Blame what you may, but there might still be a little something left in us. You see, the way I look at it is, this has been 22 years coming, there’s an immense amount of pressure. Picture this; you are the starting pitcher for a team that hasn’t been in the postseason since you were 2 years old (yes I am referring to Marcus Stroman), of course you are going to be a little bit shaky. This entire team has A NATION riding on them, I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t know how to deal with that.

Ok so we lost the first two games of the series, NOT ALL HOPE IS GONE YET. People tend to tell me I’m too optimistic about my teams but WHY WOULD I BE NEGATIVE? The fact that jays made the playoffs alone is an accomplishment within itself, and by the way that they showcased themselves in the regular season, there’s not a doubt in my mind that they can’t take it all the way. I know that may be hard to picture considering the position they’ve put themselves in at the moment, but I’m going to quote my boy Bieber here and tell you to NEVER SAY NEVER.

I think that us, as Canadian baseball fans need to band together sing, “Hooked on a feeling” and maybe just maybe we can believe again. The series isn’t over until it’s over… we have some time left.

Marco Estrada is set to start for game 3 in Texas. I’ll be sitting on the couch, with my dad next to me praying for greatness. I know the jays have it in them, I just know it.

 IM HOOKED ON A FEELING, HIGH ON BELIEVING.

 GO JAYS GO.
