6/12 - Twins (Slowey) @ Cubs (Wells) 1:20 WGN

[Little Slide Rooter]

I really wish this game was on CSN so we could get Lous post game live. Should be entertaining I bet

 

What's entertaining about today? We finally scored at least a few runs, and the pitching finally gave up a few today. Both were bound to happen eventually, but of course in typical Cub fashion they happened in the same game. I would have been more interested in seeing his comments if we lost another 2-1 extra innings game today.

 

um...yeah...we didnt um.....play very good baseball today. uh....the kid....um Wells had a bad start so....um.....yeah........the team isnt....um....isnt....theyre not playing very good baseball lately.

"Well...we finally scored a couple of runs today, and then...our pitching staff picked a bad day to finally have a poor game. It's just the way things are going for us right now, what can I say? We're gonna try to build on today's offensive performance after the 5th inning today and try to get em tomorrow."

 

His opening statement to the press conference will probably sound like that.

 

The thing is though, 3 runs does not a good offensive performance make.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I'm pretty certain Kosuke will never get a hit in the major leagues again. What a joke he is.

 

In fact, this organization is just massive, massive pile of FAIL. It's simply impossible to watch this team without wanting to throw a brick right thru the t.v or slash your wrists open. I'm serious.

I just wish we would luck into one. So I could stop watching them.

 

You know Kosuke will hit again. You just have to be patient with him. Next May isnt too far away.

4 runs, and I agree, but 4 runs would have won 9 of the Cubs last 13 losses. Lou has been way too rational this year...he will search for a silver lining and say that he hopes we can build on the offensive performance today.

[Keener98]

6 hits in 9 innings is terrible

[RedFlash]

Gotta tip your hat, dude.

[Arnold Layne]

Hey guys, try to remember that this team won 97 games last year. Let's just wait until things fall into place, on the lucky side of the coin. It's bound to happen if we are patient.

Should we just start to assume that you're going to say something like this after every loss?

[UMFan83]

Bradley's postgame comments were weird. Said something about having a hard time tracking the ball in the sun, and then he just looked towards the crowd and was still seeing "purple and green clovers" and just threw the ball into the stands. Then he realized something was wrong by the crowds reaction. He finished by saying that his heart was in the right place (giving a souvenir to a fan) he just made a mistake.

This is not last year's team. This team resembles last year's team about as much as an orange resembles a Ferarri.

What the hell is this guy talking about??

Sounds like he was blazed.

[BCVM22]

Being surrounded by Twins fans (they were 30-40% of the attendance today; how the hell does that happen?) made a great game even better. Nothing like a thunderous "LET'S GO MAUER" chant echoing around the upper deck.

 

Ugh. Terrible game.

The joys of interleague play. The only time you will ever feel like there are too many visiting fans at a game at Wrigley are Cardinals games, and games against AL teams. Sometimes Brewers games nowadays. They see the @ Cubs on the schedule back in February and plan a weekend trip to Chicago to see their team play at Wrigley. It happened last year when the Cubs played the Orioles. When the National Anthem was playing, whenever they say "O say..." all the Orioles fans said "O" in unison to match the word in the song. I guess its some dumb Orioles tradition, but when they did it, it was loud and noticable.

[BCVM22]

Being surrounded by Minnesota fans was unpleasant (you betcha). Being surrounded by Orioles fans sounds like orange and black purgatory.

They're both baseball teams, its just that one was good and ones bad.

either that or someone was eating a bowl of lucky charms.

I forgot Aaron Miles was on the team last year.

Bradley just passed Z for my favorite player of all time.

It's never gonna happen.

Certainly not this year, or next, or probably 2011. It'll be a while till we have the financial flexibility to make the moves necessary to win it all again.

 

2013 according to Back to the Future II.

Good God, I had forgotten about that too. I was at all three games of that series and it was possibly one of the most disrespectful things I've ever seen. I wanted to punch anything orange and black that whole week.
