BUT garland for karchner sickens me....garland of the last 3 years for karchner sickens me.

willis bothers me simply because i have heard that the marlins didn't even want willis but the cubs threw him in.

 

Agreed, but I don't know about the throw in comment, I've never heard that and it sounds like a monday morning qb comment some talk radio guy would throw out there.

Strikeout

[neely crenshaw]

i don't think corey is done. however he needs to be our 3rd best offensive ofer not the guy we depend on to do it all! he plays d. he is very cheap at 500,000. unless someone really gives us something special why trade for a b level prospect? heck if he hit .250, stole bases,hit some hrs and played d there would be no problem. let him hit 7th and just play.

[J.R.]

Hawk shut up!!

 

He doesn't know how to.

 

"Cubs fans watching trying to get on the bandwagon. The Bandwagon is full! Get off!" oh shut up.. Yea its full.. full of crap..

 

Have the White Sox had a sellout at the Cell this year?

 

The Cubs games, Opening Day and a couple of half-price Mondays. That's it.

basically, Matt Murton is a god and the BP still sucks. That's about all you need to know.

More good news.... ATL won 2-1 and STL is up 2-0

[neely crenshaw]

sorry nsbb has him at .5 mil

[E.J.]

BBTN crew just said the tarp is coming off the field. I guess they're gonna try to finish this game.

Crap, and give our pen a chance to blow it?

I've been watching the whole show, I never heard them say that. I thought they actually said the game would be called.

The Braves winning is good for us?

[sethuel1]

Seriously, how many times can someone say the same damn thing? I can't imagine how insipid this broadcast would be if Buehrle was pitching.

sarcasm. :wink:

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I just got the baby to sleep...and I'm not reading through the entire game thread...

 

But.... I just have one thing to say. This better have earned Murton another start.

 

And thanks DJAXX for helping me get that Murton jersey.

 

Did you wear it today or is it in a frame already?

 

I haven't framed it yet. I tried it on and it completely swallowed me. I was thinking about wearing it to the games in St. Louis, but it's too big. I'm hoping to at least see Matt and tell him how much I appreciate it. Plus, I need to add his sig to my team ball.

 

Geez. Where's my jersey DJAXX??? :wink:

 

Vance, remember there's another auction later this month!

 

Willis, forward me the cash and I'll hook you up as well!

 

Yeah....but they keep promoting all my favorites!

It was a sort of off comment after they showed the highlights for the game. The guy who's not Harold Reynolds or Buster Olney said something like, "and it looks like the tarp is actually coming off." Buster Olney then said something like, "are you sure the hurricane didn't blow it off."
