6/2 Super Cubs (Z!) @ Padres (Baek) 9:05 pm CSN/WGN Radio

[jyoung55]

I just realized that the Brewers have a 3 game set against the DBacks this week. The only 2 starters that they don't face in the series: Brandon Webb and Dan Haren. WTH?

 

 

Brewers.

 

Meh.

 

 

I think he means that team with a 120-119 Pythagorean record over the last two seasons, including 27-30 this season.

 

And yet, they have enough talent and resources to make a run. Who said that their talent was playing at full potential the last season and a half.

 

I think your unhealthy angst towards anything Wisconsin is blinding you into worrying about the Brewers a little too much.

erik316wttn you can have sex with my girlfriend any time.

 

I wonder what the most wins are by an NSBB poster for Game Threads in a season are?

 

Go Z. I expect a great outing tonight.

 

Fred and erik have 7 this year.

 

2007 brought us UMFan with 8 and Davhern, Southpaw and Soccer10k with 7

 

In 2006, the leader was apparently me...with 4. Though we obviously quit on the season. :oops:

 

Looks like the most in 2005 was 5 (Roast, CT, Tree and bukie).

 

2004 was the year of Bhogg the Game Thread Pimp.

 

The totals you're looking at for 2006 are only through 08 Aug of that year. Everybody did quit on the season. Although I started nearly all the game threads after that point..... I don't think I beat your total of 4, eh? :wink:

Given how bad that 06 team was, you might have ended up with negative win total that year.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Well I still have a 1.000 winning % because Fred went and jumped the gun on my 3rd game, which we lost. :)

 

2-0

 

Jumped the gun, hell !! You were 5 hours late :twisted:

Heh, I haven't even started a game thread since then. I'm the Mark Prior of NSBB.

And I don't think I've won a game since then..

As we say in the trucking industry...... sleep is highly overrated !! :wink:

What happened to the Mega Cubs?

 

Oh well, just win you pathetic winners.

Haha, thanks, but I don't think my wife would approve.

I hope that's not true. I'm from Wisconsin, and the Cubs are on a 7-game streak. We're not all bad!

 

And just so I'm clear, what is the deadline for starting the game thread before someone else can jump in and start it? I hope it's ok that it might not be up until 330 or so tomorrow if we win tonight.

 

What happened to the Mega Cubs?

 

Oh well, just win you pathetic winners.

 

They'll be the Mega Cubs tomorrow if they win tonight. After that, if they win 2 more, they'll be the Ultra Cubs.

Keep in mind, the Reds are only a game behind the Brewers, yet they dont seem to be registering on anyones radar yet.

I hope Edmonds plays today because I heart Edmonds. Yuck. (I just threw up in my mouth a little).

I hope you don't start the game thread for a while, my man. I'm having way too much fun right now.

 

And yeah.... Edmonds may have to play in that spacious OF. At least he's starting to hit a little bit. He may get me to the point where I don't loathe the very sight of him, but it'll be a while yet.

To be honest, the Cubs miss both Peavy and Young in this series, so.....

. . . and two wins after that makes them the MECHA-CUBS!

I was thinking "Hyper Cubs", but you know, if they get to 12 in a row I'll do that.

Because of injury, not because the 3 game series happens to roll over the wrong part of the rotation.

 

But it is a valid point.

We do, however, face Maddux, who has been very good at PetCo this year.

[BigbadB]

Looks like I might be going to all three games, afterall. If I make it to tonight's game, I'll be in heaven. Super excellent seats. Once the wife confirms we can go, I'll fill you in so can all look for us when left handed hitters are at the plate.

 

Vance will be at tonight's game, so we will have to meet up with him at some point.

 

She better give the okay. Carlos on the mound, 5th to 7th row seats right behind the Padres dugout. This is the Cubs year!

 

Best part is I'll probably only have to pay for my ticket for tomorrow's game where I'm replacing someone who can't go. The other one's are free. And since I just paid $4.23 a gallon for gas today, I like it.
