I wish we won every series and every game.  I also wish we did nothing but improve through the season on an exponentially increasing line.  But I live in the real world.  I know that if we fail to do so, it is not because the team didn't put in enough effort or follow their internet followers' absurd declarations about lack of drive and heart.  It is fine to admit when we are disappointed and hope for better but the often juvenile declarations about the team's failures add nothing to the discussion and analysis of the team or the season.  Also, Beat Cal!

Cheers, 
Pete F.

Indeed.  As Troy put it earlier in the thread, "the other team is trying to win too".  This is especially true in baseball, where fractions of an inch can make the difference between a base clearing double that keeps the rally going and an inning-ending fly out.
