  1. Z can be so frustrating sometimes. He's a friggin' rollercoaster. Sooooo great when he's on, then sooooo maddening when he's not. I just hope there's not some remaining fallout from his shoulder pain earlier. I'm for keeping him rested and on a pitch count until the playoffs. I feel more comfortable with him rested up than "being sharp" from having a full start. Especially since we saw what he can do with 12 days off. Keep him rested, that's my view on it.
  2. It was not absolutely accurate. MLB has forced teams to play elsewhere in the past. These idiots thought it would have been perfectly fine to play 3 games after the regular season ends. They should have gotten out of there Friday, they have nobody but themselves (meaning players, coaches and owner) to blame. Yeah, I agree. They're whining and crying about not playing 3 entire games after the season -- something that would hurt the Cubs much more than them, because we have worked hard to put ourselves into a position where we can rest and be ready for the playoffs. Now we have to forego the rest so that the Stros can make up games in their ballpark when they were partly to blame anyway for not getting their plan in place soon enough? No way.
  3. A bigger issue than McNabb might be Philly's stunt-driven defense confusing and dominating our subpar blocking schemes. 24-10 Philly.
  4. I hate this team. Please keep winning things Cubs. It'll lessen the blow of having my heart ripped out every Sunday by this group.
  5. And the bitterness continues: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3601868 They're not gonna let it go. Never mind that they completely collapsed after they left Milwaukee. It's all because of those two games. Hey, if you're that fragile that two losses cause you to collapse in all your games afterwards too, then maybe you aren't a playoff team to begin with. Just a thought.
  6. Did any of you hear Vasher's comments? What a [expletive]. Yeah dumbass. And where did that get you? Oh and by the way, good job getting beat like a ragdoll by a midline receiver to set up the losing field goal. Anyone else just about ready to be done with Vasher? He's sucked all year. How many more weeks does he get pass because he's "coming back from injury?" The man can't cover, and he can't catch anymore either. Right now, he's pretty much a complete and total liability.
  7. Kyle threw a much better deep ball today. It Rashied Davis could catch, the Bears would have won in overtime. Inconsistency will dog him forever. And he earned the starting job because he was supposedly not going to piss away games on stupid interceptions. Yet that's exactly what he did today.
  8. Who's making excuses? At this point you're just baiting posters anyway. It was a blown call, and absolutely something that Tillman can't let happen at that point in the game. It sucks to have outplayed all three opponents to this point and be 1-2. Yeah the sad thing is it should never have gotten to the Tillman penalty point of the game. There were so many chances to end this game in our favor it was ridiculous. Although -- inability to close the deal, that's the hallmark of a team heading for a poor season. Even if they're playing well in some areas. Maybe Love should forego the game film this week and show tape of the '08 Cubs and this year's US Ryder Cup team. That's how you close the deal with a lead :mrgreen:
  9. Fixed.
  10. And that's the end. Nice job Bears. YOU SUCK!
  11. I can't believe how this game has turned out. How many chances did we have to win this thing? From Orton's boneheaded pick 6 to the latest stupid penalty that gave TB the ball back, this is just dumb football.
  12. What the hell? The league better look at that tape. That Buc player should be suspended for that crap. HOW MANY BREAKDOWNS ON 3rd AND LONG!?!?
  13. *drops head* I give up man. I just give up.
  14. This better not give them a first down.
  15. "How to blow a football game." By The 2008 Chicago Bears.
  16. WUT?!?
  17. Keep finding Lloyd.
  18. That was a fluky game on a couple levels. You're seeing the real Bears more right now. There are some good things happening on this team, but deficiencies and breakdowns are costing us badly. They could improve, but like this I would think we'll fall out of the playoff race fairly quickly.
  19. Even if they don't score here, they can play field position and get a 3 and out from us, then score. Their D is rested.
  20. Total breakdowns all over this D. How horrid. The game is about to be over. Way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, Bears!
  21. Weeeeak defense.
  22. Cubs are winning with scrubs. At least there's a team in this town that knows how to close the friggin' deal.
  23. LMAO. Tampa wins the toss.
  24. The D may make some good plays and get some stops, but down the stretch of games it isn't close to what it was.
