Pie k's

[C.C.]

I hope freakin Marquis goes yard with Pie on

 

And we'll still lose in the bottom of the 9th!

[DiamondMind]

haha they're boing Marquis

Goats of the game:

 

Carlos Zambrano (he sucked)

Scott Eyre (almost makes Ohman look not-so-bad in comparison)

Cesar Izturis (double clutching fool)

Matt Murton (allergic to home plate)

Ryan Theriot (inevitable rally killing DP)

 

The DP on Theriot was a VERY tough DP to pull off. Granted it wasn't great hitting from Theriot, but I'm not willing to make him a goat of the game. This game was a mess far before that point.

Marquis PH for Cotts

They don't score much, maybe Murton forgot what home plate looked like. Edited April 19, 2007 by rynefan

For the record, I blame Z's bad performance on the lack of Blue jerseys. He always did great while wearing those...

[RichHillIsABeast]

could Wickman BE ANY FATTER????

 

Eyre says yes.

[Magnetic Curses]

maybe the players believe in curses because nutbags like sully believe in curses. it's all so dumb.

 

and that's more rational than believing in curses, how?

 

Quiet or I'll put the leeches on you again

 

at this point anything would be better than listening to the game.

[Soul]

Wow, Wickman. Time for surgery pal.

[KingCubsFan]

What exactly did Murton do?

[killthegoat06]

I got home after 6 innings. I thought, o well its the cubs. I checked the score mid 7th. I was pumped. I've been watching since ... Which loss is most painful. Friday (lost game in 5th), Sunday (6th inning 1st,3rd no outs), or today?

That to me is THE goat. We needed a "Ace" performence from our ace and he didn't get it done.

 

I'm with you!

[obcubs]

why are we in a situation where a pitcher is batting down two in the ninth?

[CubmanPi]

What exactly did Murton do?

Nothing. Coulda scored on a ground out and a WP. He sat there.

[David]

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A CURSE.

 

Anyone who believes otherwise is freaking kidding themselves.

[rynefan]

Sox get a no hitter, we get Marquis pinch hitting... GO NORTH SIDE

This one. It's combined with a White Sox no-hitter, and a massive Bulls choke job in NJ.

 

This is like a nuclear freaking holocaust.

[DiamondMind]

lol marquis has more patience than half our team

[Banedon]

What exactly did Murton do?

 

Failed to score from 3rd on a high chopper to third with one out, and then failed to score from 3rd on a crazy wild pitch that bounced around like a pinball.
