 |
|
It's Saturday, no meetings, but I've got a 2 game winning streak on the line so sure as hell I ain't messing with success!
Get them today, boys, clinch the divisions. Edgar, kick some Rookies ass. We all know you're gonna be great today!
And just for today, instead of "love", read "baseball"
Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my heart
Love is blindness
In a parked car
In a crowded street
You see your love
Made complete
Thread is ripping
The knot is slipping
Love is blindness
Love is clockworks
And cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle
Blow out the candle
Love is blindness
Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness
A little death
Without mourning
No call
And no warning
Baby...a dangerous idea
That almost makes sense
Love is drowning
In a deep well
All the secrets
And no one to tell
Take the money
Honey
Blindness
Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness
Just win, baby!

With the Padres playing earlier, one of the 2 teams will have nothing to play for by the time they start. Either the Rockies get eliminated by a San Diego win, or the D-backs win the division with a Padres loss. |

Clinch it. Wrap it up.
I can't wait for the game. It's gonna be tough. Edgar can do it, though.

It'd be nice to have the division wrapped up before the game starts...I just don't like SD and it would be hilarious if they had to play a one-game playoff on Monday after losing a couple to the Brewers.

It is ironic that after gearing up for the series that the "best" result, if the Padres lose, is for us to lose two games. Then if the Pads lose two they would have to play a playoff game.

I don't think DD is going to pitch tomorrow regardless of what happens today. That being said, let's clinch this thing today!!! Go D-Backs!!!!!

Ok guys, lets win tonight and let DD get ready for the PLAYOFFS.
On a personal note, Thanks to all of the board members for a memoriable season. Being stuck at home like I have been for the last three years, you begin to feel isolated. Being able to share my love of baseball with you all has made all the difference for me. I consider each of you friends that I just haven't met yet. Once again thanks to each of you.
Now lets win the next three series and show everyone else that Arizona Kicks ass.

The way I understand it, if San Diego somehow loses to the Brewers we become the champions of the NL West before we even play tonight's game. |

I think we have to win AND San Diego has to lose... right? Magic number is 2... any combination of AZ wins and SD losses.

Yes, a Padre loss or a D-Backs win makes the Arizona Diamondbacks 2007 NL West division champions.
Back to Stu's irony point, that would indeed be funny in this crazy baseball season. |

Hey gang, I'l tell one thing last night was a hell of a game. After the game they had one el of a celibrationin the locker rom. There was champagne and beer fllowing all over. Ran into D. Hall and the rest of the FO people while we were waiting for Doug to come out. When Doug did come out he was wet from head to toe. Now I can say PLYOFF without jinksing us. PLYOFF, PLAYOFF, PLAYOFF, PLAYOFF and PLAYOFF. There that should cover it.
One more for the division. That's what I'm talking about!
Go - D'Backs |

Nah. Just have SD lose or AZ win and we're good. We have the tiebreaker.

So, in effect, only one of the teams in our game tonight will have anything on the line.
If the Padres win, the Rockies are eliminated from wild card contention and have nothing to gain, whereas we still have to win to become NL West champs.
If the Padres lose, we are the NL West champs and have the best record in the league, whereas the Rockies would still have an outside chance at the wild card.
Interesting... |

Daddy D, I heard some of Doug's commentary on 620AM last night. He's pretty good in interviews. It was an interesting listen. |
