Nobody move. Nobody shave any body surfaces (unless you do so daily) or get a haircut or do anything else that might disturb the delicate balance of the world in which we live. You know, the one in which the Cardinals, who have a makeshift rotation and a load of inexperienced kids from the farm, are 5-1 on the year. If you have been wearing the same underwear all week, well then you're just going to need to keep wearing it a while longer. For the team. Not for career or personal advancement, obviously.

Now I know full well that we didn't just steamroll the Mets or the Mets or any other team predicted to be outstanding this season, but you don't just get five free wins from major league squads. I've never predicted this season to be good!, but I have noted that last year the talking heads said the Nationals would be terrible. As in 100 loss potential terrible. Before that, it was the Marlins. And after that point my memory fails me, but not only did those teams fail to meet that expectation, they gave the playoffs a good, somewhat healthy run.

I'm posting this link right now and I'll save a copy of it just in case I ever need to refer back to it, which I'm sure I will because I always love to look back and reread season predictions after all is done.

In any case, don't forget to watch ESPN tonight and listen to Joe Morgan fumble around for a not-so-graceful way to change his outlook on our Birds.
