thank god i am going to be working during this game tomorrow

[TysonCBulls423]

The crush the Reds picture hasn't been working out for the Brewers or for us.

[Sammy Sofa]

I'd assume we'd lose, but knowing how [expletive] things are in Cubs' land we'll probably trounce a hot hurler like Haaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrghang.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Just win, bitches.

[inari]

Eh, I'll be at Crossroads Guitar Festival. Thankfully, this game will be out of sight and out of mind.

[Andy]

Beat the Harangutan please

[UMFan83]

[Lockes Eye Scar]

STOP LOSING TO THE REDS... 2-5, ughhhh

[CubmanPi]

[Butterscup1679666578]

[JimSorgi]

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

[soccer10k]

God, I'm getting so annoyed with this team this past week and I don't know why. Just take these last two please.

 

I'm guessing that whole losing thing has something to do with it.

[TruffleShuffle]

Harang will throw 15 innings and shut the cubs out 1-0

[Schwarber Fan]
