[ToupeeOnFire]

Santo is being swamped with angry/frustrated faxes.

[Jim Ignatowski]

Is this yet another new low?

 

If the Pirates lose today, yes this will be a new low.

 

In other news, Phil Mickelson is tied with Kenneth Ferrie for the lead after three rounds at plus 2.

[Larry Horse]

You have to admit, this team is so bad it's pretty damn funny.

At least Dusty got Neifi an at-bat. :roll:

Yes. I love meaningless runs.

Elaborate?

 

he cant elaborate on most of them haha

[E.J.]

If the Pirates can find a way to win tonight we could be tied for last place. Way to go Cobs!!! 15 games under .500!!! Way to go Losers.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Elaborate?

Nothing really. He was just talking about getting lots of faxes from frustrated Cub fans and bascially responded by saying, "Amen. I hear ya."

[Balsa]

Good news today is that Juan Pierre was 2-4 with a walk.

 

Anything to increase his trade value is great.

Man this is tough. I want the Pirates to win to help the Cubs move down (up) in the Fecal League Standings, but my man Boof Bonser is pitching for the Twins and I can't root against him.

i can not wait to see him go, i hate how everyone keeps say he works so hard, too bad for him when you suck, you just suck

From Chicago, Cubs lose...and that's the way it is, Saturday, June 17, 2006.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Dusty post game highlights:

 

We're not scoring runs...

 

They have a very good team...

 

Lots of firepower up and down their line-up...

 

Will be a tremendous boost getting Prior, Wood and Miller back...

 

Pitching is the name of the game...

 

We've got guys from AAA and AA playing, not complaining, that's just the way it is...

 

Yada, yada, yada...same 'ol, same 'ol.

[muntjack]

Dudes,

 

 

It was obvious that with two outs in the bottom of the ninth, this team showed it's true heart. There is no quit in these guys, dude. The worm turned, and we started finding holes.

 

Prior will start tomorrow and I guarantee that we will lose by less than six runs! Soon Pagan will be back and we will have even MORE speed. With a lineup of

 

Pierre

Neifi

Bynum

Pagan

Ramirez

Mabry

Blanco

Cedeno

 

We will have a combo of speed and power heretofore unseen in the big leagues.

HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA. Oh boy, always count on Dusty for a laugh. Maybe in 2004 I'd believe that Dusty.

 

Pitching is the name of the game...

Which is why we scored only one run until a meaningless 2 run 9th?

My god. Just one day after Rusch "pitches". @#$@ing ridiculous.
