    That gets REAL old for me, especially coming from Astros fans. Um, what exactly has your team ever won? A pennant. Three years ago, in fact. And how many World Series games did they win? The same number the Cubs have won in the past 60 years or so.

    I wish we could get rid of Soriano, but that's not going to happen. He better not lead off next year. I love what Edmonds/Johnson did for us this year, but we can't expect that again next year. I wish Pie would be given a legitimate shot to play everyday, but I'm relatively certain that will never happen unless he bats over .300 the first week of the season. Fuku should spend the next 4 months in America trying to learn how to hit American pitchers. We need a real SS. We need to examine DLee's role going forward. He should either be a #2 hitter or no higher than 6th. What power he did have has completely left him. And that's just the position players. God knows what we need to do with the pitching staff.

    All the great moments from this season have been completely washed away by the last 3 games. This sucks.

    We were [expletive] robbed. The pitching screwed us in game 1. The defense screwed us in game 2. I guess it's the umpires turn tonight.

    NRH? Yeah.... he's in your 'hood !! That's what I was wondering. I may need to meet Vance at Jaguars after the game. Do you prefer Jaguars to Baby Dolls? I'm watching here at the house and doubt I'll get out afterwards...but I'll be back in these parts again in November. Baby Dolls right by Jaguars? That place sucks. There is one in Dallas that is much better. I only mentioned Jaguars because it is close.

    Exactly. Don't win this for Cubs fans, or their grandfathers, or whatever or whoever you want to win for. Nobody but the 25 men who play the game, should only want to win it for the guy who they sit next to. The guys you battle through 162 games of up and down. Winning and losing streaks. Day and night games. And doubleheaders and 4 games in 3 night scheduling. Do it fo the guy who comes into work at 8 am and leaves the job hours after the game is over. Do it for the guys who works hard even tho it doesn't look like he's trying hard, and he gets rip in themedia. Most importantly, do it for yourself. No fans, no matter the age or health, or race or IQ level goes through what each and every ballplayer goes through in a professional season. Win it because you've play baseball long enough that you should be at the top of the pinnacle. Do it for youself. Each player deserves to be call "the best" if for one shining moment in their lives. The fans, the love, the celebration are fun and a nice perk to winning, but do it to reach the top of your profession. That's all I ask. Without the fans, these guys don't have a job.

    I was really impressed with Z's composure, and he did pitch well. No complaints here. Ditto.

    Dodger fans had a World Series to celebrate 20 years ago. Not much help to the 19-year-old Dodger fans who get leukemia, is it? Why do you hate the leukemia kids? Instead of hoping for a Cubs win, you should fly down to LA right now and start taunting a children's hospital's leukemia ward. It's the same thing. Buy me a plane ticket and those kids will get an earful.

    Few situations in the history of major league baseball were as irrelevant to the outcome of a game as that one. That's not the point.

    You think Lou would have gotten the picture when Torre brought in a damn righty from the bullpen to face Fukudome last night with 2 men on and 2 out. That would have been a great PH spot for Hoffpauir. Oh, wait.
