  1. Oh c'mon Holla to PH? Is Murton even at the game or did Dusty tie him up in the hotel room.
  2. Agreed. That was a great opportunity to have a big inning, no reason not to have someone as hot as Murton up there. But then again, how hot can you be if you haven't faced live pitching in 3-4 days.
  3. I still don't understand why Murton couldn't pinch hit. So what if he's a righty
  4. Somewhere, Matt Murton's mother sobs quietly
  5. We will score (contradicting the board I bet)
  6. Here is a fun fact of the Cubs offensive woes. The Cubs have hit just 1 home run in their last 7 games, which was Henry Blanco's HR in the second game of the Arizona series
  7. Wait, last nights win inspired confidence in you??? I wanna how how optimistic you are when the Cubs actually play well ;)
  8. The slaughter rule in baseball is 3 runs right? They can't expect a team to get that many runs in one game
  9. If I ever want to show my kids what it was like to be a fan of the Cubs in the mid-naughts, I'd show them a tape of this inning.
  10. How could they score a run if it was just a fly ball to the OF? From watching Cubs baseball I have no clue how that is allowed
  11. *sigh* another fundamental blunder. What else is new?
  12. Now that you guys mention it, it also seems like Lee hasn't been getting to balls he normally gets to. Either his timing is off or he has to make his dive slower to compensate for the injury
  13. You know that every player slumps at some point in the season right? Even Pujols.

    If

    Only two years? I've been waiting for the if's to turn into reality all my life. This rendition I've been waiting 2 years for. I don't recall saying things like IF Mel Rojas can pitch way over his head and IF Brian McRae can take steroids and IF Sammy Sosa could stop striking out 200 times in a season and IF Anthony Young could win 20 games in a row instead of losing 20 and IF Amaury Telemaco can become our ace we can finish in third ;)
  15. Gotta start havin more babies. Excuse me if I have no sympathy for Rob Mackowiak
  16. I don't think he's leading in OBP anymore, any Cabs and Pujols are breathing down his neck for AVG. Stupid prolonged slump we've all expected

    If

    I've been waiting for the if's to turn into reality for 2 years now....don't blame me for not holding my breath
  18. I was about to say.... I hate the guy no matter how cool he might be
  19. He must know his time is almost up with starting SS and is completely betraying "Dusty Ball" philosophy
  20. Probably his Pirates helmet and he wanted to keep it.. thus he had it re-painted... (Just a guess?) The C on the Cubs helmet isnt painted on, its actually applied on seperately. Yea, I'm pretty sure it's just a sticker... (or something like that) So he probably kept his Pirates helmet, had it painted blue/red, and hasnt gotten the sticker yet? I dunno. It seems unlikely to me that he'd go to all that trouble of painting it...especially with the two-tone paint job for the away helmet and all that. Of course, you never know with baseball players and their superstitions. My guess is that he just got a brand new helmet which may have been packaged with the sticker (or not) and he just forgot to put the sticker on...or didn't want to for some reason... or who knows... LOL Suspend him for violation of uniform policy
  21. We found out your presence valued highly by certain hall of famers
  22. Was he annoying when he hit the game winner the other day? Yeah he kept rubbing it in while making funny noises in in his postgame interview
  23. 2 outs, Lee hit, out. Our offense has changed how? Ahh, Padilla threw more then 5 pitches
