  1. alright Cliffy! Do your job Aramis. No ground balls please.
  2. I hate the Marlins. I hate them more than the Cardinals.
  3. somanombricthes. You are killing me lou, killing me.
  4. Their bullpen is horrendus until the closer.
  5. Me either. A little bit of top spin and the score is 5-4. At least he got a hit.
  6. I would have no problem if the good Marquis showed up. That's the thing, we know right away. When he's bad he's bad from inning one and usually lasts only a few. It's been his history for almost three years now. When he's good he has shut down stuff. He just cannot seem to harness his stuff.
  7. If the Cubs get a lead here Lou has to take out Marquis.
  8. Overreact much? You really think 1 run is gonna win this game? You were saying?
  9. When I live in Miami I was listening to Boog Shamby and Len on the radio and in September and in the background I could hear the chant "Less go Jankees, less go Jankees." The Marlins were playing Phillies.
  10. Overreact much? You really think 1 run is gonna win this game? You were saying?
  11. Get him out. When he's crap we know it quick. Get somebody up in the pen Lou. No need to waste time.
  12. I cannot bear to watch, listen, or check in. I will wait until tomorrow to find the score. Maybe
  13. You "might" give up Hill for Santana? I'd give any single player on the team for Johan. Yes, that includes Lee, Ramirez, Soriano and Zambrano. I'd probably add Pie and/or Marshall with anybody but Ramirez. Ok Hill + Pie. Do you think the Cubs have the talent to get him? I really suck at trade proposals.
  14. Unless there's some kind of scenario I'm completely unaware of, the magic number could only go to 2 after tonight. Sorry I thought the magic number was 3. Ok, 2. Cubs do your part.
  15. I posted this in Meph's crazy Barry Bonds thread but it might be better served here I'd like to see the Cubs use their most promising chips to trade for Johan Santana, if he really is available. He doesn't seem too happy in Minnesota. Pie + Marshall + Gallagher. Or whatever it takes besides Hill. I might even trade Hill. Then I'd like to see them go after Andruw Jones for CF. There will be a glut of competent CFers on the market this year. If they do this they don't have to worry about overpaying for aging middle infielders (except for A-Rod, if he's available).
  16. After tonight the magic number could be 1 game. Do your part Cubs.
  17. Momentum http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/GBSSCI/PHYS/CLASS/momentum/u4l1a.html It's a sports analogy to a term in physics. It doesn't exist in the real world except when talking about mass and velocity. It's like saying a dog has a personality or a robot has behavior. When people use the term momentum in sports they are not talking about the same type of momentum in physics. They are talking about several discrete things occurring in a chain that have a favorable outcome to one side or another. These favorable outcomes are neither predictible nor measurable. If a guy strikes out the side and then his team gets a run in their next AB, can we predict from that series of events that the pitcher will continue to throw scoreless innings? Obviously, the answer is no. Sorry for all you romatics out there, momentum is just a bad sports analogy.
  18. I use to live right under that 95 sign. Right on the intercostal waterway. We use to have manatees swimming in our backyard. Why did I ever move.
