8/27 Nationals (Martin) vs. Cubs (Wells) 1:20 CT, WGN

[Prizefight]

What is it about this team/game that you can convince/fool yourself and feel hopeful in the most dire situations? Ugh

[illiniguy]

"You dead! You dead!"

 

Haha.

Good call

[UMFan83]

Who wants to bet there is someone else playing 1B for the Cubs when we return?

[Flames24Rulz]

Wow, that was a bad call.

[Keener98]

2nd blown call against us today

[E.J.]

Ha. He was safe. Figures.

[Magdal]

That replay was sickening to watch.

[UMFan83]

Wait the Cubs got screwed on a call that had a profound impact on the game? Unbelievable!

 

Luckiest team in baseball

[UMFan83]

2nd blown call against us today

 

Yeah but the bottom line is you shouldn't need those calls to beat the damn Nationals at home with JD Drew on the mound or whoever it is

[KBF]

This could be huge. Win this one and we're right back in the mix.

[illiniguy]

Good lord that call was just awful.

[laurens]

Good lord that call was just awful.

 

So, did the throw beat the runner?

[illiniguy]

Good lord that call was just awful.

 

So, did the throw beat the runner?

Kinda, but he didn't tag him with the ball in the glove. The ball was in his other hand then he tagged him with the empty glove. Awful.

[KBF]

Cards now trailing.

 

I'm telling you, this is a huge game. Cut their lead to 8, get on a winning streak and see what happens.

 

It ain't over yet.

[BCVM22]

Ugh. They're going to lose by a run they should have had and Mike MacDougal is going to buzzsaw through them in the 9th.

[KBF]

Three more outs left. I'm not giving up.

[illiniguy]

Cards lost.

[Sammys Boombox]

Astros win!

[KBF]

Cards lose. Come on, Cubs, make them pay.

[Sammys Boombox]

I'm eyeing being only 6.5 games behind Colorado after today! Go Cubs!

[UMFan83]

LETS GO CUBS THE WILD CARD IS IN OUR GRASPS!!! JUST GOTTA EARN IT! YOU CAN DO IT!!!

 

(hows that?)

[KBF]

Here we go.....

[Prizefight]

Here we go.....

 

Alright I'll have some of your Kool Aid.

 

 

COME ON CUBS!! Keep the 9-1 homestand in sight!!

[Guancous]

Three more outs left. I'm not giving up.

 

You are a stronger man than I. In a related note, this will bethe first time I'm prepared for my fantasy football draft since 2006.

[Sammys Boombox]

Spark. Plug.
