Why the long face? A Cub win tonight and a Cardinal loss moves the Cubs to 13 games back. But still 9.5 back in the Wild Card Not a chance. Oh there's definitely a chance. Not a very good one, but we're not out of it yet. As I said in another thread, a four game win streak could feasibly put us just 5.5 games out of the Wild Card with a month and a half to go. I'm with ya Mizzou!!!
Haha the president race in Washington was so corny when I went to the Cubs game there last month. All the promotions were real corny.... "Paint the town red!!" And all the games like "guess the attendance" (unscramble a bunch of digits) are so staged... it was nice to quiet down the Nats fans when Aram went upper deck for the second time... too bad our bullpen sucks and we lost that game. :(

If Tony Larussa were managing the Cubs, Z would have already hit Jason Bay twice. I was at Gorz' last start, against the Giants. Wright hit three Pirates. Maybe he's making up for it here? :roll: I'm off to catch my flight. I'll be at the game tomorrow! Go Cubs!
