  1. Oh yeah. Of course, I don't think past success in whining dictates his future whining.
  2. That's a dubious statement ... but I'll grant you that the fans' attitude/atmosphere at Wrigley had a big hand in dealing us the events of Game 6. You would be correct. I should know. I was there. The studies that have shown that mass consciousness can affect the outcome of events are well-documented. It was something like a group of patients at a hospital were prayed for and group wasn't. The results were surprising, IIRC. Wasn't there another study recently done on patients who were prayed for, meditated for, some combination of the two, or neither that concluded prayer and meditation did nothing for them? I can't imagine that anyone actually believes that mass conciousness has an effect on something like the outcome of a baseball game, that's just ridiculous. Thanks for your 2 cents. When you educate yourself, the ridiculous can transform into the sublime. By all means then, please continue fooling yourself into believing nonsense. And you can continue fooling yourself into thinking you know better. How the hell can anyone actually believe this? What happens if 2 million cub fans think positive thoughts about the game, and 2 million cardinal fans do the same? A tie? And why is this still being talked about in here? Please drop it, everyone.
  3. Boy, Edmonds really likes communicating with his left-fielders.
  4. Pat Hughes: "Let's see if Lee can get a hold of one right here. He does! That ball's got a chaaaaaaaance GONE!!!" Beautiful.
  5. I just unmuted it for the heck of it. Did McCarver really reference Casablanca in the same broadcast that features Scooter? I think Fox Sports is having some issues trying to figure out who their demographic is.
  6. Jerome is gassed. And has been since the 2nd inning. It's a miracle that he's only given up 2 earned.
  7. Anyone else able to count the stiches on that blazing 84 mph fastball?
  8. Is there a reason you're bailing out on a 65-mph curve ball outside, Neifi?
  9. http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20050723&content_id=1141821&vkey=news_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc Of course... Hopefully Pie can get back in there sometime during the first week of August, at least.
  10. How badly? Is he out of the game? Yeah. Looks like he hurt his leg on a swing. Luna came in to PR.
  11. I think now's a good time to remind you that Dusty used up both long relief guys yesterday...in 1 1/3 innings. Rodriguez is hurt.
  12. Just wait until tomorrow. Boy is Walker struggling at the plate right now. And there are two quick outs. Just what the Cubs need after that bottom of the 2nd. Its going to be at least 100 degrees here in Chicago It's going to be rough. It's just a good thing ESPN picked up tomorrow's game. The heat index should reach 110 easily tomorrow in St. Louis. Ugh. Williams is losing it quickly in the heat.
  13. And Ramirez misses by about three feet. Ugh.
  14. Burny unloads!!! Couldn't touch the curve so Morris throws him a fastball right down the middle.
  15. Just wait until tomorrow. Boy is Walker struggling at the plate right now. And there are two quick outs. Just what the Cubs need after that bottom of the 2nd.
  16. Phew. So much for Jerome looking forward to playing in this heat. He looked gassed in the 2nd.
  17. Sometimes it is okay to barehand a comebacker, Jerome.
  18. Ah, yes. Show bunt and then swing at 1/4 strength. Nothing like giving yourself no chance of doing anything productive.
  19. Nobody should question managerial decisions today. You'll only overload your brain.
