Let us give thanks.

[Fred Hornkohl]

What do we do now ???

[Fast Freddie Bynum]

Starting to think we are unstoppable.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS didn't score 11 runs in their last 5 games combined. :scratch:

[CubmanPi]

Brace ourselves for a 15-game winning streak?

This would be appropriate considering you are the on deck game thread starter, no?

Check the Fecal standings and smile because the Twins won too.

Man, I went from being furious at Castro to adoring him in about 2.6 seconds.

Same. Sort of. I was still more frustrated at him flailing at the first two pitches than I was happy about the HR.

[Smack]

Ah, what the hell, it's been two weeks.

I don't suppose the answer to the this question could be play the Padres at Wrigley and the wind howling out with Jeff Suppan on the mound for them for the next 114 games, could it?

[erik316wttn]

They won!

 

Are they allowed to do that?

[Little Slide Rooter]

They won!

 

Are they allowed to do that?

 

As long as they don't make a habit out of it.

I'm a loser because I'm more excited that Castro and Soriano (PLEASE someone take him for all that is good) had very strong performances.

Nah. I'm pretty much viewing these guys like the farm teams. The end result is far less important to me than the individual performances of the relevant players.

Agreed. It's why I have far more interest in this team than last years Cubs who I barely followed. Last years team only had 1-2 player worth following.

By this time last year, I cared about 1 thing only: the offseason plans.

[El Duderino]

At this time last year weren't there reports that Hendry probably wasn't going to be fired? Good times.

[Little Slide Rooter]

True, but there was already talk about every available free agent such as Fielder, Pujols, Darvish, and Wilson. We were going to be back on top baby.
