7/20 Cubs (Wood) @ Reds (Harang), 6:10pm CSN

[CubmanPi]

Cubs haven't been losing too much lately. Nice to see them take care of business against the bottom feeders. Hopefully the new Wood is a consistent Wood.

Good teams like the Yankees win 8 of 9 all the time. Win 18 of 20 and then I'll be impressed. Losers.

 

You all suck, and I bet you don't get out of Cincinatti with anything more than a spilt.

Go CUBS !!

[Flames24Rulz]

CUBS are 10-4 when the temperature is 85 degree or above :wink:

 

They are like Brett Farve when its below freezing!

 

UNSTOPABLE.

 

But we still suck.

 

unfortunately, he's sucked in his last few cold weather starts...the regular season game VS Jacksonville came to mind (the one where Robert Ferguson got clotheslined) and of course the playoff loss to the Queens. :(

 

anyway, im going to SIU for open house this weekend and it's probably going to be close to the 100's there too. doesn't bother me though, i love hot weather :D

[gerby23]

Upcoming forecast:

 

In Cincinnati:

Wednesday - 93 degrees

Thursday - 89 degrees

 

In St. Louis:

Friday - 100 degrees

Saturday - 97 degrees

Sunday - 100 degrees

 

In Chicago:

Monday - 95 degrees

Tuesday - 91 degrees

 

Thankfully the Wednesday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday games are at night, but now might not be a bad time to have 12 pitchers.

As a Cub from TX, (all over) I know hot. I have been living in Northwest Arkansas now for about a year, and 90 degrees here is as bad as 100 or so down there. Guessing St. Louis is around the same.

As I write this, I notice that my last home in TX-79852-was 101 today, and that was low. I miss TX, but sometimes, not so much.

You suck, you sucky Cubs!
