4/17 Cubs (Miller) vs. Fathers (Maddux), 1:20 pm CT, WGN

[FergieJ31]

11 innings without a run now by Cubs pitching.

 

We can thank Chris and his backward posts for that :lol:

Guys, I don't know why this game thread is still going on.

 

Yahoo has the final already. 1-0 Cubs in a 5 inning game.

 

CUBS WIN!?!

 

According to Yahoo, yeppers.

[E.J.]

So, we just saw commercials for Becker, Home Improvement, America's Funniest Home Videos, and Lizzy McGuire. Quality, quality programming there.

[DiamondMind]

Don't they still have Hoffman?

When did Murton become the whipping boy on this board? He is slumping, just like a ton of other guys on the offense. Soriano, Jones, Izturis, Cedeno, and Barrett have been almost as bad if not worse. I have not been around much latley, but this seems like the last place that would turn on Murton after 30 or so at bats.

 

He's hardly the whipping boy. Actually, I always get the feeling of fighting the crowd when I advocate Floyd starting over him.

 

It seems like you have more than a few on your side, and maybe there is a reason you are fighting a crowd. People here are ripping his average. His average was .300 at the start of the game. If your average can drop 70 points in 1 day, you have not had enough at bats base any decisions on.

 

I miss the good old days when we could unite in our hatred of Macias, Neify, or BOOM BOOM Bynum.

 

Actually, it seems like the trend on this board lately is that the whipping boy is whoever had the last bad AB. I know that oftentimes the posts are said in jest, but it does get a bit old.

99 years.

 

not 99 years until/unless they don't win this year. :D

Same here, but 2-0 Cubs. It must have been called on rain.

[Omar]

Guys.. get on base.. quit trying for the HR.

[Derwood]

If Ohman blows it, can't wait to hear Lou.

 

he has done everything in his power to keep it from coming to that

More like they can't find advertisers willing to invest money on WGN.

[TruffleShuffle]
