[UMFan83]

I think I'm going to go on anti-depressants. It's either that or stop being a fan of the Cubs

 

I've tried not being a fan. To my horror, I discovered it's a disease that has no cure. Believe me, if I could escape I would have long ago.

 

I tried to become an Oakland fan the first time Dusty started Neifi this year, but I'm addicted. As much as I hate myself for it, I'm addicted. :)

 

That's actually a good idea. When do Frank Thomas and Co. play today?

 

Focus on the minor leaguers. There is always optimism in the future.

 

No all they provide false hope that the future will be better when in my heart I know its not.

What the heck is that?

[UMFan83]

Jones better still be hurt because he just dogged it on that play.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones grounded to first, safe at first on a fielding error, E1

[Schwarber Fan]

Jones reaches :shock:

 

i'll take it

[Chris]

Izzy didn't bother trying to use the glove

Game over.

 

The parade of depression continues.

[Schwarber Fan]

ballgame.... sweep tomorrow....

[USSoccer]

I love him...he's my favorite player, but Ramirez has to pick it up if we're going to have any chance.

[cubfan1955]

Well, that was a pretty uninspired effort today. They should have scored a lot of runs off of Ponson. Dusty did not have his troops ready to play...yet again.

[CubinNY]

The Cubs need a GAME from Mad Dog tomorrow.

 

Dusty give them a tounge lashing after this game please.

 

Either that or call up the entire AAA team and let them play a game.

[otis89]

What the hell is this team's problem?

[Soul]

So much for the whole "rally in the face of injury" thing.

[cubfan1955]

After seeing the efforts of the lat two games Maddux might call in sick tomorrow. :D

 

j/k

[otis89]

So much for the whole "rally in the face of injury" thing.

 

The only time I've ever seen the Cubs do that is the game where Prior took a line drive off the elbow. The offense exploded that game.
