The cheese in Little Ceasar's pizza commercial looks like nacho cheese sauce.

 

Since I'm not Da Bum, that's disgusting.

 

It's such terrible pizza, but $5 and no waiting.

 

the pizza sucks but crazy bread is straight from heaven

 

Fact. And damn Soler is strong.

 

I would eat it 100 times out of 100 if forced to choose between it and Imo's.

Might be time to get some private military dudes and start smuggling more guys out of Cuba.

Jorge Soler RBI rouble!

[Guest]

anything related to st louis

 

 

it must suck to live there lol

[CubInOK]

I figured it would be 1-0 Cubs after the 2nd with a Soler RBI double. I was close.

Hey now, I just complimented the city this morning in another thread. There are certain things that are awful, specifically the Cradinals fans and the pizza.

The Hill is overrated

yeah thats why you've seen me in the minor league game threads more than these game threads the last 3 years

 

i check the minor league boxes. i don't see the highlights or check spray charts.

One guy who has defected is 19, so the biggest problem is the stupid CBA. Cubs couldn't sign him until 7/2/15.

[RammyFanny]

Did Soler look a little gimpy going to the dugout? Maybe I am paranoid.

I swear I saw him wince when he crossed home.

Cubs need an assist from the State Department for that one.

[Guest]

he always winces when he crosses home, pay more attention to the minors

at the very least his gait looks goofy as hell

 

I wonder if this is what they were trying to "program" out of him or if it's got something to do with what they're programming in

[ScrubMD]

You gonna be ok?

Agreed. There are a ton of places to get great food around the city, but I've been to the Hill probably 3 times and not been terribly impressed. Amighetti's and Adriana's both have great sandwiches though. Beer here is pretty fantastic too.

So far so good. His (Yoan Moncada) current whereabouts are unknown. He still needs to establish residency somewhere and then get cleared by the US government.

no, i'm obviously irate

[Guest]

Damn it all, Aramis.

[Guest]

at least javy has had fewer of those flailing at insanely bad pitch ABs lately

 

 

baby steps (seriously)

[Burt Macklin, FBI]

man nice play Aramis

Highlights are for the lazy. I drove up with a few friends too see Kane County earlier in the year and was streaming the Iowa game from my phone during the KC game. Apparently there were a few other die hards there and we had a few small huddles to watch Bryant AB's while observing Schwarber dongs out of the peripheral.

[PrimeTime]

Damnit. Jammed him

[Brian]

I shudder to think what would have happened if you witnessed a KB and Schwarber dong at the same time
