Not necessarily so.... just because the Tribune may want something doesn't mean they're going to get it, or even that they're entitled to. Similarly, if 23 of 30 owners don't approve the sale to the highest bidder, this could not be construed as Tribune Co failing in their fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders.

And it is.... CUBS' magic numbers: Milwaukee 15 St. Louis 11 Cincinnati 8 Pittsburgh 6 Houston 4

Who the eff is that? Well... outside of the fact that I misspelled his last name..... with is Rivera... he's a backup catcher.

Mike (who's he) Rviera with a 2 run homer for the Brewers in the bottom of the 9th...... now 6-5 Reds.

Nah.... got it programmed in as a macro !! :wink:

CUBS WIN !! CUBS WIN !! CUBS WIN !! http://njsr.org/pics/albums/userpics/10036/Cubs%20W%20Flag.jpg

CUBS are 9-28 when the opponent hits at least 2 HRs.... 66-43 when they don't Go CUBS !!

all on a 3 run shot by Pujols, or was that extras? I think that one was in the 10th.

Cardinals have only scored 3 ninth innning runs off the CUBS all year !! Go CUBS !!

TONY LaRUSSA IS A GENIUS !!!

Damned shame Zambrano can't bunt.

Who would have thought back in May that anybody would intentionally walk Jacque ????

CUBS are 68-3 when they lead after 8 innings Go CUBS !!

If Zambrano doesn't come out for the 9th..... it won't be Marmol taking his place, it'll be Dempster. I know but I would much rather see Marmol face Pujols then Dempster. I realize that.... but that was never an option. But it was never an option before the game because Marmol is unavailable tonight because of pitching 2 innings last night when he didnt need to. Personally, I let Z finish this game, and worry about what happens on Tues, on Tues. You get this win first. I'm suggesting that it doesn't matter how much Marmol has or hasn't pitched recently. In that situation, 1 run lead in 9th with Pujols up, Lou ain't gonna use Marmol. It was never an option.

If Zambrano doesn't come out for the 9th..... it won't be Marmol taking his place, it'll be Dempster. I know but I would much rather see Marmol face Pujols then Dempster. I realize that.... but that was never an option.

If Zambrano doesn't come out for the 9th..... it won't be Marmol taking his place, it'll be Dempster.

CUBS are 48-23 when their pitchers average 15 pitches per inning or less..... 27-48 when they don't Go CUBS !!!

CUBS are 64-6 when they lead after 7 innings Go CUBS !!

Payback for Wednesday night from the baseball Gods ???

CUBS have hit at least 1 HR in 6 consecutive games (3-2) Go CUBS !!
