Lack of posts in this thread = most NSBBers are bandWGNers and not true fans.

 

Or, most of us can't get inspired to post when the team is this pathetic. It doesn't mean we've stopped watching the games (or reading posts).

CUBS have been striking out less all season.

That fan got more cheers than the Cubs have in May.

CUBS are 0-24 when they trail after 8 innings.

Why in God's name is Ohman still pitching?

[Guancous]

What's the worst month in Cubs history? I figure that this can't be rock bottom with our history of futility.

Andy MacPhail blames their struggles on clutch hitting.

 

As he pointed out recently, they're last in the league.

 

Of course, he didn't mention that their overall OBP and SLG is last in the league, too, and that their team OBP with runners in scoring position is actually slightly higher than their overall OBP.
