No matter how the team performs, this has been a funny thread. Everyone, especially JC, has been keeping me smiling instead of crying.

 

Don't encourage JC.

 

yes, I think he is a lawyer, be VERY careful

 

Legal engineer.

 

 

well, thats WORSE

 

 

:P

Maddux K's Castilla. This game isn't looking good.

 

Don't worry. We've got Theriot on the bench now if we need late-inning power.

[UMFan83]

and Piazza singles giving the Padres a 3-0 lead. Unbelievable.

 

Sadly, its quite believable.

[BigbadB]

Walker would have made for a really good lead off guy.

[Flames24Rulz]

Walker walks.

[UMFan83]

Todd WALKer

[Irrelevant Dude]

There's only one man who could light a fire under this Cubs team right now...

 

 

You guessed it, Andres Nocioni!

[cheapseats]

Walker would have made for a really good lead off guy.

 

He's not fast enough.

[badger1679666666]

What's Walkers OBP now? It's gotta be respectable.

 

And please no GIDP.

[Banedon]

Walker would have made for a really good lead off guy.

 

OMGWTF he has no speed! He can't lead off!

[Bull]

Walker would have made for a really good lead off guy.

Can you imagine Z and Noc on the same bench?

 

Actually, can you imagine Z and Noc sitting on your living room couch drinking with you?

[JC]

Walker would have made for a really good lead off guy.

 

OMGWTF he has no speed! He can't lead off!

 

Without speed, how can you steal first?

[Banedon]

LOL...where was that pitch?

[Chris]

BTW Len, I cannot believe you didn't know the voice of the Aflac duck

Without speed, how else can you make a groundout to second look really really really close?

[BigbadB]

BTW Len, I cannot believe you didn't know the voice of the Aflac duck

 

Who does the voice? And don't say "the duck".

[JC]

BTW Len, I cannot believe you didn't know the voice of the Aflac duck

 

No kidding.

[Bull]

BTW Len, I cannot believe you didn't know the voice of the Aflac duck

 

Who does the voice? And don't say "the duck".

 

the du -- oh, nevermind.

[BigbadB]

Look at Walker attempting to manufacture a run. You don't need to be fast.

[Banedon]

If this run doesn't score, I'm going to bed.

[JC]

Sweet. Chris Young does his job and moves the runner over.

[cheapseats]

Walker speeds to third!

Gilbert Gottfried for an FYI.

[BigbadB]

Walker for lead off!

 

Repeat chorus!
