O-W-N-E-D!

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.

 

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 ******. I cried that night, that's how [expletive] Game 7 was.

 

Please don't swear. Thank you.

This is like a bad soap opera.

I wish Theriot would have eaten his Wheaties today.

 

I think he did. That's why he got it that far. Otherwise it would have dropped for a single.

Good point. :x :cry:

 

If only the roof was open.

This is like a bad soap opera.

 

Without the hot chicks.

Derrek Lee is lucky he doesn't play for the Yankees because he actually deserves the ARod treatment for his postseason play.

 

Of course he smoked a ball in Game 6 when he played with the Marlins.

 

That makes it all the more frustrating.

[vj9999]

We should pay our big guys in Schrute bucks

Maybe Rally Boobs has a part in this soap opera? Too early for her apperance?

I have never liked him because of that.

What happened to Good Lou? He has been making some real bad decisions all NLDS, and is going to end up costing the Cubs a chance.

[Smack]

Well, at least F1 practice in China begins in 2 hours. I should stick to racing.

[Little Slide Rooter]

The Cubs are really proving that they just dont belong here. Just go home and count your god damn money and dont show your faces until April.

 

At least the Brewers would have put up some runs against these guys before falling apart in the late innings.

[nilodnayr]

If the D'backs win, do you think we'll hire Mike Rizzo and get a good farm system? This is what we have to hope for at this point.

[TruffleShuffle]

i've just put the flyers on the HD big screen and relegated the cubs to the muted TV on top of my cabinet.

[abuck1220]

lee came in sporting a sweet .289 career postseason SLG.

[Guest]

Ted Lilly DRIVEN from the mound.

[gruberted]

The cubs had a pitcher tonight?

 

Thought it was the batting practice coach?

sort of, but when your "good" hitters don't show up you're not going to win regardless of what the manager does

I think we might be the only team in the playoffs he starts for. At least in the NL.

The worst thing about it is that with the Payroll, we are stuck with this same team for another 3-4 years.

My friends all say i'm too negative a NY or philly type fan, how can you support and praise a crock of crap like these guys?? i wish the brewers would of taken the division far less painfull. On a side note the hawks started with a pathetic loss tonight ah chicago sports you gotta love it!!!!!!

[cbbryan]

I really thought Lilly would at least keep us in this game. Bats need to wake up and the bullpen better be sharp.

[moorecg]

Good a lead off walk...that's what we need
