[TruffleShuffle]

solid start

<3 JJ

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones singled to left field

[E.J.]

Seriously, why does Soriano keep leading off? Move him down in the lineup already. This is getting ridiculous.

[SouthSideRyan]

BB starting the game very annoyed with the Cubs. Good for him.

[Guest]

Good for Jones, 5 pitch AB and all, but I'd rather see Kendall at the 2-spot if he's in the game (of course I would prefer Soto over Kendall and of course I'd prefer Soriano not leading off).

[SouthSideRyan]

I'm so sick of Cliff Floyd.

[aerosmith21]

Anybody know why Jacque points to the dugout after a base hit?.........u c that blue was guna call that outside and changed his mind on the 1-1 pitch to Lee?

Can we stop this? We all know it's not going to happen. They basically promised Soriano the leadoff spot, and he sucked those two games he wasn't there, so Lou is going to go off that. I don't agree with it either, but Soriano is our leadoff man for the rest of the year.

D Lee struck out swinging

[kente777]

Lee K's on a good lookin pitch.

Me too. I'd rather have Ward getting all this PT instead (or Murton, doesn't matter).

I'm giving blood before the game tonight, just so it takes that much less time to get drunk while trying to put up with this pathetic team.

I just got back from the blood truck and started drinking. I'm currently down one pint of blood and up a beer and a half.

 

Now score some runs, you stinking soap-droppers!

What happened to Cynosure? He posted about 1000 posts in 2 or 3 days. Then he disappeared.

Anyone care to tell me how soap dropper became such a vogue part of NSBB lexicon?

Oh wow, I thought it got quiet around here. That explains a lot of it. when did he stop posting?

[E.J.]

BB mentioning that Jones should have taken some more pitches last night against Lidge. Good for him.

I thought he changed his name to become that Ohmaflopalus guy, or whatever his name is.

because f-apostrophe-n gets changed by the word filter as

I'm a trendsetter.

I would imagine it's a word filter thing.

Awesome. Word censor man (or woman) has a great sense of humor.
