  1. I am thinking of venturing out of my hermit like Cubs lair for a few of these games, in large part because our screaming is terrifying the neighbors and dog. Anyone have a favorite? Any places feed delayed radio audio? I don't want to roll into just any bar for this.
  2. Was it ever officially announced that there would only be one afternoon game? I have a flight consideration for a possible game 5 and am trying to decide if I can get in at 5pm or not.
  3. We'd waste either one of these teams.
  4. These pregame shows have been God-awful. What the [expletive] are these guys talking about?
  5. Their popularity sure doesn't say great things, but we already knew most people are stupid. Their popularity is meaningless; people love vacuous celebrities and always have and always will. Why are they supposed to be so much worse? What lofty levels of enlightenment did they drag us down from?
  6. Will Jonathan Herrera be the first player to bat with plastic hands attached to his helmet?
  7. you underestimate the stupidity of most of our fan base (and baseball fans and people in general) I honestly don't think there would be any booing in that moment.
  8. I wonder if Jordan would be asked as well.
  9. I am going to be seriously upset if Sammy doesn't throw one. It would be the absolute perfect time and the crowd would go bananas.
  10. Yeah, it is really shitty. But that's also how reality TV works. Take the worst of everything, make it even worse, then force people to gawk like it's a car crash.
  11. Umm, he's been her ex-husband for some time now. The Kardashians are big-time. I believe he's just talking about the fact that they are referring to him as her ex as opposed to just Lamar Odom. I just blame all the idiots who watch that [expletive]. So am I. She is significantly more famous than he is, and has been for a while. Given that it was something mentioned on E!, against a demo where she's even more famous than Odom, I don't think it's a big deal.
  12. Umm, he's been her ex-husband for some time now. The Kardashians are big-time.
  13. Wasn't one of our whackjob trolls talking about becoming sellers in mid-July if we had a bad week? T.H.A.T.W.A.S.P.R.O.B.A.B.L.Y.S.O.N.T.E.N.S.E.I!!!!111
  14. It all flipped for me when I saw the second squeeze play and subsequent dong at Busch. Their fans were so incredulous after the ball hit the seats... there was this loud nervous hum, as if the whole stadium were asking, "How could the lowly Cubs do this to us? We're going to lose, aren't we?"
  15. "Ran into one"? Christ, even when they're not drunk driving they're thinking about drunk driving.
  16. I've seen PHG get pretty pumped a few times... maybe he's just a super old man who doesn't have the energy but loves the Cubs.
  17. Just left the Wrigley vicinity. Crowd was so so so much better tonight. Still pumped as [expletive]. [expletive] yeah Cubs!!!
  18. A coworker is selling 4 concec. seats in 139, row 11 for today for $300 each (wants to sell 2 or 4). I thought that was below Stubhub so figured I'd post on here. Interested? PM me. Mods, feel free to move if inappropriate.
  19. From STL's side, Wainwright threw 24 P last night, Siegrist threw 27, and Broxton threw 25. I'd guess we'll see Villanueva tonight and Rosenthal if Matheny really needs to stop some bleeding.
  20. Is anyone unavailable from our pen today? Who's coming in after Hammel?
  21. All night long... let me see those dooooooonnngggg.
  22. Doesn't Iowa lose @ NU even when NU sucks, anyway? That's Wisconsin.
  23. The problem with the crowd is how many 65 year olds who just want to see it happen once before they die buy up the tickets. They aren't noise makers or the least bit enthusiastic. The Cubs will have to win a world series once before you can clear out all the nostalgic boomers with money who can't be bothered to get loud. After that, the sky high prices will subside a little and louder 40 year old will be able to afford to go. That's mostly spot on. The guy who told me to sit down (2 strike count, 2 outs) was a gramp but chilled after I bought him a beer and told him to drink a little bit. However, I was surrounded by plenty of 30-40 year olds who had their hands in their laps the entire game. No chanting, no clapping, no yelling... I shouldn't be able to hear the catcher's mitt pop in the upper deck in the playoffs.
