I think it's a bit of a overreaction. I haven't posted anime in months, I think it's fair to post one pic in my own game thread before the game starts. It's not like I'll be posting it frequently during the game. Lemme get this straight..... 4 different mods, at different times, told you not to post any anime in game threads, and, apparently, you went ahead and did it anyway. Now you have the testicular fortitude to sit there and say we're overreacting and it's not fair ???????? Don't cause me to revisit this situation.

What? Clubbin' baby seals is what you always threatened to do when you didn't get what you wanted. I know your memory isn't that short !!!

3.84 P/PA

CT.... if the CUBS don't score next inning, I want you to go club some baby seals or something, eh?

UP to 3.77 P/PA now. How..... average.

Two baserunners in the same inning ???? Is there no limit to the offensive prowess of this CUBS team ??

With Cy Wainright on the mound, it's almost a foregone conclusion, no?

By all merits that was a triple if anyone else was running :-D Yeah, and all that, plus $1.69, will buy you coffee down at the Flying J. :wink:

CUBS are 19-13 when they hit at least one double.... 2-4 when they don't Go CUBS !!

CUBS are 13-5 when they score first in the game.... 8-12 when they don't CUBS are 10-2 when they score in the first inning.... 11-15 when they don't CUBS are 14-11 when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 7-6 when they do CUBS are 11-10 when they GIDP.... 10-7 when they don't CUBS are 2-11 when they commit one or more errors.... 19-6 when they don't CUBS are 2-2 when the opponent triples.... 19-15 when they don't CUBS are 6-3 when the opponent hits at least 2 HRs.... 15-14 when they don't Go CUBS !! Is it over yet ??

I assure you there is nothing explosive about the CUBS right now !!!

Damn !! The sox finally scored. :evil:

I was at that game, too! I was at a CUBS game when they ran up 20 runs against the Dodgers..... but it wasn't 05 May....... it was 20 May 1967!!! CUBS win 20-3 behind Kenny Holtzman making his last start before going on active duty with the Illinois National Guard. Oh man I'm young! Uh huh !
