Hopefully you're somewhat close to sober then.

I LOVE YOU TOO!

Why am I a Cubs fan? Geovany Soto. Why am I a Cubs fan? One lonely day in the summer, I was just browsing through channels and nothing was on... So I turned randomly to the Cubs game... And it looked really interesting. Double plays, hits, home runs. From then on, even though they lost that game, I got hooked. Why am I a Cubs fan? I need something to complain about. Why am I a Cubs fan? Why am I not a Cubs fan? Why am I a Cubs fan? Because the White Sox have a enough fans. Red, white and blue are also a lot better than black and white. You hate the Cubs, you hate America. Commy. Why am I a Cubs fan? Summer. The Cubs are about waking up each and every day of the summer thinking what will happen that day on the diamond. Turning on the TV and computer half asleep. Checking (and usually complaining) about the line-ups on NSBB. Jumping up when something exciting happens and sitting there silently shaking your head at mistakes the Cubs make. Watching the Chicago Cubs play at the best ballpark ever built in the best city in the world. Watching a team you love, players you adore. Lee, Ramirez, Wood... Then when the game is over you go to the local baseball field with some friends to play some ball and you emulate the delivery of your favorite pitcher and the batting stance of your favorite hitter... And come home to sit next to your bed while bouncing a baseball into your glove because the padding is too thick... as the sun sets...

I would prefer not to see the Marlins ever again. Move them to Las Vegas or the AL. Or both.

"When you're that good, you'll last." My ass. He's one of the worst umpires to step foot on the diamond... and certainly the worst umpires in the game today. Right in front of Angel Hernandez, CB Buckner, and Joe West.

I still can't believe it. It feels like it did after the NFC Championship. This is actually happening. Somebody pinch me.

(About Roast's pics) Horses? Seriously? What age do we live in?

This game is about to be replayed at 12:30am CT on CSN... It will also include the post game celebrations at the end of it.

Thanks! He's probably my most favorite player on the roster. He's been camouflaged in the celebration. I don't think he was even interviewed.

I have yet to see Rich Hill anywhere in the celebrations.

Tim, hows the bandwidth holding up?

Alright... So who wins the wet T-shirt contest?

Who gets game 3? Hopefully a spot start to Gallagher or Marshall.

I still cant believe it! Victory tastes a lot sweeter and more worth it after you've lost like no tomorrow. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

And so it begins... http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/5848/cbo3df0.jpg

CSN has stopped coverage, too. Pro Football Preview.

And other stations have live National shows they have to go to.. Leno, Letterman.. Oprah...

I have yet to see Rich Hill anywhere.

Piniella interview on CSN.

And with that... The Cubs have won 2 NL Central titles under the reign of Jim Hendry.

DeRo on CSN. About to cry.

Kerry's on WGN... Right after he owned Z. LOL. I love it.

Winner of the Wet T-shirt contest? It comes down to Lou or Z.

You can't understand a word Soriano says... It's even worse when he's drunk.
