  1. Considering his first MLB start was against arguably the best team in baseball at the last minute, I think that's a pretty damn promising debut for him. Congrats to SG and his family!
  2. Give Soto a day off and start Cedeno at SS, please.
  3. Shweet! Lou annoys the hell out of me, but this is a kickass decision.
  4. I don't know where you can find the montage, sine they always get yanked off YouTube, but the song was Silverchair's (yes, them) "Straight Lines."
  5. This is a good point. No sense in wasting a bench player when you have a good pinch runner in Marquis (and should he get hurt, it's no great loss). plus there is the outside chance that marquis will hurt himself. all in all, a lot of positives here. :lol: I'd actually rather him not get hurt...there's still the chance we can deal him at the deadline if he's healthy and hasn't hit one of his horrible months yet. Too late. Lou being "better" than Dusty is like how getting a D+ or a C- is technically better than getting an F. I am baffled as to why Fontenot remians the goto guy first off the bench in situations where Cedeno would be infinitely better offensively and defensively.
  6. Friday: Cubs win with Lilly struggling prior to game Saturday: Cubs come from behind to win, bring Marmol in to shut the door. Cubs up 2-0. Sunday: Ace (big Z) on the mound against a 41 yr old pitcher. Good odds there. Cant say I blame Lou. He is rolling the dice abit, but its a good gamble. You'd rather gamble that today's game is a blowout against the best team in baseball and Marmol won't be needed than gamble that Fox/Wuertz/Howry could protect a five-run lead in one inning? That's not a good gamble; it is, in fact, an incredibly short-sighted one. all 3 of those pitchers have struggled MIGHTILY, so yea, I'd rather take my chances with Z "MIGHTILY" to the point that they're likely right now to give up 5+ runs? Come on.
  7. What a waste of amazing talent. Forever depressing.
  8. Hail Satan. Lou is a weird, weird guy.
  9. best line ever One of the best terrible movies ever.
  10. You'll be missed. Maybe. Eh, probably not.
  11. STOP EATING MAH SESAME CAKE.
  12. I see minimal looming, if that.
  13. 2:40?!? Ugh, screw off, Fox. I thought I was gonna get to see most or all of this game before I had to leave for work by 3:30. Jerks.
  14. Well, Fukudome's back home where he loves to hit, so hopefully his slump should be ending. His severe road/home splits are a little worrisome.
  15. No more of the "colored" peoples in the stands or on the field, too. Ah, the terrible good ol' days.
  16. if my grandpa made it to 85, ANYBODY can I don't want anyone over the age of 65 running the damn country. If that makes me an "ageist"...GOOD. Why? How about 64 1/2? I'm tired of old people getting the job. With everything else, we look at 65 as the age when people should be retired by and settling into the autumn years of their life. Why do we make a exception with the most powerful job in the world and willingly hand it over to people who would likely drive us bonkers in every other professional walk of life? Again, maybe I'm being biased. Old people can go off and be old and be happy...but stay out of the Oval Office. If we have a minimum age for the job, we should have a maxmimum one for it, too. lucky for you we've gone 16 years without a retirement aged person in the white house Hey, it's no guarentee for a good president, but I'll take my chances.
  17. AND LEON IS GETTING LAAAARRRRRRRRRRGER!!!
