luzinski dont act like you are the only one who knows what a statistical longshot this is. We KNOW that there is a 1 in 100 shot We also know that we are a 5 or 6 game win streak away from raising the odds to about 1 in 20. There IS hope. If you cant allow yourself the joy of pondering those types of scenarios then I truely dont understand your passion for being a brewer fan. You could probably prove that there is a 1 in 1 trillion chance that the Royals could lose 18 in a row, but that doesnt mean it didnt happen. There have been far longer shots in sports than this that haven done the ALOMST impossible. Just enoy the freaking ride with the knowledge that something special COULD happen. If you dont, why bother? PS...do you HONESTLY care if they reach 81 or 82 wins? I would rather this team finish with 80 wins 3 games of the WC (not realistic i know) that 88 wins and 10 games out of the WC. At least in the 80 win season, the final 10 games would be exciting and there would at least be a ray of hope.
