    as if it wasn't bad enough that he blew the game and constantly whined about pitches that WEREN'T strikes.... he has to run his mouth some more after the game. those weren't strikes, you goon. It'd be one thing if the umpire simply didn't call any of those pitches strikes, but the ump actually was pretty inconsistent with his outside corner with right handed hitters. A handful of those were actually called strikes and a few of the closer ones were called balls. Caridad was clearly pissed off about it on the mound. Now, granted, whoever kept calling for the fastball on the outside corner should have taken the hint. Any time he threw a fastball against a RHP, it went to that spot. Stubbs picked up on that and waited for the FB on the outer half, which he inevitably got. It would have been nice to see Caridad move that pitch around the plate, but for whatever reason, that didn't happen. It was like watching Kyle Farnsworth versus Julio Franco all over again. Unfortunately, we don't know if that sequence was on Caridad, Hill, Rothschild, or someone else. It'd be nice to know who to blame for that.

    So, what should the Cubs do with the young guys in the bullpen who've had early struggles?

    Can VDN be fired immediately following this game?

    Kind of sucks that the NJ Nets are securely in the #1 spot in the Draft Lottery. Otherwise they'd have a good reason to lose.

    This is awesome.

    Apparently, it's okay for Courtney Lee to hug Derrick Rose on his way to the basket.

    There were a bunch of hard hit balls that went right to Cubs fielders, but Silva kept in the zone, worked fast, and didn't walk anyone. He looked halfway decent. He might have left because of an injury, but no one's quite sure.

    I don't think a random collection of Cubs fans on an internet forum have the ability to affect Cubs games by posting or not posting pictures of the Duke men's basketball team. They don't? Derrek Lee is a huge UNC fan.

    The Bulls are going down in flames. Awesome.

    There were rumors that the BCS was evaluating the MWC for a possible BCS auto-bid. If things shift around enough, the MWC could find themselves courting a number of teams that would really help their case.

    Did Soto miss the flight to Cincinnati? What was Chad Tracy doing there?
  13. Outshined_One
    Figures. Oh well.

    Neither team wants to win!

    OH MY GOD.

    Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.

    I have a feeling this board's going to explode regardless of what happens in Soriano's AB.

    Of course he did. He's one of the worst umpires in the game and seems to have it out for us. How did Bucknor cost us? He's at 3B. The only call he made against the Cubs' was Colvin's check swing strike.
  20. Outshined_One
    Seems Cordero's not getting that corner, either. GO LEE!
  21. Outshined_One
    Eat me, CB.
  22. Outshined_One
    The first two were called strikes, then I think his 6th or 7th one was. The ump was inconsistent with that corner. That said, he needs to learn how to actually locate it in other spots when he's not getting that call.
  23. Outshined_One
    YOU ARE NOT GETTING THAT CORNER. STOP IT.
  24. Outshined_One
    Looked like he might have been injured. And Votto Ks again. :-))
  25. Outshined_One
    He kept pounding the same freaking spot with his fb over and over again. He did not move it around and his offspeed stuff was missing badly. He's young and he'll learn, but whoever called that sequence is an idiot.
