Just put Gregg in; Rizzo is ending this in the 9th. -
Yes, it's not Bourbon's fault for not following a well-known rule or anything.
-
Cubs are going to still win this.
-
I just might be OK with Russell intentionally walking Beltran and Holliday and then facing Craig just so whatever bullpen abomination comes out in the 8th gets to miss them.
-
Way to justify WSR's love, Sweeney.
-
Dammit, Castro is really making me sad right now.
-
DON'T RUIN THIS FOR ME.

That was an enjoyable inning. Now shut 'em down, 'stache.
-
Mmmmmm, schnitzel.

Just to clarify, I meant "people being annoyed with Rose" when I said "this."

I've never been more insulted by anything in my entire life. -
DON'T MAKE THEM STOP.

How the [expletive] is this possibly racist.

Looks like this is what Nuts&Gum witnessed Sunday. Very sad. [expletive], that's crazy. Sad news.

I definitely remember his other issues coming up, but I glossed over the PF if it it was discussed. I might have just assumed it wouldn't be as big an issue with a baseball player.

What do we, as fans, need to do to get rid of 7th inning str

It's a song they sing after winning games, so I'm not sure why people hate it so much. It's a really cheesy song, so I guess it's that. It's just always been there for me; 1984 was the first year I was a fan and it was a semi-big deal then, plus my parents bought me the damn thing and being a little kid I played it until everyone's ears bled. It's burned into my brain whether I like it or not. It was a thing in 1984?! I don't think that's right It was played on the radio when I was a kid, and then came back as a thing after the games more recently. I don't have any memory of it being played at the games back then, but I rarely went as a kid. It was basically just that year, largely because Steve Goodman died then, too. It then mostly went away for the most part until the 2000's. -
Last year, I think It's been a lot longer than that. I'd guess a minimum of 4 years. It never forced him to miss any time while he was with the Cards, and I don't think it was as bad as it's been lately, but it was something that was talked about pretty regularly. ETA: According to Wikipedia, he was first diagnosed in the second half of the 2004 season. Wow, I completely missed that. I knew of his other health issues, but was completely blanked on that when I, like TT, was big on signing him.

Last year, I think Yeah, then they're proper fucked. That's tough.
-
SICK BURN.
-
When did that first crop up with Pujols?
-
Villanueva's mustache. And Rizzo against lefties.
-
It's all gone topsy-turvy!

Holy [expletive], did not expect a a Harry Craddock reference...well, ever.

Plantar fasciitis is the devil.
