04/23 DB Reds (Harang) @ Cubs (Zambrano) 01:20 CDT - CSN

[Fred Hornkohl]

Dickerson singled to center field , Hernandez & Taveras scored

[killthegoat06]

Good thing we DFA'd Vizcaino.

[nick23]

One of those days.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Votto blooped a single to center field , Dickerson to third

[JimSorgi]

This game sucks.

[illiniguy]

Good thing we DFA'd Vizcaino.

Hendry is awful at his job. Go play fantasy baseball. Set the rules up where everyone else in your league has to stay under 60 bucks in an auction. You get to spend 120. I wonder if you could beat the other players?

[Flames24Rulz]

this team is garbage, but im still optimistic about the bears and bulls and hawks this year. its bittersweet, but very nice.

 

It's April 23. I love how you pile on the Cubs but yet say you're optimistic about a team that finished 41-41 in the regular season, a team that struggled in its two playoffs wins and played poorly for five of the six periods on the road, and a team that still has no WR's and an aging defense. I guess I better put logic away though since I am in a game thread.

Hey, just because the Packers suck doesn't mean you can take it out on everybody else.

this team is garbage, but im still optimistic about the bears and bulls and hawks this year. its bittersweet, but very nice.

 

It's April 23. I love how you pile on the Cubs but yet say you're optimistic about a team that finished 41-41 in the regular season, a team that struggled in its two playoffs wins and played poorly for five of the six periods on the road, and a team that still has no WR's and an aging defense. I guess I better put logic away though since I am in a game thread.

 

Hey, just because the Packers suck doesn't mean you can take it out on everybody else.

 

I love the Bulls and Blackhawks and I ragged on them too. I was just proving a point that he shouldn't be overreacting because of two games in April.

 

And yes, I realize we suck :(
