Phillies season 9

[WEST is GOD]

This is the first absolute must-win game for the Phillies and they blow it. The other games were important too, but this is the most important game of the year so far, and each game after this becomes increasingly more important.

Especially with the opportunity to gain ground on Houston, Atlanta both.

Right now they are responding like they usually do in pressure situations. Part of the reason why I hate this team and the franchise.

Let's go Shane!  Do it for Hawaii.

You are correct sir!

Cormier in this ones gonna get ugly

This wasnt a must win. 2 back with 8 to play is doable. But, the knowledge that they couldve been 1 back and the fact that they had a 6-1 lead over a second division team is certainly extreamly disappointing. they need to get within 1 game of houston by the end of this weekend. phils win the next two, houston splits, we can do it. this ones real tough to swallow (teehee) but the season is not over. yet.

farg you and your attempts to bring hope! I'll not have it! Lies I say! Lies!

im really pissed about this, too. but the fact is tommorrow they have a game and they still are in playoff contention. this one is tettering on being one of the worst losses in recent phils history. i dont see how a team can expect to make the playoffs and blow a 6-1 lead to the no good reds on the second to last weekend of the season. but, we thought they were done after the astros series. and things were lookin bad after the first braves game. this team keeps coming back, so maybe theyll win the next two and make this one iinteresting last week.

Hope is merely perspective.

Mathematically... no, this isn't a must-win. A must-win game literally is they have to win or they lose the wild card spot. If you look at things mathematically then there is no way you should say it's over if you are a Phillies fan. Pessimism is defense mechanism to prevent yourself from being let down. Nonetheless it's the most important game of the season and they are losing. That is all that matters right now. Tomorrow it no longer matters.

I'd love to hear Abreu's busted ass English during that arguement.
