IF your gonna jump!!
Do it now and save all us the time of reading your threads. Some people really need a reality check. No player is perfect, they make mistake, go into slumps. Amazing how this place BLOWS UP after a frickin loss!

Not that amazing. First taste of playoff baseball in 15 years. Against one of the most hated opponents that any team has (they didn't write a show called Damn Tigers). Even the most even-keeled person with tempered expecations for this team right now is going to have their emotions running a little high.

Also stop to consider that nothing's a given when it comes to MLB play-offs. Teams that have won 100 games have gotten knocked out in the first round.

You've been around here long enough to know what goes on here. The irrational over reactionary threads get outta hand after loses around here. And it seems like with winning, we get a new fan base of them.

People have been saying this for the last few months, and for the first time, I legitimately agree. Originally Posted by Hank Scorpio

I was so nervous before that WC game, but last night, I was just soaking it in.
Which is not to say I won't be disappointed if they don't beat the Yanks, because I will be, but I got what I wanted out of this season from this point. Everything else is a cherry on top.

I can't jump. There are no hills high enough in the low country of South Carolina.

Too late for me.
I had plenty of chances to jump off many a cliff during the last 15-years, but I couldn't do it. Somehow, some way, I thought they might be back. And, well, here they are, warts and all (the all being 93 wins, and eliminating the Texas Rangers).

I don't have a "gonna" and if I did, I wouldn't want it to jump.

I think fans that have stuck by this team the last 15 years, have a right to vent after an ugly loss to the Yankees. Who are we to tell them how to act or feel emotionally after that.

Saying that it's OK to panic and vent is one thing, but the behavior and reaction of Yankee fans should never be used as a barometer for our own. Originally Posted by duffaphonic
