    If you had told me we'd win this game 1-0, I would have asked you to pass the bong. AMAZING!

    Notice how women softball pitchers wear a scaled-down version of a catcher's mask? Good move!!! Some years ago, my daughter ..our best pitcher.. broke her nose doing a goofy batting practice drill put in place by her idiotic coach (who was also her dad). There was significant risk of dangerous bleeding if she got another knock on the schnozz. When I suggested letting her pitch in the state tournament while wearing a mask, it was viewed with dismay, wonder, or contempt by almost everyone, including league officials. She missed her spot in the rotation for the opening game. Fortunately, her backup* rose to the occasion, pitched beautifully, and we won the game. (We didn't win State that year, but we won it the next. ) I also remember when hockey players --including goalies-- played without mask or helmets (and you could smoke on airplanes, &c., &c. heheh) * Her backup was a girl named Katie. I wish I could remember her last name because she was a great teammate. Fortunately, I had the rare good sense to praise her in front of the players and parents for stepping up in a great way.

    I don't need a bunch of numbers I admittedly don't undertand (and which I doubt could ever give a real picture of everything) to smell the stench of that loss from 1000 miles away. BUT..., It was ONE GAME.

    By "all" accounts? I got the idea (admittedly from a single Attanasio interview, post-Hader) that he was being hands-off of Stearns; he basically just shrugged when asked about the Hader deal, though he seemed to passively disavow it. Was he hiding something?

    OK. "could" happen. But I had to flinch at (1) the idea of an easy schedule when beating sub-.500 teams hasn't been that easy so far, and (2) the euphemism of "inconsistent" offense when "consistently sub-par" offense would seem more accurate. But I'd love to be wrong and to eat these words.

    The ultimate doomsday conclusion may be a bit harsh, but the rationale that Stearns made a humongous mistake certainly seems SPOT ON, and Attanasio rather passively confirmed that this was a "major league" screw up. I hope CC can rally the players to overcome the screwup.

    I love this sentence: "[A]ssuming the strategy is to get a ring, fan outrage should pretty much never be considered because fans aren't experts."
