  1. Woohoo for having an all LSU middle infield one of these days. Geaux Cubbies!
  2. My favorite games from 89: The Houston 9-0 comeback: http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1989/B08290CHN1989.htm The Dunston over-the-shoulder double play to beat the Mets (says Samuel out at second, but it was at first): http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1989/B07280CHN1989.htm The Lloyd McClendon 3 run homer game (aka: who the hell is Lloyd McClendon?): http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1989/B05150CHN1989.htm Les Lancaster drives home Curtis Wilkerson from first with a double to beat the Giants. National TV night game with Al Michaels on the call: http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1989/B07200CHN1989.htm And from 88, Jeff Pico throws a shutout in his first career start. Harry almost had an embolism: http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1988/B05310CHN1988.htm
  3. More LSU players = good. I hope Fontenot gets his shot. He was more highly thought of than Theriot coming out of college because he had more of a live bat. He won't have as many chances to get on the field due to the glove being a little rougher. However, if he gets a shot and the bat comes through, he can do enough to stick on a club as a role player.
  4. I'm betting a dollar the next pitch is a slider.
  5. The deuce is looking sharp. Rowand just flailed at it as if he were a right-handed hitting Lilly.
  6. you really wanna cash that in during a game in May? I think we've got at least 20 games' worth. With slugger Lilly coming up, it would've been a bad time to waste it, indeed.
  7. Um. Did he just try to bunt for a hit on 0-2 with 2 outs? Interesting.
  8. Not a ground rule double when the fan touches it? Somebody owes us some fan interference karma, after all.
  9. Minesweeper and you shall never be parted. You'll be like Peaches & Herb, Ashford & Simpson, Captain & Tenille.
  10. Yeah, pretty much. I can't stand em. I have a friend who's a Pirates fan from the Pittsburgh area and he says he can't stand them. I guess they're universally hated. they mentioned the "game situation" about 17 times that half inning Don't you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby!
  11. Marquis is at 29 pitches through 2 innings, according to the MLB gamecast.
  12. I have tickets to the RR/Iowa game. They're behind home plate, 20 rows up. Weather forcast: 36 degrees, 80% chance of rain, sleet possible. Damn the luck.
  13. http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/images/2007/03/02/4p2x4emT.jpg Well, that's a huge noggin. That's a virtual planetoid. HEAD! MOVE!!
  14. http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/images/2007/03/02/VSLGk2me.jpg http://www.hollywoodcultmovies.com/assets/images/BillMurray1.jpg http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/images/2007/03/02/I9ago4WV.jpg http://www.lauraknauth.com/MovieCollectibles/Kahn_Chunk_sm.JPG Murton almost has a Casey Affleck (Good Will Hunting) look, but the ginger in him is all Murt.
  15. Article, including Samardzija's statement: http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070119&content_id=1782406&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb "In closing, I want to let Cubs fans know that I am committed to their team and their goal -- to bring a World Series championship to this great franchise. I only hope I can be a part of that someday."
  16. Excellent signature. I've got my purple & gold on. I know there's a lot of "what might have been" with this season, but we're in the midst of a bunch of 10+ win seasons, a national title, three Sugar Bowl wins in the 2000's, and a blowout over Miami last year. No sense complaining, might as well just soak in the good times while they're here. The Saints are in the playoffs, too. If the Cubs make it, it'll be like bizarro land.
