If this keeps up, I may just start using SLAE to talk about health care reform...
It is bad enough for the Dodgers to lose a baseball game, especially in the midst of what is shaping up to be an historic collapse in the NL West, and especially on a night when the Rockies magic appears to be fully taking hold. But to lose a game when your ninth-inning reliever commits a throwing error on a simple grounder, then walks in the winning run, that is just stupendously infuriating.
The faith that I once had in this team is nearly entirely gone. I feel like each goal I set for the team is being systematically broken, one by one. I am reduced to satisfying myself with the reality that (in all likelihood) we will still make the playoffs; then I want to puke at the thought of settling for the Wild Card. Each day feels like one tiny failure after another, which is horrible because we are still in first place. Imagine what happens if (when?) the Rockies pass us. I can't imagine how the team can have any confidence left.
Remind me, why do I follow sports?
