  1. I agree with maybe 3 of those. I got about 5-6. It's ridiculous that we don't have a video board anywhere in the stadium. It's 2009, not 1959. The stuff worth seeing (blown calls) would never be shown. Not worth it.
  2. Here's to seeing the Cincinnati Gorzelanny instead of the Denver Gorzelanny. I'm not sure what will get me first - the standings or this run of five straight late night games. I'm getting too old for this west coast [expletive].
  3. It was Larry Himes. Sandberg hated him because of Sosa and the Cubs' new video room. He worships DG.
  4. Thanks for reminding me how awful that speech was. Completely classless of him to spew his petty hatred of Sosa from the HOF podium. That said, I loved him back in the day.
  5. Who will step up to heal our nation in the wake of this travesty? This Johnny Macchione has stained the game.
  6. Someone in the crowd at Wrigley dumping a beer on a player or throwing something at them as that player is about to make or is making a play? Please list some of the "many, many" times this has happened. No list, but the beer dump is nothing new.
  7. This has happened many, many times over the years. If the game's not on ESPN, or the Cubs weren't playing a NORTHEASTERN team, this is a non-issue.
  8. So now we're slitting wrists before the game even starts?
  9. This was hard to watch. Having said that, I would probably do the same and make them take the uniform from me.
  10. How many more cities must Dusty ravage before his remaining supporters WAKE THE [expletive] UP?
  11. The 5:00 EST start put it within ESPN's exclusive Sunday Night Baseball window. Blame the Marlins.
  12. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y225/southfork76/2c22a2e19ab61307b3a32710cd8f335c122.jpg I JUST CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS NEWS
  13. The goat sound effects are just as bush league as they were last year.
  14. Not at all.
  15. I suppose it would be easier if I believed that. I don't. He had it.
  16. I agree that those people are culpable, but their ineptitude does not completely absolve Bartman. He is one of many goats from that night.
  17. Selig should reinstate Rose via a Twitter post on the morning of September 13. With a few keystrokes he could give Rose what he wants without the dignity of a full presser, knock the NFL opening day off the front pages and put around 5,000 season tickets back into the Reds' coffers.
  18. I'll take the word of the guy who still gets to go on road trips.
  19. The sure-to-be glorious debut is set for 2009.
  20. I assume we're looking at a demolition of the entire upper level (400s/500s/suites) and a refurbishment of the existing lower level (200s/100s/10s). The new upper deck would presumably be built taller to eliminate the "tunnel vision" that exists in most of the 200 level seats, and with wider aisles to accommodate handicapped fans and better crowd flow. The current upper deck went up separately from the rest of the park in the 1920s. In theory, it could be switched out with an updated version so long as the park's foundation could take it (which it possibly could; a study done in the early 2000s showed that Wrigley was still very stout at its base.)
