  1. If that was true then they'd definitely let us buy tickets and then refund everything except the "service" fee and laugh all the way to the bank. I love how these tickets are going to have a service fee. This is the worst service ever.
  2. Wait so you're supposed to play for the Cardinals even when you don't play for the Cardinals?
  3. I still think it's weird that they give out hats and shirts for the Wild Card "Yeah we finished first of all second place teams"
  4. nice avatar, you should keep it permanently. then have someone change your user name to Ramirez16 or something of that nature ELGEOVANY18 [-( Do it. You know you want to
  5. Why would anyone mind?? You've been a class act since day 1. Post away... And he's rooting for the Cubs. And he probably cares way more than we do.
  6. He's thrown some good pitch's to Beltran though.
  7. I think the Cubs should go against Santana with the intention of fouling of every pitch they see so they can tire him out as much as possible.
  8. Even if the game doesn't matter that much it's nice to see them work the pitcher.
  9. I don't think I'm going to get to buy tickets. Maybe I'm destined to buy World Series tickets :D
  10. I still don't get the Stanzi love. he's really not any better. our offensive line was terrible with their pass protection today, and Pitt had pretty good coverage when either QB was given time to throw. they had no business losing that game today and should have won by at least 10. Shonn Greene should have been given the damn ball on the 2nd to last series instead of passing every down. I couldn't disagree more. How do you figure Stanzi isn't any better? You really don't notice a HUGE improvement in accuracy and decisiveness between the two? That's absolute craziness. How many bounce passes has Ricky thrown? Many of Jake's completions (2-3 more today) are in bad spots where guys have to slide to catch them. The o-line wasn't that bad. Jake's lack of decisiveness cost us 2-3 sacks because he got happy feet and panicked. I figure Stanzi isn't better because he's not. both have been inconsistent to terrible in stretches this season. we must have been watching a different game if you think the o-line wasn't that bad. they did a great job with the run, and I'd give them a D for their pass protection, though it did improve as the game went on You know he's not better because he had a bad stretch in one game during his first career start in terrible weather? When else has he been terrible or inconsistent in any game? As far as the o-line, I think you've already shown that you're watching a different game than everyone else. Re-watch the game and look at the sacks. There were maybe 3 legit sacks on the day. One of them was Greene making a poor block in pass pro. Jake took 2-3 sacks because of his happy feet and indecisiveness yet again. So you really do not feel that Stanzi is a more accurate passer? You really do not feel he puts more touch on the ball? You really do not feel that he makes quicker decisions? How many times have you seen Stanzi bounce a routine 8-yard pass for a first down? Most importantly Stanzi CLEARLY performed better in the first half of yesterday's game and it wasn't close. Yet he didn't get a snap in the second half. We've seen what Jake is and what he will be. He's now played 17 games and even though the entire supporting cast around him is improved, he is performing exactly the same and has the exact same weaknesses. Stanzi isn't going to be All-Big Ten or anything but Christensen is the worst college QB I've ever seen. He can't throw more than 20 yards down field making the only thing he can do decently (throw short passes) completely useless.
  11. Geovany Soto - His home run in San Diego. It seemed like he was determined to hit one out of that park. The first one was WTP and the next one got out. Derrek Lee - His insurance RBI against the Brewers in the sweep Ryan Theriot - Being surprised at how good he's been Mark DeRosa - Grandslam against the Astros Aramis Ramirez - Walkoff against the Sox Alfonso Soriano - That hot streak (in June I think) where it seemed like every at bat was a home run Jim Edmonds - GS against the Brewers Kosuke Fukudome - His go ahead single against the Astros the first week of the year (because I was there) Reed Johnson - His home run against the Pirates Mike Fontenot - 3 run 2B against the Marlins Ronny Cedeno - Grand slam against the Mets Henry Blanco - His home run in the 8 run comeback Daryle Ward - His 3 run homer against the Marlins Carlos Zambrano - The No-No Rich Harden - Every game he's pitched really. I love to watch him pitch. Ted Lilly - Out pitching CC in the sweep Jason Marquis - His weird looking facial hair Ryan Dempster -Striking out the side in the All Star game Kerry Wood - The game against the Cards where he looked like he was going to blow it but than got Pujols to pop out Carlos Marmol - His slider Neal Cotts-Not sucking as much as I thought he could Chad Gaudin-Realizing that we won the trade with Oakland Bob Howry-Seeing his name become the filter for a swear word.
  12. I like just sitting back and enjoying a baseball game. This is fun.
  13. This week long thing with relatively meaningless game for a good Cubs team is weird.
  14. I thought that once the Cubs clinched I would get some schoolwork done but noooooooooooo, I am refreshing my email to see if I get a stupid playoff ticket confirmation sheet. At least I am spending my life wisely.
  15. I don't really want to play the Phillies in the first round so go Iowa Cubs.
  16. I am happy to say that I DON'T CARE ABOUT THIS GAME!!!!
  17. Looks like we're playing the Mets or Phillies for sure because the Brewers lost again.
  18. So do we rest everyone tomorrow or are they going for HFA first.
  19. I hope the Iowa Cubs win 7 games the next week. Let's get to 100.
  20. Please Please Please win in the playoffs Cubs.
  21. LOL, Would you have ever thought Jim Edmonds would catch the clincher.
