Why the hell did I just waste the last three hours on this garbage team? Screw this crap, I'm going and getting drunk.

[sweetpeteman]

this game made me sick. what a horrible game by the Cubs. Maybe tomorrow they won't suck.

See how good a squeeze play works, Dusty?

[satxcubfan]

I just had a sneaking suspicion that they'd try to pull it off... and Dusty didn't even see it coming.. jerk!

[USSoccer]

There's the difference between our teams right there. Execution. I've never seen Dusty try a squeeze play, and would it have hurt anything tonight? Once? With Hairston at 3rd and Walker up??

 

That's why we suck. Lack of execution.

 

And it looked like Aramis was ripping Hollandsworth there for something.

[TruffleShuffle]

And now the board has exploded

[Roast]

You have no idea how mad I am. My cubs hat just took a trip across the room, and said hello to the wall.

 

Dusty should be fired for this game alone. GOOD [expletive] GOD!!!!!!!

 

THIS AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGG. I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY, I"M SO PISSED!

[ltb]

And it looked like Aramis was ripping Hollandsworth there for something.

 

hope so.

he deserves it.

That's the idea, you dont see it coming. They have pulled this move before however. I wish we had gotten some of those runners LOB.

[otis89]

Completely sad that Z continues to absolutely own the Cards at Busch and the Cubs fail to take advantage of it. I need to break something. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

Why exactly is Hollansdworth get over 75% of the starts, he can't hit and now his "specialty" fielding, he pooches. I'm sorry but Burnitz had just a couple of innings earlier made a much harder catch, but Holla is resigned to playing it off the wall and messing it up at that.

Well, it's pretty sad when a fan, such as myself and the announcers suspect it could be coming, but a overpaid manager like Crusty cannot. Not to mention, frustrating as hell too!

Oh I hear ya! The problem was the triple because they were going to try the squeeze even if Eck is walked. We should have executed on the bases. 11 LOB is way too many.

[Blueheart05]

The suicide squeeze can't be defended if executed correctly.

If Murton makes the same play he'd never see the field again.

As am I.

 

 

 

Just as soon as I finish work in 2 hours.

[Omar]

Whens the next topic going to be posted?! I have to post my match-ups before my late night lineup (Conan, Stern etc) starts or I'll be forced to post them tomorrow.

[indifferent]

Great game, guys! So far the games between Cubs/Cards have really respected the rivalry. Some great baseball. Looking forward to tomorrow's game.
