  1. too bad you all aren't like me, who wanted to put roberts at 2B and move derosa to RF before the season even started. now that would have been the best thing for the cubs.
  2. the nfl is so weird.
  3. quiet you
  4. Its Cedeno its the cool thing to do around here. Every team has to have a whipping boy for the fans, and its Cedeno for this board so one poster can't stand that this board loves cedeno. and you can't stand that cedeno is this board's whipping boy. which one is it? is anyone just ok with cedeno?
  5. LET'S NOT FORGET EDMONDS DUMB PLAY IN CENTER TOO
  6. i'm not even really mad. i'm almost giddy with bewilderment on how that one got blown.
  7. haha the bengals are going to be terrible this year.
  8. that was so awesome. i don't know if they captured it on tv or not, but when soriano took the field after his 3rd homerun, the whole stadium erupted in cheers through the warm up tosses. the marquis home run ball landed exactly 1 row in front of me.
  9. in the 1st group shot, i noticed how old joe sewell was. i never heard of him, so i looked up his numbers on baseball-reference, and holy crap something really sticks out. in 1925, in 608 at bats, he struck out 4 times. and that wasn't an anomaly. in his 162 game averages, he strikes out 10 times in 607 at bats. but that's not the crazy part. he wasn't some free-swinging hacker, he actually drew a good number of walks, averaging 72 a season. in his last season he drew 71 walks and struck out 4 times. his isoD for his career is .079. not surprisingly, he's #1 on the career list of at-bats per strikeout by a HUGE margin. sewell had 62.56 at bats per strikeout, and the guy in second place, lloyd waner, had 44.92 at bats per strikeout.
  10. don't embarrass me in front of my girlfriend, cubs. CUBS WIN 11-10 IN 13 INNINGS.
  11. i'll watch a few innings here and there, but i rarely sit down and watch an entire game unless the cubs are playing.
  12. when we're hot, the brewers are hot. when we suck, the brewers suck. i guess that's a positive. the head to head matchups will be the key.
  13. he hit his first major league homer yesterday after 19 seasons in the minors. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=280903127
  14. cubs get a ring, zambrano gets paid $17.75 million to not pitch, sounds like everyone wins.
  15. hey, at the end of the day, the magic number still went down by 1. go cubs?
  16. Or not. What Valverde does is no different than what Zambrano does. Zero percent different. but when zambrano does it, it's cute
  17. daryle ward will save us
  18. That makes two of us. I'm absolutely expecting a collapse now. Folks, this team is perfectly capable of going 4-20 and missing the playoffs altogether. It's not likely, though. Probably no more than a 20% chance. no, it's not.
