  1. I think Lackey's ugly mug coming at you gets more outs than his pitches.
  2. I'm looking forward to more Bryant and his Bryant-ness
  3. This is the kind of umps that I would expect in a AA game. I'm sure they're having games called worse, but right now I can't think of any.

  5. Strop is arguably a top 5 reliever in Cubs history and you see him horsefeathers on all the time. It's crazy. 5th year as a Cub. 5th year with a sub-3 ERA. I don't argue facts. Can you explain why I feel uncomfortable every time he pitches? Other than the fact that I tend to be a neurotic mess when I watch the Cubs?
  6. I'll take it. That could have been much worse. Davies is out. Let's see about that Brewer BP
  7. Strop does nothing to help himself. Ever. He threw strikes that were not called strikes. I've been complaining about the Umps all game, but he's all over the place.
  8. Seventh-inning and only 70 pitches for Davies. That's not what I wanted to see tonight.
  9. Who is this ump? He's missing easy calls for both teams
  10. Crew announcers essentially begging fans not to watch them tomorrow
  11. You folks keep saying the Brewers are not good. They are playing great baseball right now, when it counts. What else matters? There's not 3 months of long term trending left to consider. If they play like this for another 10 games or so they are probably in the playoffs, either by a wild card or divisional championship. Yeah, unlike these slob Cubs, only winning 7 in a row. What a bunch of gutless chocking dogs! They just don't care enough.
  12. I assumed we'd be going in up 3.5 at least. Going in up 2.5, we really need to take 3 of 4. A split is OK but anything worse and I'll be worried. The Brewers are not good, im ready to sweep them away. You folks keep saying the Brewers are not good. They are playing great baseball right now, when it counts. What else matters?

  13. Preferably the entire coach/GM regime is canned before Mitch sees the field. Viva la Glennon.
  14. screw them, they suck and don't deserve it seems quite a few notches above (below?) the slightest bit angry. I will definitely be the slightest bit angry if they don't make the playoffs this year. But I can't imagine saying or thinking something along the lines of they don't deserve it, when speaking about this group of players that actually just won the world series 11 months ago. You're a better man than me because I'll be pissed off. This seems like quibbling over technicalities. We'll all be angry if they don't pull through. One person will flip out a little more than the next. Such is life.
  15. Wait. Sucks? Yes, going into an off day on an L sucks. It's a net + It's not just an L. It's a sweep at home by the team chasing them. They need a day off.
