  1. The public is stupid if they don't watch that series. It should be very entertaining. Go Rockies.
  2. Well, national media, you got what you wanted, the Cubs are going to be pathetic and cursed and whatever the hell else and you'll get to drop 100 years on us next year
  3. Already batted, he's why we're as close as 4
  4. Pretty. What the hell else were you expecting, Derrek
  5. DBacks don't even need Valverde, but why not rub it in?
  6. Everything that has happened in this series is a reason why I was saying for weeks beforehand that I wanted to face any other potential playoff team besides Arizona. Webb/Davis, the ludicrous luck, the Stephen Drew God complex, our bizarre inability to do anything in Chase Field...ugh.
  7. Stephen Drew made a good play. How about that.
  8. I really don't want to watch this anymore. But here I am.
  9. How the hell are we in the playoffs?
  10. I WANT CUBS PLAYOFF BASEBALL, LET'S GET READY TO DROP THE SOAP ON THESE COWBOYS
  11. No because we will clobber him in the World Series. :D 68 minutes!!
  12. This just in: Matt Holliday is the NL MVP.
  13. Unless I'm much mistaken it will be, ESPN Radio has carried all the playoff games for a while now. I can't guarantee something didn't change with the new media contract but I'd be surprised.
  14. I dreamt on Monday night that Lilly went ape on an ump in the last game of the reg. season, put him in a headlock, and got himself suspended for the entire playoffs. It took me a half hour after I woke up to make sure I hadn't actually seen that.
  15. I don't sleep during Cubs playoff games. It's physically impossible. I'm absolutely getting beat down with assignments and newspaper stories this week but I wouldn't miss one second of this.
  16. Where is that? I've seen some seedy places in the city - notably the good ol' Mark Twain hotel just down the street from my apt - but haven't heard about the hotel w/ wall-to-wall mirrors. It was the Lincoln Inn. I can't remember offhand what street it was on but it was across from a Walgreens and the street took you straight to Lake Shore.
  17. My dream the night before last was that Ted Lilly went absolutely ape soap dropper on an umpire in the last game of the season, put him in a headlock, and got himself suspended for the entire postseason. It probably took me a half hour to make sure in my head that this did not actually happen. 9 hours and 27 minutes. GO CUBS!
  18. I don't know how many times the Cubs have been on TBS when they played the Braves but they were definitely on once this season at least (the Z vs. Barrett fight game). The Soriano 3-HR game was also on TBS. T-minus 14 hours and 33 minutes.
  19. I saw him pinch-hit last night and told my friend I'd literally never heard of him in my life. He got a hit, though, so it was all good.
  20. I'm staying at a cheap motel not far from Wrigley. It's only costing me $65 a night. Of course, I think I'm going to bring my own sheets. At that price, I'm not sure what the bed will look like. What's the name of the hotel? Sheffield House. Dear god, I'm reading some reviews of that place online now. It's scaring me. As I said, I'm bringing my own sheets. My friends and I paid $52 a night at a hotel about 10-15 minutes from Lake Shore Drive when we went to Chicago in late July. Granted, it was a blatant cover-up for a prostitution ring (different rates for 10 hours or overnight, mirrors all over the room including the ceiling, etc.), but hell, for $52 a night that close to downtown, I don't care what it's covering up for as long as I don't have to be involved.
  21. I don't recall DeRosa ever being a goat. People didn't like the dollars he got, but we were much more concerned with the Blanco re-signing, the Marquis signing, the Lilly signing and the Soriano signing to be too worried about DeRosa. That said, if the Cubs somehow do this, DeRosa will be one of the people remembered most fondly from this team. Hell, he will be anyway.
