Fair enough!
I'll believe it when I see it.
They just lost 5 out of 6 on the road.
Right now, everyone just wants them to win at least 82 games.
However, with this being the first year that two wild card teams from each league make the playoffs, the Pirates should at least make that one game wild card game.
But, again, I'll believe it when I see it.

Oh. Thanks for that insight. Is that like, "If it's true, it's true?"
The Bucs will fold up like a cheap lawn chair, in the hot, humid air of a "Sant" Louis summer.

I'm enjoying this. I still will be very surprised if we make the playoffs but if we end the season several games above .500 then it will be a successful season.
I'm also rooting for the Pirates. :banana:

Not so. Tom House had admitted that he took steroids in the 1960's-70's.

:mmph: ...was nothing sacred back then!
IT'S OVER!!!
After 20 straight losing seasons, the Pirates are guaranteed to finish .500 or above this year.

The Pirates won their 82nd game tonight.
That means that no matter what, the Pirates will finish with a winning season this year.

1970 was 43 years ago, but it appears Dock Ellis is still doing drugs, or is completely "fried" from doing drugs.

Dock Ellis is dead.
He worked for many years as a drug and alcohol counselor, helping other addicts.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are in the postseason for the first time since 1992! Congrats to the Pirates and their long suffering fans.
