ROAD TRIP!!!

[fimg=390:3dyidzab]http://venividivici.us/sites/default/files/John-belushi-animal-house.jpeg[/fimg:3dyidzab] Final one of the year - and obviously a biggie as the idea is to get this thing clinched before ever getting back. Itinerary: Cincy for four. Day off Monday. Philly for three. Meanwhile the Nats have the extra game remaining (11 games to our 10). They do one more with Baltimore (at 4 this afternoon), then host Philly for three, have a one-game make-up with the Reds on our off-day Monday, then go to Atlanta for three. Obviously taking five of seven gets us there and should be quite doable. 4-3 clinches a tie even if the Nats manage to run the table. And even 3-4, as disturbing as that would be given the competition, would force them to go 7-1 in order to make the final series meaningful (read: cringe-worthy.).

I don't see the Nats going better than 5-3, but let's start with the Mets just winning tonight. A week of dragging their feet is enough.

Maybe getting out of Dodge is just what this pony needs.

NOTHING is over until WE decide it is! So decide, already. Smash their acoustic guitars, take advantage of their party guests, and find dates for three of my friends.

We need five positive outcomes out of 15 games in order to clinch before the final series. I shouldn't worry, right? Why should I let myself worry?

I can just hear Ahnie as Conan the Barbarian saying, "Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women. " And I like his version much better. Kill KILL KILL!

Yeah, the Nationals can easily go 6-2. Most of those games are against the Braves and the Phillies.

What can I say? You fucked up, you trusted me. Actually I noticed that too. But when you're looking for is a pic of Belushi yelling you tend to jump on the first thing you find. IIRC, Belushi was one of several guys who pretty much mouthed 'ROAD TRIP' all at once and so there probably isn't a shot of that.

When they started showing that flick on TV -- like on Channel 11 in NYC -- you figure they'd cut the language and whatnot. But they also cut that Bluto chugging the Jack Daniels scene. Guess they figured it was a bad influence on impressionable minds.
