  1. Cub bats will show up tonight Final LA 4 Cubs 9 Go Cubs
  2. I landed sectiom 339, rox2 seat 9 & 10 Thanks a bunch Go Cubs
  3. Daley is worried about Chicago's chances for hosting the Olympics in 2016 The potential celebration if/as the Cubs progress deeper into the playoffs does get a little scary There are always a few knuckleheads who overdo things and we have 100 years pent up for a real celebration The reality is wether they cut off booze sales for an hour or two will not change the outcome - when the Cubs will the WS this town will go ape#### crazy I for one plan on joining in Go Cubs
  4. This is goofy What purpose does this "waiting till the last minute" serve? Go Cubs
  5. Thank you, I enjoyed watching the video (kept getting shivers down my spine) As I'm watching it I was wondering who could have guessed a few months back how many of those moments would contain Jim Edmonds - this whole season has been amazing Go Cubs
  6. Monday is the day? I'm ready Go Cubs
  7. Assuming this brewer/red score holds, even when the Cubs get clobbered today the magic # will drop to 1 I guess thats why it's callled magic Go Cubs
  8. I hear "you have to be on a contenting team" qualifier way to often If Ryan Howard was my starting 1st baseman and I could trade him even up for Albert Pujols, I'd take that deal in a heartbeat Pujols has had a better 6 months of baseball no matter how hot Howard is for the last 5 weeks of the season If you have to be on a contending team to win the MVP, then Banks has 2 awards to return and Dawson 1 Go Cubs
  9. So much for "newspapers are dying - internet is the future - etc" comments he made upon his departure from the Suntimes Looks like he outlived his welcome at the Suntimes and found a new pack of fools to hire him at the Trib
  10. Big Papi put down a sac bunt in last night's Boston/Tampa Bay extra inning game (2nd in his career) There is a place for bunting in MLB, however .. ... .. it should be used only for pitchers, light hitting guys, etc - not sluggers When Soto squared up to bunt in the St L game I came up out of my chair yelling at Lou not to take the bat out of Geo's hands Go Cubs
  11. Be careful what you wish for
  12. i don't get the joke **sarcasm off** As I am marveling at Aramis smoking HR after HR there was a sequence of 8 or 9 bombs off of RH pitchers and I was chuckling to myself "no need for the Reed/Jimmy platoon at third base"
  13. He seems to hit OK off of RH pitchers, we can stop platooning him
  14. Zero stats to back this up but I believe Santo struck out more often them Rammy Thats one of the things I have always appreciated about Aramis, he has a power swing but hits so well with 2 strikes, makes contact
  15. I noticed a 250 symbol with some small text on the Pirates uniform near the right shoulder What is this for?
  16. I wonder what Jack Brickhouse would have to say about this team? This year has been sooo much fun Go Cubs
  17. Magic number is a simple calcuation and I have been keeping track for a while now - 31 and counting Go Cubs
  18. Been cheering for the Cubs since the 60's (Adolpho Phillips, Carmen Fanzone, etc.) - Best Cub team 1 - 25 that I have ever seen For a roster spot reserved exclusively for pinch hitting we do need an upgrade for Ward - Lee and Fukudome have tailed off - Howry continues to stumble . ... .. No team is perfect but I like what I see If we stay injury free I'll take my chances with this team Go Cubs
  19. $6.50 Beer
  20. 50/50 then Squirt
  21. Coming into this series I would have been fine with a split. Both teams had their pitching set up well, on paper this game look like the most lopsided match-up. With the performances of Lilly, Z and Demster (who were outstanding) our pen is rested and ready. Rich, we need 5 or 6 strong innings and toss the keys to the pen. The burden is on the Cub bats to maintain and finally get Harden some well deserved run support Go Cubs
  22. Good old #17, Mark Grace Never out of style
  23. Backdoor fastball, slider, forkball, sinker, curve, cut fastball, etc - what do each of these pitches do? I realize each pitcher may have his own version of each pitch but after seeing countless shots from the center field camera looking over the pitchers shoulder at the catcher I still have a hard time distinguishing what a given pitch is Brandon Webb's sinker looks the same to me as Ben Sheets 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock curve :confused: Any enlightenment would be appreciated
