  1. Team USA loses 1-0. USA had a great shot in stoppage time, but the kick hooked juuuuuust wide right.
  2. Len and Bob dropped the ball when talking about stretching Kerry out for another inning. Since then he's thrown 14 pitches, walked a batter and gave up a 2 run HR
  3. Not really...went straight to that 424 area in CF. Probably 15 feet short
  4. Time for Kerry to help his own cause!
  5. I love this team. Never ever disapoints me
  6. If Kerry was on the Marlins, 19 pitches would put him in the third inning
  7. He's not, that was way overblown. He's making his 4th start of the spring
  8. Surely you've watched us pitch at least 1 inning this year
  9. right on pace with the rest of the staff
  10. Woah guys, did you know Kerry Wood still pitches for us??
  11. 8 Pierre - 2 pitches Hairston - 4 pitches Walker - 3 pitches
  12. Everytime I say "Tomorrow will be better", a 9 pitch first inning snaps me back to reality.
  13. It's obvious why the Red Sox were so hesitant to get rid of him the last 2-3 years. Then again, I don't know what they were thinking with Casey Fossum.
  14. You mean that he should be more "positive" regarding his coverage of the Cubs? :roll: The same BS that the Cubs management tried to persuade Paul Sullivan with? :roll: The Cubs should replace Paul Sullivan with this guy: http://dunamai.com/Humor/BagdadBob/images/bagdad_bob_large.gif "Have no fear, my friends! The Cubs are just lulling the opposition into a false sense of security! Things will all get better! Dusty Baker and Jim Hendry are the right people to lead this team!" So thats what Carrie Muskat looks like
  15. I don't know, thats what we should all ask ourselves as Cubs fans :lol:
  16. Jordan never got a major league AB, much less a major league hit. You might be talking about that Cubs/Sox exhibition, if so obviously he got a double off the Cubs. Don't remember which pitcher though.
  17. Yeah your right we don't deserve it. Those hard working players deserve it. And if they don't get it, all they have to look forward to is their millions of dollars and national fame. Poor them, I feel so selfish looking at my bank account and realizing all the money I put into this team. I deserve NOTHING Im sorry but you dont. You arent signed by contract to root for this team. You arent drug through years of minor league fandom just to get a shot at big league fandom. Yea I was a big league fan for 21 days. The best 21 days of my life. The fans have exploding cheers, and other unbelieveable stuff. You know you get to spent 6 bucks on a hot dog in the show? And the bleachers... all long and no splinters. :roll: There are no pro sports if there are no fans. Tell me if these same players put all this passion and hard work into their game if the result is playing baseball at some YMCA for no money. The answer is that they won't. They'd be doing something else to make money. They work hard so they can play in front of fans. Fans who pay money and ensure they make millions. The fans inherently invest in the team so they can be rewarded with entertainment at first and eventually seeing their favorite team win a championship. The fans deserve it as much and likely more then the players. Dont agree with you at all but will make the offer to buy you a beer next time I am in Chicago, Cubs fan to Cubs fan. Sounds good. I figured it was one of those arguments where we'd have to agree to disagree anyways :)
  18. BTW, which Bears were watching?

  20. Whats even funnier is when they were playing the Cubs they had won like 14 of 15 or something. Since they played the Cubs, if they lose this one they will fall to 1-6 PC (post Cubs)
