2013 Oakland A's thread | Page 123

I will be so pissed if the crowd stays after game 5 if we lose and cheer for the A's after our moral victory of making the playoffs with a low budget. It makes us seem pathetic as a franchise.

It was fine for last year because of the unexpected nature of the team's success. It won't be OK this year because expectations are higher.

But it won't matter, since the A's will win.

You want experience. Not some kid who has only started a handful of games.

Honestly I don't care about who starts. I'm so let down by todays game. The Tigers have all the momentum. THe A's had f**king bases loaded no outs and our 3 minor league 6,7,8 batters just fell apart. All they had to do was make contact.

I know. I felt the same way

But we're one game away from the ALCS. There's no reason to be depressed until after we lose game 5

If we were facing Fister at home yes I would agree but we are facing Justin effin Verlander. That 'one game away' is so far ahead. I hope we win I really do but I truly believe this was our chance and boy did we have multiple chances.
