Seriously... The Sox Just Don't Want It

I have been optimistic all season...  and to be honest, how can't you when your team has remained in 1st place for the majority of the baseball season.  But last night, the last little flicker of optimism burnt out.  We're screwed. 

Like years past, while this Twins team is in no way better than the Sox talent wise, they want it more...  at least when they play the Sox.  When they're playing Tampa Bay or Detroit or New York it seems like they don't want it either.  However, what do you expect with two teams that have bullpens who have yet to see a home run they don't like to give up (i.e. Boone Logan and Matt Guerrierlast night)!

Seriously...  if the Sox lose tonight they will slip closer towards not making the playoffs.  But, even if they are swept in this three game series they will end up only a half game back of Minnesota.  Then, imagine this...  they win all three at home while the Twins sweep K.C. at home.  This puts the Sox .5 games back with a make up game to play with Detroit!  If the Sox win that one they will be in a tie with Minnesota which will require some sort of playoff and a further extension of the season.

This is what a crazy person thinks of when they are hooked on a win and the playoffs.  At this point I've dedicated so much time to this team, to see them give up the 1st place division title and the playoffs is enough to make me want to pack up, move to Minnesota and become a Twins fan!

There...  I said it!

I sent a text to the Squad last night which read, "These ass****s f***in suck!"

His responded, "Agreed."

The End...

Oh, hey-

They announced a couple weeks back that the 1 game playoff (if needed) between the Sox/Twins would be at comiskey.

Also, If we get swept by the Twins, then sweep the Indians, but Minny wins 2/3 to KC, we still have to play the extra game against Detroit, since we'll be 1/2 game ahead of Minny.

How do you like that?
