Everyone ready for the season? Are you ready to dominate? Be dominated? Ready to be on the winning end of a blowout? The losing end? Are you ready for the adrenaline of trailing all game only to come back and win late? The despair of leading all game only to lose it in the 9th? Are you ready to lose games we should have won? Win games we should have lost? Are you ready for the singles, the doubles, the triples, the homers? The stolen bases, the forceouts, the pickoffs, the putouts? The strikeouts, the walks, the balks, the hits? The exhilaration, the disappointment, the screaming, the silence? Are you ready?

 

Sigh :(

 

But seriously, have a good year guys. Stay healthy. And it should be a 4 team race for the division this year.

It would be pretty awesome if the top 4 teams in the division were all within about 4 games of each other in late August.

I have waited all winter for this day and they are doing a special on [expletive] hot dogs in the pre-game coverage!?! How about some player/coaches interviews, offseason recap, insight on the team or some Ron Santo stuff.

[mookie]

I feel like I am smoking crack. I thought Bob was a manager somewhere.

I feel like I am smoking crack. I thought Bob was a manager somewhere.

I don't even think he was a candidate or got interviewed anywhere in the offseason. I think there was some brief connections between him and Milwaukee but nothing serious.

I believe the Brewers were interested at some point.

No WGN in this hotel in Texas. WTF? Anyone got a stream?

[ELCABALLO45]

Look at those uniforms.

[Sammy Sofa]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Is it looking like it's going to start on time?

[Sammy Sofa]

Heck yes. Edited April 1, 2011 by Sammy Sofa

Yup, that's what Len just said.

[Sammy Sofa]

OH GOD, THEY LOVE COLVIN SO.

.... that guy in section 113 with the cool hat, Jim Deshanty!

Stupid cable company still doesn't have WGN in HD. I haven't looked at my baseball package yet, but it better be in HD this year or I'm randomly yelling at someone over there.

Wood getting a huge standing ovation.

[Cubswin11]

Did Baker really have a hoody under his jersey??? And way to be ready to come out Shark, great start to the season!

[ELCABALLO45]

Wells is like "Where is my standing ovation?"

[Guest]

Wood getting a huge standing ovation.

 

That was very cool. Turned the game on just in time.

[Sammy Sofa]

Surprisingly loud ovation for Marshall.

And a long pause before they said the next player to let the fans cheer him.

Yeah, Wells had to be the guy thrown under the bus by following Kerry.

[erik316wttn]

Welcome home, Kerry!
