He's a Sox fan, so he decided to randomly pick one Cub fan attending the home opener to send over to Afghanistan to fly a kamikaze mission against Al Qaeda. Anyway, is it to much to ask for someone to give an actual summary?
I am hoping to be one of those drunk fans come October, maybe game five or seven of the WS Wait, you don't actually think the NL is going to win the All-Star game, do you? Eh, game five. I see. I'm a moron.

Looked like he said "tight" to O'neal We all know what "tightness" means in the Cubs organization :-\ He's day-to-day We're going to go ahead and DL him. Probably the middle of May. We're thinking he'll be back just after the all-star break.
I agree, don't make him exclusively the closer, keep using him in the 6/7/8 to clean up messes and then let Gregg do it. If nobody struggles and we don't run into to any tight spots and Marmol is available in the 9th then use him. I would also probably be in favor of Gregg closing out most games in which we have a 3-4 run lead instead of using Marmol if both were available. That makes way too much sense for most MLB managers.
What about an offense that has been below average in 4 of 5 games against some pretty average pitching? I know it's only been 5 games, but it's only been 5 games for the bullpen too.
the outfielder - soriano - got a bad jump on a routine fly ball. you're ripping a shortstop for not making a catch on a lazy fly ball to left field. Sori didn't get a bad jump. He was badly positioned... which is more the fault of the coaching staff and Lou. Yeah, he should have been deeper to prevent the double. He looked like he was at normal depth.
I love how the bullpen coach had to keep asking which pitcher Lou wanted. The go-ahead run is on base. Which one do you think he wants? I'm guessing not Vizcaino.
