Turns out the rangers needed us more tonight. Hope you're all happy. Looking at you KRAM1

Oh I agree, but if you've watched LaRussa's career, he's much more match-up driven than any other manager. Hopefully, Wash learned his lesson here and doesn't try to get in a chess match with the rost

amazing game last night, sorry but CJ Wilson plain sucks, not sure how he Houdinied himself out of so many jams, but he is not a clutch post-season pitcher, so maybe Doc Gooden was right.

Napoli rocks though.

I don't think pushing three 10 year olds to the grouond to make a catch on Green Hill on opening day is going to get you MVP of the World Series, sir.

I've got to tie my cart to something.... Kevin Kolb has really let me down as of late.

This could be the biggest game in Rangers history. I know Texas is up 3-2 but I am still very nervous. People like to make paralells from this series to the Mavs series with the Heat but I think STL will be a lot tougher. My prediction is the Rangers will pull it out tonight and win the whole thing. I think Colby pitches a good (not stellar) game and the offense erupts in the middle innings.

I hope I am right. I think this game is a must win because should the Rangers lose tonight I don't expect them beating STL at home for a game 7. So tonight has to be the night. I hope they have one more win in them this season.

To further illustrate that point, a guy on another board I visit pointed this out.

In the last 30 years, in Game 6’s, the home team is 11-4. In Game 7’s, the home team is 8-0.

From what I can tell (though it’s easy to miss due to Baseball-Reference’s poorly organized postseason pages, there have been 10 instances (in the same 30 years) of the road team having a 3-2 series lead going into Game 6.

7 of those times, the home team won the final two games of the series to clinch it.

So, yes...I think the Rangers need to win tonight.

Casual fan? One Carpenter.

The only time he went on three days rest in his whole career(NLCS)...he was not Chris Carpenter. Didn't even make it out of the 4th against the Brewers if I recall. Not expecting much from him tomorrow.

Jesus was a carpenter.

After a tough loss, he managed a pretty amazing performance on 3 days rest.

Not saying, just saying.

Wish I could still give you plus ones.

      Keeler to Temple

      Temple was in the AAC championship against Herman and UH the year they had one loss then wiped the floor with FSU in the Peach Bowl.

      I hope we lose to Temple

      This thread has some loser talk that rivals some of the legendary loser-talk threads on this board. I wanted Seth to beat UTSA even if it meant more Seth. I wanted them to win the CUSA title game even if it meant more. Do we want to win or to be right on the internet? I want them to win. I don't like mixing up Seth LIttrell's tenure and Eric Morris'. Morris, the admin, and the roster etc all made a mistake in trying to keep the good from the old and turn what was there into a winning team. Morris said he made that mistake. He had to change the entire roster. That had to wait a year. So we are essentially in year one. I've written a ton that the roster is filled with youth and underclassman. I see a lot of others have made this same point in this thread. It is true. Some of us gave money 15 years ago in the hopes of this or that but that doesn't mean you can turn a handful of freshman into AAC champions. Quinton Hammonds, Brian Nelson, Landon Sides, Wyatt Young, Mercer, even McGill are all contributors. It goes on and on. The dudes making freshman mistakes were well, freshman. The upperclassmen guys we needed to do some leading and carry things? Well Chandler Morris did that and a couple of DLmen, but a lot of others were hurt. Some just didn't produce. The foundations for next year begin in this recruiting cycle. Morris will discuss the signings on Dec 4 -- we'll know if he has some solid incoming guys. We know he can bring in talent. I like that they improved the DL for this season -- it was worse last year -- but they need more. They need more OL, too. They need more playmakers all along the defensive side. I put some of that on the last coaching staff. Seth had missed hard on defense for about 5 years. He rotated through a bunch of dudes with no luck. We had a patchwork defense with which Bennett did the best he could. The defense has been bad. Morris has made a move to change that. Whoever comes in -- I think we'll see a hire fairly quickly these next couple weeks -- will have a summer to find guys to plug in the holes -- DL, Linebacker, rush end. Is that enough? Dunno. Morris will be looking for experienced, play-making WRs I can tell you that. A Damon Ward who doesn't have the yips and can stay on the field.
