’m just not willing to say I can count on that happening.

From what I heard on the news one night...
McBriar went out there and kicked thirty or forty as high as he could and they put the scoreboard twenty feet higher than his highest kick.
Doesn’t look like that’s the case, though.
