Another “historical” “unlikely”, “thrilling” “epic comeback” coming “from behind”…and the descriptions and superlatives keep coming on the MLB-ALCS play of the STL Cardinals on Friday, October 12, 2012.
With 2 Outs and a strike away from winning in the top of the 9th Inning the Nationals had a 7-5 lead with their CLOSER dominating...in what became an INCREDIBLE INNING for the defending World Series Champions -- the St Louis Cardinals.
Moral of the story cuts two ways: "Don't count your chickens before...", and "Don't quit just because you're down by 2 in the 9th inning, with two outs & in a full count." Because, as Yankee wise man Yogi Berra once said, "It ain't over until it's over."
GO CARDS!

..."It aint over until it's over"... a la Yogi B.
Recruiters should carry this mantra close to heart when the client(s) is unreasonable and the better candidate(s) are just too hard to find, attract...and land. When the going gets tough order some lemonade...and buckle-up bunky..."a la VBM.

@Ryan...I'm not understanding your comment about you will not ever agree with me & the "Yankees are anything bu evil...." ?
My Yankee reference concerns Yogi Berra's famous quote: "It ain't over till it's over"...meaning the Nationals were over confident that they had the 5th game won against the Cards...with a two run lead with 2 outs and a full count in the top of the 9th inning, against the bottom of the STL lineup. The Cards pulled off and won in history making fashion...meaning they didn't give up against tremendous odds against them winning that game.
How that applies to recruiting is to persevere and persist especially when things are not going your way –because there are PEAKS and valleys along the way.
That was the msg I attempted to underscore.

So we we have the Giants right where we want them. Yes, allowing them to tie us in the NLCS and forcing a game 7 is good for the economy and for their confidence. Mañana it will be a different story. GO CARDS!

I agree, Bill. The Giant's effort was valiant. Coming back after being two games down in the NLCS is something else,.
SF should do well against Detroit. Sandoval (Panda) is already showing signs of breaking some records and Zito is being Zito...GO GIANTS!
