  1. This is why I still worry about Marquis pitching a one game playoff against the Brewers. Sometimes he just has starts like this where he is very hittable.
  2. Are you kidding me? If anything the Red Sox Nation has been stronger since they won the World Series. The psyche of the Red Sox fans remains the same. They get pissed when their players aren't performing well, have an unbelievable inferiority complex towards the Yankees, and still freak out when New York is in their rear view. And don't believe when Bill Simmons insecurely tries to make it seem like hes not worried. The Cubs would change not at all if we won the World Series.
  3. This is pathetic. Those uniforms look like the Royals home unis from the back and side. I actually kinda liked the old Rays uniforms. Do they think this is going to change their losing culture or are they just trying to hide the losing by looking hideous. No road greys? WTH?
  4. Thats it? With all their callups those are the only 2 left? Or do you mean prominent hitters on the bench?
  5. Tony Gwynn in for Mench. Brief night for Kevin.
  6. I don't like it because its a sign of things to come Monday-Wednesday
  7. Mike Fontenot hates him more that vile scumbag
  8. http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN200409300.shtml One of them was. But we had already screwed the pooch pretty bad by that point. Wow. I totally forget Harang pitched that game! Looking back on those games, I almost forgot how much of the fault for the Cubs collapse Austin Kearns was. Look at this Game 3 of the series (9/29/04): -Game tied 1-1 in the third, bases loaded and 2 outs for Sosa. Sosa just misses a grand slam by inches as Austin Kearns makes a leaping catch against the vines to rob Sosa of at least a double and the Cubs of at least 2 runs. -Cubs up 2-1 in the bottom of the 9th and 2 outs. Runner on third. Austin Kearns hits a double to score the tying run. -Top of the 12th still 2-2, Austin Kearns hits a game winning 2 run home run. Game 4 of the series (9/30/04): -Top of the 7th, Cubs up 1-0 with 2 outs. Austin Kearns hits a game tying HR
  9. For fun....here are the Cubs records and position in the standings with 9 games to go in other years of interest 07 - 80-73 - 1st - 1.0 games up 04 - 87-66 - 2nd - 1.5 games up in WC, 14 behind in division 03 - 83-70 - 2nd - 1.5 games behind 01 - 82-71 - 2nd - 9.0 games behind 98 - 86-67 - 2nd - 0.5 games up in WC, 10.5 behind in division 95 - 66-69 - 3rd - 5.5 games behind in WC, 15.0 behind in division (only reason I mention this season is the Cubs ended up 2 GB with 2 to go) 89 - 86-67 - 1st - 4 games up 84 - 90-62 - 1st - 8.5 games up
  10. Thats exactly what I think will happen with Pujols out. Wainwright might be good for a victory in that series though. Who knows.
  11. As a fair weathered Blackhawks fan, I know exactly what your talking about. We actually still consider the Blues a rival too I think
  12. The Braves used to be based in Milwaukee, is anyone sensing a conspiracy 'brewing' here?
  13. I think I read somewhere that if the Brewers lose today, the percentage goes up to around 82%
  14. If the Cubs go......Brewers record to tie....to win: 0-9....2-9...3-8 1-8....3-8...4-7 2-7....4-7...5-6 3-6....5-6...6-5 4-5....6-5...7-4 5-4....7-4...8-3 6-3....8-3...9-2 7-2....9-2...10-1 8-1....10-1...11-0 9-0....11-0...N/A
  15. The Cub will be in Florida for the last 2 days of your trip at least.
  16. The only game of this series that will be on TBS is Sunday's game.
  17. Yup. Thank God. Between Wrigley and Soldier Field, Chicago sucks at keeping grass healthy
  18. I would be ok with it, but if he starts to suck we need to have a viable long reliever option ready.
  19. Gosh that would just be perfect if the Brewers replicated us and got their own amazing win.
  20. If we blow this opportunity I'm going to cry
  21. WHAT THE HELL OMG WHY DIDNT YOU GO!!!!! WTF NOW FLOYD WILL GIDP
