10/1 A Full Circle Mea Culpa or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Embrace the Offseason

[mauidano]

Our long national nightmare is over. Just a sad day for multiple reasons.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Thanks, everyone, for the company.

 

[fenwaypaul]

Water!

 

[S. H. Frog]

Until spring, then, goodbye.

 

[donutogre]

See you for game one, @LogansDad

 

[patinorange]

Thanks, everyone, for the company.

Thank you and all fellow threaders. Game threads are fun, win or lose.

 

[moonshotmanny]

Water for Wake. Glad we won this one.

 

[absintheofmalaise]

The game threads were a bright spot in this season of loss. Thanks everyone.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Could']nt even tank enough past the TIgers / Guardians. Welp.

 

[MuzzyField]

WATER for Wake, indeed!

I’ll miss the game poems, but not the team.

 

[TomBrunansky23]

I always make it a point to listen to Joe call the last couple of innings on the radio. A sad day made sadder today by the loss of Wake. Brighter times ahead...I bet we go into next season with higher hopes. It's been a while since we could say that.

Cue BoSoxLady...time for the Green Fields.

 

[Bergs]

Cora's post-game actually makes me want him back for 2024.

 

[LogansDad]

Thanks for, well, a season, everyone. And putting up with me for one more.

 

[budcrew08]

Maybe 2024 will be “Win it For Wake.” It’s always a trip on the game threads, win, lose or otherwise. Sad the season is over, optimistic that change is coming.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I will miss you lunatics. Namaste until March.

 

[Bergs]

"There comes a time when every summer will have something of autumn about it."

Fucking right.

 

[twibnotes]

Sad year and it got so much sadder today. Hope next year is more fun and hopeful

 

[joe dokes]

I will miss you lunatics. Namaste until March.

It's been fun. In the same way hiking a boulder strewn mountain is fun. Sometimes not fun in the moment. But always looked back upon fondly.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Ah, pack away the bats and balls.

Hug your loved ones, tight, everyone. Truck day will be here before you know it.

 

[YTF]

Thanks, everyone, for the company.

Thank you and all fellow threaders. Game threads are fun, win or lose.

Ditto. Here's to a fruitful off season and the return of the franchise which has brought us so many thrills in the 2000's.

 

[Rovin Romine]

I will miss you lunatics. Namaste until March.

Hear! Hear!

 

[Norm Siebern]

Thank god the Yankees are down here in the fucking mud with us.

Fuck the Orioles, Asstros and the Rays. I will pull for any other team over these 3 bottom feeding franchises.

+1

I am not sure what bottom feeding means here. I am against the Os and Rays winning simply b/c they are my team's most immediate rivals, being members of the same division. I am against the Astros b/c they have won enough already and some of the same players who cheated are still on the team. The only teams I would like to see advance are the Brewers and the Twins, just b/c I have nothing against them. I expect the Braves to win it all, however.

I resent teams that are intentionally bad forever when they get good. The Orioles and Asstros did this. The Rays are just a demonic entity and always have been.
