Stop blaming the umps! This team has crapped it's pants in every facet of the game in the playoffs the last 2 years.

When 2 runs score with 3 outs having already been made, yes, we're going to get pissed at the umps.

 

Get pissed at the crap offense, not the umps. There was no concrete evidence that the tag was applied before he got to the bag.

 

Meanwhile, Edmonds and Derosa with worm killers in the infield. This team is choking, period!

I got my hopes up.

 

I had to run here, in the rain, and what do I find? Some idiot is watching Knocked Up, so I have to wait until it's over. Thankfully I missed the Harden slip up. But still...

 

I got my hopes up.

 

The stupid Cubs. I know it's not over, but it practically is. 2-0 might as well be 20-0.

 

Once again, I got my hopes up, and the Cubs, being the Cubs, will fail. Son of a...

while this is true, the umps arent helping and there is nothing wrong with pointing that out.....

 

Martin was safe on that play

 

I'm not sure what you were watching.

 

I only saw one replay but I thought I saw Martin's hand get in

And the guy with the 2.nothing ERA is getting whacked around.

 

No curse here, none at all.

 

(yeah, yeah, umps and all. He still gave up the hits).

 

seriously, you believe in a curse?

 

I believe in an organizational effect of some kind that causes the Cubs to play worse in the playoffs. Getting the wrong types of players, the field, the day games, the pressure? I don't know, but it's something.

 

We're up to being outscored 56-18 in the last 9 playoff games.

 

what were they in the 9 before that

Well the ball beat him. The Cubs continue to be the only team in the majors that doesn't consistently get that call. And he was out.

 

The thing that sucks about this is that no one outside of us will remember how good this team was for six months if we lose this game or series. They'll just remember the crappy October games

I hate Ronny Cedeno, but he needs to be our SS next year. Ryan Theriot is just plain not good at anything except hitting singles. And that is not good enough.

That bastard was out. F that Ump!

 

Vance, you know better

 

he does know better, but he was right....

 

I'm not talking about the ump's call, I'm talking about Vance's language. He was wrong.

 

just to raise a point, nccub made a thread in rants called "F FOX". I'm not sure i see a difference

someone needs to fire up this team

 

If you can't fire up yourself in a do or die situation in the playoffs...You deserve to die.

You don't know that though. You only know the Cubs get bad calls because you watch all the Cubs games. I'm sure if you watched 162 Royals games, you could say the same thing that they're the only team in baseball that doesn't get calls to go their way either.

I won't remember. Actually, I will, but I'll only think of the disappointing last 3-5 games in October. I'm just irrational like that, but it's hard to think of the good things in the regular season when the team craps the bed like this in the postseason.
