  1. ok so its 2:33 am here in Paris. I am scared to go to sleep because I have a feeling that when I wake up the Cubs will be in second. What do I do?
  2. I leave for Europe for 5 days and the Cubs piss away a 2.5 game lead?
  3. I I cant believe it took you 4 pages to respond lol I'm in London...its 2AM here. I watched the game on NASN. Takes time to relay this stuff :)
  4. This is what I have to say to Z. Thinking about ourselves? A) what the hell does that mean? B) do you not pay attention to what goes on in front of you? do you not see what the circumstances were for other people that got booed? do you think that 4 years of great stuff you are off the hook, that you can get away with complete garbage performances during the stretch run? did you not see Sammy Sosa? I'm sorry that Cubs fans are boo'ing you but you have to realize that we've been 99 freaking years without a title. it's not like you've had 1-2 starts where you've been bad. You've had 29 starts and you've given up 4 ER or more in 11 of them. Thats not good. Figure out what the hell is going on and fix it. You sure as heck make a hell of a lot of money. Figure this crap out and fix it.
  5. Concentrate on nailbating end of Cubs game or nailbiting end of Michigan game??
  6. One of these days, Soriano is going to hop too early and trip and fall and drop a fly ball :)
  7. The big ten network is the dumbest thing ever. Agreed. Hey, let's create a network that 95% of the fanbase will not be able to access the channel. They will eventually. But even when they do it will probably end up being a premium package that you have to pay more for.
  8. Bring Marmol in. If he get taxed have Howry finish the 8th
  9. BTW, I am ignoring all discussion of UM football in this thread
  10. I can't believe we hit a HR. Seriously, that was the last thing I expected. A double maybe, but a HR?
  11. Ugh I thought that was a double off the bat.
  12. Well it wouldnt make sense to deal for someone that won't be on the playoff roster
  13. ??? That's a terrible idea. Agreed. Hank is not a great player, and I understand how much people want Soto in there, but whats the point. We are paying him good money next year anyways. If anything, you should be hoping that the Cubs don't resign Kendall after the season and you have Soto and Blanco as your catchers.
  14. 22-7 right?
  15. Hilarious. Wow, hyperbole much? I'd like to know what conceivable futures is being mortgaged by moving the Great Scott Moore (ex-Detroit flotsam, failed 1st round pick) and the Great Rocky Cherry (28 years old with a 4+ AAA ERA). There is no universe where either of these guys is a difference maker for the Cubs. None. Get a grip. I already apologized for my bad wording. I didn't mean we are giving away great prospects. I just meant that we were giving up assets for a marginal pitcher that we don't need.
  16. Yay, Lou describes our rotation as "modified 6 man" rotation and that Steve will pitch against some teams.
  17. The Cardinals did. Struggled against bad teams like the Cubs and the likes of Mateo, Marmol, Walrond, and then went into the playoffs and beat up on the Peavys and Verlanders of baseball.
  18. You know Wuertz is a one inning pitcher essential in to be long relief today.
  19. I think it's possible if Soriano Lee and Ramirez starting pounding the ball and the guys around pick it up. That's a huge IF, even though it shouldn't be. I agree, but they haven't been able to do that all year. Lee had a hot (and powerless) April, Soriano has had hot stretches all year, and Ramirez has been consistantly above average but not great season. None of them have been close to realizing their ability for even a short period of time this year, save Soriano once or twice.
  20. Man I really hope we can make a Cardinals like run in the playoffs if we make it....but I just don't see it happening.
  21. I can't wait until our offense goes on a hot streak, this is getting ridiculous. I don't feel good about any of our hitters coming up to bat.
  22. Is it just me or is every single "PBP" application failing today.
