    Same here, Ron NEEDS to see the Cubs win a World Series before he goes, granted I also hope he lives 100 more years. Same goes for my dad. He's the reason I'm a Cub fan. He's getting up there in age, has lots of health problems, and is slowly going blind. I want it more for him than anyone else. That probably explains the quality of his color analysis. You've heard my dad analyze a Cub game before? :-k

    8 hits and 7 walks? Is that right? How did we only score once?

    Swing the [expletive] bat, man.

    Good job by Howry there. That makes me nervous that Lou will let him pitch next inning and we will see the same Howry that we've seen all year.

    HOWRY?! :banghead:

    I have to agree with vance here. There isn't one clear cut MVP on this team. That's not to say there hasn't been players who have been valuable, but in no way can you say Player X is more valuable to the team then Player Y. etc, etc. This team is winning because you have 25 guys working together as 1. So yeah, there isn't an MVP (such an individual award for a team that has won as a team) on this team. With that said, if the Cubs can get Derrek Lee to stop calling for his inner Matt Murton (as one poster so elegantly put it) and channel the MVLee we loved a few yrs ago, then this team would be truly, truly, truly, ridiculously good. And that's the crazy thing. None of our big guys are really having great years. They are putting up some solid numbers, but it's not like they're all having career years or playing out of their minds. But yet the team is still cranking out the W's at a high rate.

    There is an obvious choice and I can't believe no one has mentioned him yet. Wait for it. Here it comes. Are you ready? Jason Marquis Yes, I'm kidding. :D

    Chippy is a moron and a crappy announcer. So glad he's gone.

    I just don't get Lou sometimes. :-k

    He used to wear a red jersey?

    Harden goes in the night game. But won't be able to make his scheduled start on Sunday now.

    What does "ftw" mean?

    I LOVE the bat flip and quick stare at the Cardinals dugout. That was most definitely directed at LaRussa. :yahoo:

    Even if I can't get tickets, I'm coming up from Texas.

    I already reserved a room at my brother's house in Bartlett. :grin:

    Thanks, everyone. I don't want to assume anything, but I also don't want to wait until the last minute to request time off from work.

    It seems odd that they would start on a Wednesday and then not play on Friday night.

    Maybe he prefers the Japanese way where the manager punches him in the face for sucking this bad.
  22. Old Style
    Or will the start date depend on how long the division series and championship series last?
  23. Old Style
    I guess I should thank Fox for not showing the game here yesterday. Oh well, I ended up scoring free tickets to Ozzfest anyway. I would have missed the game regardless.

    I hope you don't think you were the first NSBB poster to realie this. :D http://www.northsidebaseball.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=50327 You posted that on Monday the 4th. Are you that premature with your wife, too? ;)

    I think it should be Snake Eyes. Or maybe Mrs. Ripken Jr.
