5/10 Snakes (Scherzer) @ Cubs(Dempster) 2:40PM Fox

[Schwarber Fan]

Yes, David

[beersoakedivy]

I wonder how many times they'll mention the 2007 NLDS today.

 

Or that it has been one hundred years...I'm getting sick of hearing that over and over again

I'm prepared for another afternoon of goats and Steve Bartman. I'm also vaguely willing to put money down on them mentioning Leon Durham.

 

The question is whether they talk about the stories about the Cubs throwing the World Series against the Boston Red Sox back in 1918. That'll be fun.

[Outshined_One]

Oh thank God, no Joe Buck and Tim McCarver. I might not have to mute this game.

[CubsGM]

Well at least we don't have to worry about being no-hit today.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I feel weird enjoying a softball game, but ESPN is showing Team USA get dominated by a Virginia Tech pitcher and possibly heading to their first exhibition loss in 185 games dating back to 1996.

I will be unable to watch the game due to the Cards game being on here. The commentary will be predictable I'm sure.

It's taped, should I tell you what happens?

Yes, because I'm not going to watch it once the Cubs game starts.

It will all be mentioned together.

 

-You know it has been 100 years since the Cubs last world series championship.

-Well, they had a shot last year, but were swept out of the NLDS by these Arizona Diamondbacks

-Their best shot at ending the curse was 2003, when they were 5 outs away from winning the NLCS before the Bartman incident

-Hey there's a foul ball right near where Bartman was sitting.

-There's another pitch fouled off near the radio booth where Ron Santo is the color man

-You know he was on that 1969 Cubs team that was caught from behind by the New York Mets in September

-He was also in the on-deck circle that season when a black cat circled him

-This curse believed to have started when a guy wasn't allowed to bring his goat to a game and cursed the Cubs to never winning another world series

-Babe Ruth may or may not have called his shot in this very park years ago.

-These fans have really suffered, the cubs are lovable losers

[Rob]

God help me, I still love the ninja thing...

[CubsGM]

Dempster :rotfl:

She throws a no-no and VT wins 1-0.

[bcruise]

So how is Demp going to introduce the Cubs lineup today?

[Careless]

Am I hallucinating, or did Dempster say "if I wasn't a pitcher, I'd have been a ninja" just now

That pitcher is not bad looking...Angela Tincher I think is her name

[Outshined_One]

Anyone want pbp?

[Outshined_One]

Ojeda grounds out, 3-1.

That pretty much covers it. I won't be missing anything.

[Outshined_One]

Foul to the left field corner...no mention of Steve Bartman.

[Outshined_One]

Drew goes down swinging.

 

2 out.

[inari]

Jeeze, nice work Demp.

[Flames24Rulz]

Good start for Dempster.

[Outshined_One]

Chris Young strikes out looking on a nice fastball after a steady diet of sliders.

 

End of 1, score is 0-0.

[cubbyvirus00]

Demp off to a great start
