Loss.

ctcf · June 2, 2007

I've tried to care, be optimistic but yesterday's game and the fight really did it for me. This team has packed it in.

I'm tapping out.

bcruise · June 2, 2007

How can you possibly top yesterday?

We always find a way.

I agree. It was a dagger.

I can't stop watching now. Who knows what you might see. It's must see TV.

That's the great thing about baseball you never know what your going to see.

Fixed.

macuser2 · June 2, 2007

Oh no! I just cheked the tv schedule and the game will bet available locally; no blackout. And it will be too early to get drunk. Oh wait. "it's five o'clock somewhere". :P

rynefan · June 2, 2007

Yeah, yesterday finally did it for me. I will still watch, but not really care. That was the game I needed to really believe this year is over!

Fred Hornkohl · June 2, 2007

It's just like a train wreck, you know...... you want to look away, but you just can't.

JeffH · June 2, 2007

Let's hope this is rock bottom for the season.

Don't be ridiculous.

There is no end to the ways the worst organization in the history of human civilization can embarass itself and its fans.

The next step...players fighting fans.

I'm sure that's happened before.

Schwarber Fan · June 2, 2007

Why is this game an :05 instead of a :20?

I'm guessing it has to do with FOX somehow...

Do you remember that Dodgers game about 8 years ago?

Cubbies are taking this one! Hill will throw 7 innings, and the bullpen actually will get a save!

Pretty much crushed my spirit.

What else is new. Why do we toture ourselves every single year?

Butterscup1679666578 · June 2, 2007

Man, some of the one-liners in this thread are comedy gold.

Go Cubs. Try hitting some baseballs this game instead of each other, dbags.

I'm obviously a huge fan of Z (at times) and Barrett has always been one of my favs. To see those guys play a part in really damaging the team really did it for me.

Lockes Eye Scar · June 2, 2007

still no lineups?

6/2 Braves (James) vs Cubs (Hill), 12:05, WGN-TV, XM-189
