We're still playing Murphy at second in the 9th? This is where Russell being a terrible human really stings.

 

Zobrist needs to come in for the 9th.

I love how Murphy randomly becomes one of the best hitters in baseball for 2.5 years and then comes to the Cubs and hits like he did the rest of his career. What is it about being a Chicago Cub that makes you suck at hitting

So, I had a LONG day today and came to this thread to see how the Cubs were doing. Looked like doom and gloom so I was happily surprised to see them with a 2 run lead with only an inning to go. Let me present my day so we can all maybe get a grip on stuff.

 

Day started out just fine, but on the way to work I ran over some kind of industrial sized tack. Tire held it together until I got to work. Once I got to work, I found out the project i spent the last 8 months working on won't amount to anything since my client filed for bankruptcy and stiffed me. Then my wife calls to say that her best friend's husband is going off the rails and won't leave the house, so she and her two kids might temporarily move into my basement. Managed to get the tire changed before parent-teacher conferences, but the principal sent a curt email to my wife about the PTA trying to make class sizes smaller, and combining that with her friend's situation and the reveal that my daughter is not so great at phonics at the present time (she is 5), my wife spent half of the conference and most of the night crying. Then, the parent of the next kid due up turned out to be an old co-worker of mine. I hadn't seen him in five years. ...he just got laid off earlier that day! Made for an awkward reunion.

 

So anyhow, I think yall should chill out a bit.

AND....on top of all of that....the Cubs suck.

I feel like any other team a defender would be right where the ball went

 

So now they have the 2Bman shaded over to the middle, right where the last ball went. Nice job, whoever is in charge of that.

That sucks and everything, but the Cubs are busy blowing the horsefeathering division.

 

Just kidding. Well not really, but overall, just kidding. Tomorrow will be better. Maybe not for the Cubs, but for you. Promise.
