  1. Why should we be cordial to a ---SOAPDROPPING--- Brewer fan on here talking Howry about the Cubs at this point? as I said, I didn't read it all. guess that explains that
  2. I'm not going to read this entire thread to see where Ender trolled, but there are plenty of people being a-holes in here
  3. no, no, no....bring THIS sign to Chavez Ravine: http://wayneandwax.com/wp/images/D-fence.jpg
  4. I can say unequivocally that I have never seen a team play as tight as the Chicago Cubs have the past 5 playoff games
  5. I made a comment in the game chat last night that TBS has the sound level really low on the crowd noise (compared to WGN/Comcast). I think that was part of the reason it seemed dead (pre-5th inning). My guess is that with all the criticism about the crowd today that tonight's crowd will be a bit more lively. That, and the fact that the crowd will have had a few hours to drink before the game instead of coming straight from work
  6. I love that the guy from CBS who was there with him did nothing but stare at him like "you've got to be kidding me"
  7. I think we need Z to be both good AND emotional. Last night's game was listless. I also think we need Soriano to do well. Many players say that as Soriano goes, the offense goes. The problem with this is that Soriano is one of the least emotional players I've seen on the Cubs. While he shows some spark when he plays well, he never seems to care when he doesn't. I'm sure he's never happy to strike out, but I'd like to see some frustration. I want to see that he cares. Maybe that's not his style, but if the offense takes Soriano's lead, then the conciliatory attitude Soriano displays when he fails seems to rub off on the rest of the team.
  8. I don't think a single person got a point on "Rich Hill's K's" and most people grossly underestimated Dempster's IP
  9. To be fair, he made that remark before we were losing. he also made it afterwards. But his point was valid. You can jump all over him all you want, but give him credit when he's right. his one game sample size of "US Cellular Field madness" is pretty accurate I think
  10. why would the bullpen not even start until Dempster was at 95 pitches and 6 BB's?
  11. No, it's not. if you win, you can go .500 and win the series if you lose, you have to go .750 to win the series it's close to must win
  12. Cubs don't have the pieces to move for him. That won't stop a dozen people here to offer Cedeno, Hoffpauir, Wuertz and Veal
  13. that explains the new Texas avatar what school will he root for when OU beats the Longhorns down in Dallas? Um, I go to Texas. ah, right, i forgot
  14. that explains the new Texas avatar what school will he root for when OU beats the Longhorns down in Dallas?
  15. i can lie and say just getting there would be enough, but I know it would suck to lose

  17. trust me, if/when the Cubs win the WS, there will be Cub fans who will be far worse than any White Sox fans are
  18. this press conference they've been showing on a loop on ESPN is the creepiest thing i've seen in some time
