I see no way this club does anything of note in '07. This is the worst bullpen I think I've ever seen.

Yay for the great big, fat, SUCK.

That's 2 ball 4's Delgado has swung at. It's only a matter of time.

Here we go. Walk in the winning run. Just do it. You know you want to.

Sweet Lord Jesus please stop sucking.

LOL. Somehow the Cubs always find their way into the worst possible situation.

He's not pitching around anyone. He just can't throw strikes.

I feel as helpless as a mouse in a hurricane.

Here we go. You know it's coming.

LOL. Walks him without a fight. Ready for the great big blow?

It's all sudden death for the Mets now.

Alright that's it. Where can I put some money on a team blowing a lead during a ballgame? If I have to watch this club blow game after game, I'm gonna make some cash off it dammit.

Right on cue, the bullpen blows it. I need to start making some money on this crap. It's just too predictable.

Come on Rocky.

I struggle with it too. But it's growing.

Here comes the bullpen to blow it. But no additional runs will score, just the ones already on base. Just enough to lose, but not hurt their box score :roll:

I wouldn't be either. There's no way we hold this lead. There will need to be more runs, or we will lose. Wow, that's a great attitude....I think we hold the league with one of the hottest pitchers in baseball on the mound. What do you want? It's not like we've been shutting teams down after getting a lead all year, or anything.

I wouldn't be either. There's no way we hold this lead. There will need to be more runs, or we will lose.

DeRosa's junky.

No!

DeRosa's regressing. Badly.

Do NOT waste this chance.

I didn't until you just said it. What's up with that? We should play 3 more against the Royals dammit! 8-)

Well, not exactly Interleague schedules: Cubs: 3 vs CHW, 3 at CHW, 3 vs SEA, 3 at TEX Brewers: 3 vs MIN, 3 at MIN, 3 at TEX, 3 at DET, 3 vs KC Cardinals: 3 at DET, 3 vs LAA, 3 at KC, 3 vs KC, 3 at OAK Astros: 3 vs TEX, 3 at TEX, 3 at CHW, 3 vs OAK, 3 vs SEA, 3 at LAA Cubs: 9 vs mediocre (CHW, SEA), 3 vs bad (TEX) Brewers: 3 vs very good (DET), 6 vs mediocre (MIN), 6 vs bad (TEX, KC) Cardinals: 3 vs very good (DET), 6 vs good (LAA, OAK), 6 vs bad (KC) Astros: 6 vs good (LAA, OAK), 6 vs mediocre (CHW, SEA), 6 vs bad (TEX) Based on this, the Cardinals actually have the toughest interleague schedule with 9 games against good teams. Their schedule just appears easier because they have 6 against the worst AL team. The Cubs probably have the easiest schedule out of all the teams with no true good teams on their schedule. Note: Even though both are 2 games over .500, I classified the A's as good but the White Sox as mediocre because of each teams RS/RA differential. I don't mind classifying Oakland as good, but I still think the White Sox will finish at least a bit above .500 so I don't classify them as mediocre. The Cubs still have only 3 games against a truly bad AL team, compared with 6 for everyone else in the division. I understand the fascination with these natural rivalries, but I don't agree that KC should be St. Louis' natural rival. There's nothing there; KC hasn't been up to it since the '80s. They should be playing someone else, or rotating until they find an actual worthy rivalry.

It's not a matter of getting upset with Angelo. It's more the Bears, and Angelo, being upset with Snyder for the whole dog and pony show at the meetings. Ahhhh, gotcha.
