  1. Muuuch more solid, sustained effort last night. Keep doing this and not much else will matter: the Preds will be down to hoping for lucky bounces and bad ref calls.
  2. That quick whistle was BS man.
  3. I feel like we need more than a goal lead. Yes, they may have played well but failure to score can mean the difference between winning and going home after losing the opening series.
  4. I can't believe we missed that open net. That's how it appears to go for us right now. Rinne's good but we're not taking advantage when we get a big chance.
  5. Yeah that's all he's got though. Unless he finds something else it would be Marshall every day.
  6. Hooray another lead blown late. Wonderful habit you're establishing for the season, Cubs. Glad I didn't watch this one.
  7. Sunday is very important now. I'm expecting to see a much better performance from this club.
  8. LOL. About time someone else commits the gaff.
  9. Oh come on, those are outside you bozo.
  10. Why are they busting Sori inside? That was dumb. Run(s) scored. Thank God for stupidity!
  11. Since mid-october? LOL, that's basically the beginning of the season. Delusional.
  12. Oh, OK. I thought it was just random times when he wasn't around.
  13. You just know something happened that Ron didn't like. Could be nothing. Could something actually bad.
  14. I guess "or else" was supposed to mean "or else you become a bench player." Doubtful. I also heard Kaplan say last night he expects Soriano will be released in the next 12 months. I found that to be an incredibly wild statement to make. Ricketts is really going to eat $72 million dollars?
  15. It's called playing the percentages. It's what smart managers do to win ballgames. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Wr6RQ1OrNEQ/SoOnaFWucLI/AAAAAAAAA0g/6VHHTFVLe08/s400/Mr.Burns.baseball.jpg But seriously, I give the Cubs credit that they are trying to do what is best for the team and not handling Soriano with kid gloves. Of course, but that doesn't really answer his question. Sure Lou should make the right call to win ballgames, but that doesn't mean it doesn't say anything about Soriano and his contract, which is the (ever continuing) point when it comes to Fonz.
  16. There are. Lou doesn't know how to use them. Caridad, for example, would be very useful when our starter has just given up a slam and we're now down by 10.
  17. Coming through late under pressure. Man, that's fun.
  18. I feel stupid for not saying it before the season: I definitely felt like Marmol would be less wild in the closer role.
