  1. i've never played in one before this year, and it's safe to say i don't get them. this team is in the championship in a 12-team league. c shoppach 1b fielder 2b derosa ss alexei ramirez 3b beltre of hamilton of mcclouth of milledge of dye u jay bruce i mean, he's got good pitchers (z, oswalt, harden), but that's a really terrible lineup, isn't it? his first four draft picks were fielder, victor martinez, bedard and carlos guillen. i mean, [expletive]. i'm not bitter or anything, as i was WAY in last place before a late season surge and i was just kind of befuddled by the whole thing. and i had a lineup including adrian gonzalez, utley, aramis, berkman, quentin, and hawpe. my pitching wasn't great, but i had dempster, peavy, liriano, lilly and lowe. i mean, in our league wouldn't my team murder that team? anyway, i clearly prefer point-based leagues.
  2. chicago media just laying an egg right now...nothing on comcast or non-chicago wgn.
  3. ??? i've missed 90% of a potential no-hitter due these stupid tv rules. Oh I gotcha. You are aware of http://www.justin.tv/barcalysports right? it's choppy, late and has the houston announcers.

  5. i'd like to punch bud selig right in his ugly, stupid face. dick.
  6. BLESS YOU!! BLESS YOU!!!! It's 678 for me, but he is still blessed. :D looks like i would get it (doesn't say "channel not purchased"), but it looks like it's blacked out. well done, mlb.
  7. bochy should be fired immediately. 140 pitch CG for lincecum?? that's awful. wow, HORRIBLE call at second base spares papelbon a bunch of points. geez, that was bad.
  8. thom brennaman is a really bad football announcer.
  9. i'm still mad at lee for not telling lou and whoever was pitching at the time that carlos lee really kills cubs pitching.
  10. the playoffs don't start tomorrow. if they play this bad over the last 18 games, then i'll be concerned.
  11. me too. way better than the "hey, guys, let's lay down and take a beating tonight" speech he had been giving.
  12. i've actually heard lots of idiots make this argument. i think it stems from jealousy over players making millions of dollars and not being able to do something said idiots (incorrectly) believe they can do.
  13. no surprise that people complaining about the bunt are ripping soto for not getting it down instead of lou for calling it. dumb people make that argument a lot, i've noticed. and the benching of fukudome is getting kind of stupid. he needs to be playing every day unless he's hurt or asking for time off. i don't think being a defensive replacement every game is going to get his bat ready for the postseason. and i don't want fontenot or cedeno starting playoff games at 2b.
  14. lou's either trying to cover his ass by doing the most by-the-book stuff possible or he got kicked in the head by a horse. he's been as bad as any player during this stretch.
  15. with hill not around any longer, there has to be someone to psychoanalyze via watching baseball games on tv.
  16. We're going to have to play much better to even come in with a 7-12 finish. and they probably won't even need a 7-12 finish.
  17. yes...if the cubs finish 3-16, they may not make the playoffs. though if the cubs do finish 3-16, the phils would still have to go 12-7 (assuming they lose tonight) to pass the cubs. wow, are the cubs ever making the playoffs.
  18. everyone realizes that milwaukee and philly play each other four teams this week, right? thus making the chances of each of them finishing 16-3 or whatever virtually zero.
  19. the only meltdown i see is on this board.
  20. my goodness, is anyone "defending" cedeno? the cubs lost, get over it. it's not one guy's fault and bitching at the people that, at one point, kinda liked cedeno isn't going to change it. go for a walk or something.
  21. it did kinda look like it took a bad bounce/took off in a weird way. still should be an error though.
  22. not even close You sure about that? Both made errors in critical games late in the season to central division teams that lead to a loss? You want to rethink it? except in this situation, the cubs have like a 15 game lead. 15? Try dividing that in half. oh my god i'm so scared.
