1. Maybe us too
If our stupid front office would get off their asses and look for a goddamn closer.

6. My team won 86 games last year. They blew 31 saves
Can you imagine them if they had a half-decent closer?

Today, same story. The fireballer rookie comes in with a 4-2 lead. One walk, two singles, and two doubles later, it's a 6-4 loss. To the Pirates.

My patience with our front office is over.

9. 31 blown saves is like 25 too many.

17. Meanwhile, in Tampa, Jason Isringhausen is the SET UP MAN!
Yeah, he might have blown the game today, but he's at least a proven closer, not some no-name gas can.

18. That was a muy estupido move on the part of the Cards General Management.

19. Getting rid of Izzy?
He was one-half of the worthless duo who blew all those saves.

23. Sorry. My blood pressure's rising.
Last year should have been a great one. Everyone did their jobs except Bad (Franklin) and Worse (Izzy). :cry:

24. I was lucky to finally see the new Busch last year
We played the Brewers.

Game 1: Franklin blew it. (Bill fucking Hall game winning home run)
Game 2: Franklin blew it. (Rickie fucking Weeks game winning home run)
Game 3: Some other hack in the bullpen blew it. (Some long, painful rally)

25. Ouch. That hurts.
I've never been to the new park. I think if I go, I'm leaving after the 8th.

28. Sounds like a good idea
Seriously, it's almost better to be down going into the ninth than up by three or fewer runs. Once DimWitt and Mo(ron) finally open up their enormously fat wallets for one tested arm, we'll start to contend. But I don't think that'll happen.
