  1. It's not like there isn't bad blood between those two teams. I don't see why the guy has to be given a hard time for lamenting a non-entertaining game. he's being given a hard time because lamenting a lack of "goonery" is dumb Well, that wasn't the only thing he mentioned. He said it was a boring game and not even a fight to spice things up. Then you insulted him for no good reason.
  2. Gaudin? Gaudin isn't spanking anybody. 1 hit 1 run and a bunch of walks through 4. We should be doing better. 2 of their 3 best hitters aren't playing and the opposing pitcher has already thrown 83 pitches. I'm not sure how much better they "should" be doing.
  3. He's very good against everyone. But you've got a great hitter in the middle of the worst offense in the game. There is literally no reason to give him drivable pitches. yeah but he's the first batter of the inning. unless the rest of the offense is pitchers, it's a pretty bad idea to just give a free pass to a leadoff hitter. No, but you don't feed the middle of the zone, either. Pitch him borderline, and if you lose him, you lose him. He's the only guy in their lineup who has proven he can hurt you. It's Ryan Dempster, it's not like he can put the ball exactly where he wants it. And it's not like the guy can't drive a borderline pitch either.
  4. Is that a rhetorical question? Just seems like WGN is on the way out for cubs broadcasts. I don't know if they are airing substantially fewer than they did last year, but this is a trend that's at least a decade old.
  5. I'm surprised to see Reed Johnson and Aaron Miles both have an OPS over 500 this season. Good for them.
  6. No, I'm fine with the guy they replaced Theriot with.
  7. Because Milton Bradley is taking the day off.

  9. Nothing Ive heard yet, Im guessing hes just getting a day off after a night game last night. With a suspension coming couldn't he play one more game. You know Watson is waiting for the Astros series to rule on the suspension. I'm all for babying Milton as much as is necessary. Yeah, he's going to miss lots of games, I'm not too concerned about him taking off days.
  10. Yeah, I can watch a random football game that I have no real rooting interest in, college or pro. But I don't think I've ever watched much more than a couple minutes of a non-Cubs baseball game, on tv at least. I guess that indicates I like football better.
  11. But that's only because their pitchers don't have any control. Ryan Dempster on the other hand has perfect control and can't accidentally miss his spot. Wow i hope you're kidding because if you aren't, that has to be the dumbest post i've ever read on this board to say that Dempster has perfect control. Alright, near perfect control. As close to perfect control as you can get without technically fulfilling the absolute standards of perfection.
  12. Looks to me like they will likely get this one in, perhaps with a little delays to start, and maybe one or two delays midgame.
  13. Weren't the Blackhawks the first to start round 2 despite being among the last to end round 1?

  15. I believe Bruce Miles wrote 440 feet in his column.
  16. I don't have a problem with spontaneous celebration of meaningful events - like getting out of a big inning, winning the game, etc. I hate all foms of preplanned celebratory moves. That goes double when guys cry about other people mimicking your ridiculous preplanned celebration like that roid head with the lights out nonsense.
  17. Cubs fans are not anywhere close to Mets fans when it comes to hating your team. Both Boston and the Yankees are much worse, because not only do they bitch about every little misstep, but they do it despite the memory of recent World Series titles which should shut up any complainers for a long time.
  18. My wife is a big Lovie fan, and when she saw the photo the other day she was disappointed in the caliber, so to speak. I had to explain to her that Lovie was a nobody when he was single. she looks as if she has had a face lift Followed by a slow drop.
