This is what people fail to see. There is zero depth in this organization from a starter standpoint. They are an injury away from a major major problem.

Freddy’s points are valid:
- very few people thought this team could compete for the playoffs. His numbers say “yes, they can.”
- Back to the ol debate as to whether games in April actually count compared to games in Aug and Sept. yes they do.
-Some people will want to slam the team if they lose two in a row. The point is that playing just 2 games above .500 the rest of the way is a lot less myopic then counting every two game losing streak. Or three. Or four. If the goal is to win 2 games more than you lose then the short term streaks all fit within a winning plan.
Seems like good points to me....

It all comes down to superstition. I winced the day this thread came out....and we have sucked ever since. Therefore, I am going to exercise the demons and drive a stake in this thread. Let's see if we can get the first number down to 72 after this game.
