Okay I'm going to try to be really nice here. I don't protect myself from disappointment, I've been watching sports for a long time dude, I'm not one of those guys who bets against my team so that I'm happy either way. I'm not one of those idiots, you're trying to peg me a certain way and you don't know me and you're wrong.
I've made my point about the pitching relative to the offense. If you want to discuss this point I'm happy to have a civilized discussion with you, I'm only uncivilized to people if they come after me first. If the opinions of a message board make this less fun for you, that probably says something about your state of mind.
I'm actually really enjoying this playoff drive, I'd much rather be in a playoff drive with a chance to make the playoffs than not, obviously. But I'm honest about my opinion, I'm honest about what I think of my team, I'm honest about the fact that we're not in the playoffs yet and I'll celebrate when we get there. Okay, friend!
