We Will Win Tonight

I never like to make guarantees but tonight I can feel it in my heart.

Somehow, someway, the A's will find a way to win tonight and Loaiza will come through.

I was so upset last night but that anger turned to joy as I know this team will rebound.

The 2006 Oakland A's have taken us all on a roller coaster ride from April to October and it isn't about to end, NOT YET! This team has too much heart and fight and despite what Chavez says, too much talent to lay down and let the Tigers do what they want to us.

So here's to tonight, the night where the A's once again show us what they are made of; which is more then what 26 other teams are made of.

Harden, Haren and Zito will be awaiting the Tigers back in Detroit and trust me, Detroit won't like what they see but every A's fan will.

I can feel it too...

I would have been more concerned if they were completely shut down last night - but the opportunites were there - they were knocking on the door... Tonight the A's emphatically open that door and slam it shut on the Tiggers...

Matchups are better tonight
Robinson may not be as good as Verlander, but we are a better matchup with Verlander IMO.  If we win tonight, I like our chances in Games 3-5, because Harden and Haren were the guys I wanted to start Games 1 & 2, and Zito has had his obligatory wildly bad start for the month.  
Please let 2006 be the year, and without an earthquake this time.

Yeah, I was a little upset last night that we lost
but the thing that kept me from being totally outraged and/or depressed was the fact that we were getting guys on base. Those guys are going to score tonight.

I like the PREDICTION!!!!!!!!!
Let's go Oakland.  After Friday, the Cal game Saturday, and the game last night, I'll be lucky if my voice lasts through the 4th inning.

So PUMPED.... Let's go OAKLAND!!!

Unless they are losing in the 5th inning

OR
0 for 6 with RISP.  Now 0 for 7.  Now 0 for 8.  Etc., etc., etc.

Hopefully we'll get off to a good start and AN will be a harmonius place to be this evening.

what's funnier then you two goofs pretending
to be the leader's of the "Non-Realistic" police, my constant claims of us not hitting w/risp came back to really kick us in the behind last night.

Tonight I'm know it will be different.

Just because you refuse to see what really happens on the field sometimes, doesn't make you anymore of a fan then I'am.

Go A's and let's get this thing back even.

You miss our point entirely
Noone called you nonrealistic.  Perhpas someone called you manic depressive, but hey, I've been on meds for a long time so I ain't judgin' you.

Just a hunch...
But I feel like Kendall is going to come up big somehow.

A ding-dong on the horizon??
I'll take 2 base knocks and a key throw out while someone is trying to steal 3rd.
