Lucky for you there's no chance of that. There's a better chance the
Packers will make the playoffs. See those Vikes last night Jay? 605
yards of offense. Once the defense heals up it will be a machine.

After Saturday night's bloodbath I didn't think there was a chance either,
but that's turning around. The bullpen is getting its job done and all we
need is one or two of our stronger hitters that have gone cold to wake up
and we'll be back. We did sweep the Yanks 4-0 twice this season, mind you,
so it can be done. A lot hinges on what Schilling's ankle does tonight. If
he can pitch 5-6 good innings we'll take it to game 7 at least.

Then again, I'm a lot more concerned about the Nov. 2nd series these days,
and I ain't rootin' for the home team...
