Because we're not gonna play the same number of games at the end of the season...

You're trying to slant facts to make your team sound better than you are, just as Hamas put the phantom "(censored)" into Edmonds' quotes.

Well cockmeat, I put WAY more emphasis into the loss column...just like everyone else who pays attention to baseball.

I never go by games back...always by the loss column. It's much more important...not a big sports fan?

Perhaps the stupidest thing you have ever said.

Say a team goes 15-1-0 in the NFL. They're worse than the 0-0-16 team? (Not a realistic scenario, but it proves my point.)

No, it doesn't prove your point. Football and baseball are two totally different sports...

When it comes down to it in baseball, the loss column is what matters...the Cardinals are 7 losses behind the Cubs...

Where would you rather be...

100-62

or

97-60

?

So one team doesn't have to play 5 games, or what?

Where would you rather be? Control your destiny with 5 games to go...or technically be tied in the standing even though you have 2 more losses...

The loss column is completely insignificant for anything other than people trying to extrapolate the chances their team has. It means nothing.

Once again, you are relying on anomalies rather than the law of averages.

If you win 60% of your games, you will most likely win 3/5, regardless of whether you are 1 back in the L column or 10 ahead.

No fucking kidding!

I gave you a scenario...where would you rather be?

That's why the loss column is more important, in baseball, than the win column. The Cardinals are 7 losses back...say they are 6 back or 7 losses back, what's the difference? Rabbidicksucker is just trying to find a reason for you and him to have a suckfest with one another...
