6/8 Cubs (Marquis) @ Dodgers (Penny), 7:05 PM, ESPN

[BigSlick]

Why can't we swear on this board

 

I really wish we could

 

Marquis keeps his promise, we aren't allowed a lead

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 22-3 when they allow fewer than 4 runs.... 17-21 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BigSlick]

Another predictable point, Pierre is a Cubs killer and completely blew as a Cub

 

Andrew Jackson was only 10 in 1776....just sayin.

A point that I've known for quite some time

 

Its a quote from FJM

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Can't blame Marquis this inning. More crappy defense leads to the unearned run.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Bad defense cost another season.

 

ftfy

[Roast]

Good job, marquis

I want to be able to swear at least in game threads

[UMFan83]

That .426 OBP looks awesome. I definitely think at this point and time he should be the starting catcher in the AS Game over Soto. McCann too.

Crappy pitching led to Pierre hitting a line drive single up the middle.

He should be able to get out juan for 4. I am still blaming him.

Oh ok. I wasn't trying to be snide or anything, it's just that as a former history teacher I felt the need to point that out.

They don't lose as much as the standings would lead you to believe!

[Outshined_One]

So...Gillette 2 in 1 body wash turns you into the Silver Surfer?

 

Cool.

[chuckywang]

As great as Theriot has been, it's kinda refreshing to not have to see that slow wind up and throw to first from him.

[OleMissCub]

Ugh, I swear I think that Will Ferrell sold his soul to the devil.

In fact when they wrote that I sent them an e-mail and felt like I was being a touch pedantic

Well, singles tend to happen in Baseball. That said, he gets out of the inning easily if not for that horrid throw by Geo. I am not a Marquis fan at all, but that inning is on Geo.

:oops:

 

I know, I was kinda embarrassed as I wrote that.

[illiniguy]

Man that was some washed up talent in that shot. Now back to Geo Soto slumping.

Go back to the play and look closely. The throw was bad, but it bounced off the edge of the grass and bounced away from DeRosa. DeRo would have had that if not for the unlucky bounce.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soto flied out to center field
