5/19 - Cubs (Maddux) @ White Sox (Buehrle) - 3:05 WGN

I could go for a good ol fashion bench clearing brawl. Something to fire up this team.

 

With the collection nancy speed demons that Hendry has collected, do you really think they'd do well in a brawl against Jenks/Konerko/Thome/Crede/etc.?

 

Big Z > Thome + Konerko + Jenks + Crede

 

and Barrett does MMA in the offseason.

 

In a brawl? Cubs win! Cubs win!

Maybe they should hold footraces. I bet you the Cubs could beat them then. Or maybe a dance off.

Fire isn't what this team needs. Good players is what they need.

 

True. Thats the best i could come up with. Plus it'll be entertaining; which they really arent.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton grounded out to third, 5-3

Neifi would river dance them into the ground.

[Derwood]

May I suggest that the Cubs simply don't show up tomorrow? The forfeit will go down at a 9-0 loss, but that's probably better than the blood bath that would happen if they actually played

[mul21]

Holy crap, a hit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cedeno singled to center field

[kylescubs23]

we got a hit!!!!

Too bad we traded Dubois. He used to do some pretty pirouettes in left field.

Sometimes getting your ass kicked is a good thing. Or wait they are getting there ass kicked right now. nevermind.

They showed up today?

Fire isn't what this team needs. Good players is what they need.

 

How about a fire in the clubhouse?

 

I was going to suggest that earlier when someone mentioned firing guys who left the clubhouse early.

Eventually, after one of these butt whoopings, they are going to get sick of getting their butts kicked and do something about it....... like turn around and get kicked in the groin.

Neifi will protect his groin at all costs.

[cubweiser03]

Good lord. Rusch's belly is STILL growing.

[cheapseats]

Glendon should totally bean Konerko.

 

Glendon + Dusty being suspended = best thing that could happen to Cubs.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

What are you looking for Konerko?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Konerko struck out (called)

[sweetpeteman]

5 runs will not be enough to win the game today. Don't worry about it yet, Cubs fans.

 

GO CUBS!

 

Please explain why you think that the Cobs will score 5 runs against a pretty good pitcher, especially since they cant hit lefties if their lives depended on it.

 

Team speed. With guys like Pierre and Hairston at the top of the order, we can score runs faster than you can blink an eye.

 

GO CUBS!

 

 

Please tell me you're joking...

 

Plus the speed of Cedeno and Perez at the bottom of the lineup.

 

Mark my words, small ball will win this game.

 

GO CUBS!

 

So, what happened to all those runs that great speed was going to score us?

 

 

 

This team is a frick'n joke.

 

 

 

 

Chicago Cubs!

 

Whats the joke?

 

Huh?

 

Well, thats the punchline, whats the joke?

[Omar]

This is the saddest bunch of losers I've ever seen.

[anemic offense]

Here's a good question; which team has more, the White Sox with overachievers, or the Cubs with underachievers?

 

Who is an underachiever on the Cubs? Ramirez, I guess? This team just flat sucks. They've not underachieving. They're just bad. "Underachieving" connotes that they should be playing better. They shouldn't.

 

Ramirez, Walker (power wise), Pierre, Z (until his last few starts), Rusch (he shouldn't be quite THIS bad), Neifi and Blanco (apparently they wanted to get worse), Ohman (shouldn't be this bad).

 

Conversely, the White Sox have virtually every position player playing above their career numbers (and most all are past their prime).

 

I'm not trying to make the argument the Cubs should be blowing teams away. However one can't ignore these two teams' players are operating at opposite ends of the spectrum. To this fan its quite sickening.

[Master Shake]

Guys, What's a home run? Is it a myth like the Loch Ness MOnster, or an honest Illinois politician?
