Remember when we didn't suck?

 

No, I can't say that I do.

So you don't remember when we had the best record in baseball a few weeks ago? Did you have massive head trauma between then and now?

Fluke. Minor blip on our long record of incompetence.

It seems as though a similar thread arises after every loss. May as well just sticky one to the top so everyone can vent together.

 

Anyway, all of us know that this team will come out of whatevr it is they are in. Better now than August and September. Right now, there is little doubt in mymind that The Brewers and/or Cardinals will catch us in the standing sooner than later, The Cobs just have to make sure that they dont run too far. And as Ive said numerous times in the past, while we are in an awful funk, both The Cards and Brewers are not slump proof and will hit their own little rough patches.

 

But still, knock yourselves out and press away

Getting Soriano back is really going to help us, but the three black holes in the lineup right now are inexcusable. Ramirez, Lee, and Soto I'm looking at you.

 

The problem could solve its self if Soriano wouldnt be such a about it and bat in the heart of the lineup.

I think getting back home on Thursday is going to help a lot as well. As Bob and Len said last night a lot of guys didn't get the ASB off and were flying all over the country. Everyone needs to relax right now, the team is pressing, the fans are pressing, at this point anything positive will be a lift. I keep telling myself to wait until next week, before hitting the red button. If we look flat in the Florida and Milwaukee series then I will start to worry about this team long term, but until then there is no reason to start declaring the team broken.

It can't hurt, but I'd feel a lot better about it if we weren't playing our biggest nemesis, the Florida Marlins.

This team is more than broken on the road. It's shattered. That needs to change, and it needs to change now.

Also, "I" still do not suck so I take issue with your use of "we".

 

I have it on good authority that you've started to suck a little.

It would make the lineup better in general.

 

Theriot

Fontenot vs. RHP/Johnson vs. LHP

Lee

Soriano

Ramirez

Fukudome

Soto

Edmonds vs. RHP/DeRosa vs. LHP

Pitcher

 

That lineup would produce ridiculous amounts of runs, especually when Lee, Ramirez, and Soto decide to play again

I've noticed that I'm sucking too much lately too. I need to get it in gear, and quickly.

Every time I watch one of these crapfests that they call Cubs games to the bitter end, I feel I suck just a little bit more.

Ditto.

Im fairly confident that we'll make the playoffs one way or another, but it will be a rocky road, and we wont coast as we once thought we would. However, once we get there, I feel that we can dominate. Zambrano and Harden can hang with any 1-2 in the league, and not too many NL teams have a 3-4 that can answer to Dempster and Lilly. We just have to hope that we can get homfield advantage for the 2 NL series'.
