As you mention pride and the team is rapidly racing towards losing a hundred, I now remember a segment from MLB Network where they talked about the 20 Greatest Games (in their eyes at least) and one of the guests was Mitch Williams, who talked about how the 1993 Phillies were picked to come home behind the expansion Marlins before the season, and the memorable quote: "Nothing for nothing, pride at some point in this game has to come into play"
Apparently, the Raccoons have not been humiliated enough so far. Pride has not come into play. That means it's gonna get even worse. That means I have to stock up on chocolates and heart medicine......
And tissues.
This may be a wild winter at the Willamette.
