    Geez, another walk.... Please Z, I really want to love you but your making it hard with your headcase pitching...
  2. UMFan83
    Awesome, I did make the sig!

    are you saying he's sucked? I'm saying hes walked 3 batters and thrown 90 pitches in 5 innings. No he hasn't sucked, but it does continue his overall trend of walking batters and not making it to the 7th inning, things that you expect your ace to do.
  4. UMFan83
    Z has really gotta snap out of this. We really need him to pitch more then 6 innings a start. Its hard to be a badass when you suck.
  5. UMFan83
    The way the Cubs are hitting, thats game.
  6. UMFan83
    Really worried about Z's walk rate this year... if he wasn't as unhittable and under ideal conditions tonight, we could be in big trouble.

    Anyone else worried about the Astros this year? Their offense has been rather suprising, and they don't seem to be missing Clemens much in their rotation...the Central is really bothering me considering the Astros have had their best start in history, the Cardinals are 8-2 in games that arent against the Cubs, and the Brewers have been hanging around.
  8. UMFan83
    Thats a long game. Do you think the PawSox would have scored in the bottom of the 9th to tie it if they knew they'd have to play another 24 innings? :)

    From the Trib: First it was the last week of April, then it was first week of May, now its speculated to be the second week of May. Slowly the time table goes further and further away. Makes me wonder if, even with the knee setback, he could have been ready much earlier if he wasn't pitching in a futile attempt to finish .500 last year.

    I think the Cubs should give him all the leeway he wants to take his time considering they almost cost him his career by coming back to pitch that playoff game in 98. It did cost him his best pitch as well. Some say it would have happened anyway, but it sure didn't help pitching him that game. For the record though, as an impressionable 15 year old, I really wanted him to pitch that game too.

    :lol: I won, I better not get mine deleted

    You lose!

    Oh my...that was unbelievable.

    This is so vintage Maddux. If he goes all 9, I am digging up an old "Countdown til Maddux Option Vests" thread.

    From the very early look of things, the Cubs might end up Tomkowned.
  17. UMFan83
    simple solution..give up basketball :P Tried. Didn't work. I gave it up but came back each time they won. :? when was the last time that happened? :wink: actually when i lived in san antonio i became a spurs fan, only local pro sport team....but now that im not there i couldnt give 2 shakes of my **** about the NBA Be a Bulls fans, it amazingly entertaining.
  18. UMFan83
    OT comment: Dammit I hate Bulls games. I always plan to do my HW after the games, but they always end up being so close that I build up tension throughout the game, then when they win or lose, I have to deal with a cool off period that lasts about 15-30 minutes before I can work on HW. And now I have the Cubs game starting immediately after. Ugh, I need a 40 hour day or something.

    When he tests negative for steroids. Oooo a steroids joke, I am so fresh.
  20. UMFan83
    I used to say the same in college. Get work done by 10 or 11, watch Cubs game (drink), go to bed, wake up for 11 am class. Can't say I like going to bed by the 3rd inning and waking up the next day to see a boxscore... For me more like, get out of class at 5, frantically do HW from 5-6, watch Bulls game from 6-8:30, frantically do more HW from 8:30-9:00, watch Cubs game (drink), then try to do HW buzzed from 12-2, wake up at 8 on six hours sleep.

    Thats dumb for 3 reasons: 1) We are already going to have a top 4 draft pick anyways 2) This is a very shallow draft 3) Provided we didn't win the lottery (and being one of the best teams left out, we'd have less then a 3% chance of winning) or draft pick would be 14-15. Having clinched the playoffs, our draft pick "plummets" to 16. Not worth tanking it for.

    The 12 man staff is back in full force
  23. UMFan83
    Its to the point where I just really hope he turns it around, I kinda feel bad for the guy for whatever reason.
  24. UMFan83
    Finally....years of making late breaks on fly balls and senseless diving have taken a toll on Edmonds.
  25. UMFan83
    Oh well, I could probably think off the top of my head 30 calls that didn't go the Bulls way this year. And I'm sure I could think of 30 more that did go their way. It all evens out.
