Let's not forget one of those runs scored because Augie went out of the base line.

Lets also not forget how he made neifi perez look like mickey mantle the years he pplayed for us. this series against us 3-5.

[ElectricJ]

I'm done. This team gives me a heart attack and I'm only 20.

 

Woah. Try a little aspirin & stay off the fatty foods. :P

[windycityfan]

The good thing about this....There is no ball through the legs or botched double plays in a close series. Just ownage.

 

Well said.

[TMan92]

All the things that held us back from winning the division by a mile will send us home early this postseason. Inconsistant hitting and pitching and the inability to play not that great teams well.

 

It took a major choke job by Milwaukee for us to win this division. We got swept by Florida in the last week of the season for Christ's sake. I was amazed that we were favored in this series.

This is quite possibly one of the worst weeks of my life.

This is actually the worst day of my life not involving death/deadly illness

 

Game 7. 2003. Game 5, 1984.

I thought game 6 was way worse.

 

Me too. The game 7 loss was totally expected after the game 6 disaster.

 

Yes.

hey fred, what is the cubs records when they are down by 4 or more runs... i need a mental cigarette burn to my face

[CDBears1259]

Clearly last night could have ended up the same way regardless of pulling Z, but knowing a soft-tossing left was due up in Game 2, Lou should have never done it. Especially if he's ever watched his team against a lefty.

[Careless]

i have tickets to game 4, and all of the nlcs games. if i dont go to one game im going to be very very angry.

 

Have your gf/wife/significant other remove all weapons from your household NOW.

 

the worst part is that shes sleeping on me right now, so i cant yell...and cant use 2 hands to type

An understanding woman would give you an exemption for this sort of circumstance. Of course, she'd probably be a lesbian.

Game 7. 2003. Game 5, 1984.

I thought game 6 was way worse.

 

Nothing will ever top Game 6. EVER. That was pure evil.

 

Game 6 was crappy. But Game 7 on principle alone is much more. Culmination of the collapse. Besides, I really thought that the Kerry Wood 3 run shot would be the shot in the arm to win that series. And to have Bako at the plate to end the series made it that much more shitty. I cried that night, that's how [expletive] Game 7 was.

[Careless]

wow, that was a nice throw. wtf?

[Outshined_One]

WTF?!

Yes.

It was as if after gonzalez booted that ball everyone woke up and said, oh crap we are the cubs.

[The Voice of Reason]

In other news . . .

 

Anybody have Travis Henry on their fantasy team?

 

Probably going to be suspended for a year due to testing postive for pot.

[Guest]

How the heck did you not get to second?

 

Thanks for showing up Soriano.

[DivineBovine]

How is he not at 2B on that?

[nilodnayr]

Why are we bringing a rookie into this game. I know it is over, but WTF Lou?

long man

 

Marquis?

 

marquis' last outing?

[UMFan83]

Welcome to the NLDS Alfonso

[CubbyBanksWrigley]

Gah, Soriano should have had a double...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano singled to left field

[CDBears1259]

Alf should be on 2nd, I think? And for crying out loud, he's fine.

[ElectricJ]

Single off the wall by Sori. Missed a homer by 3 feet & means we DEFINITELY won't score this inning.

[TruffleShuffle]

nice hustle you a-hole, guess he's saving his energy for the golf outing on sunday

[moorecg]

Nice single. GIDP and a K and we're back to normal

[BCVM22]

A 370 foot single. Only Sori.
