  1. Dempster in the 7th inning? Dusty must have reached his "I'm going to be fired anyway so what the hell, I'm putting Dempster in."
  2. 6 walks tonight. Who are these guys and what have they done with the Cubs I'm used to seeing? This especially goes for Freddie Bynum who has reached base 4 times tonight.
  3. So are the Cubs going to announce that Hill will have his next start pushed back on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday?
  4. 120 pitches...are you kidding me? TAKE HILL OUT!!!
  5. Dusty better have somebody up in the pen in case Hill falls apart this inning. He had 98 pitches through the 5th inning. No need to run up his pitch count in a 7 run game.
  6. I would definately want Pierre over DLee or ARam. Without question.
  7. Yeah, it was cool to see the fans waving all of those flags.
  8. Hopefully the Cubs will get 3 less wins than the Royals the rest of the way as well as less wins than the Devil Rays and Pirates.
  9. http://crawlyscubs.mlblogs.com/photos/uncategorized/zambrano_bat.jpg
  10. I'll be flipping back between this game and MNF.
  11. What if it was Ditka vs the Cubs.
  12. I looked at the results and I have myself at 5-9 right now and not 4-10. I bolded the games I got correct. If I missed something, please correct me. And I would be in favor of getting universal lines each week. It doesn't matter where it's from as long as we are all basing our picks off of the same spreads.
  13. Wow, I didn't realize he was 30 years old already. He's put up solid numbers for a SS, last year was a great year for him. He's a career .300/.343/.795 and is sitting at .311/.352/.805 this year. I think it would take a little more than Marshall and Izturis, but it might be worth looking into. I've always been a Michael Young fan as well but didn't know/think he was 30 years old.
  14. I know there were some photoshopped pictures with brooms in there instead of Barrett's bat that people posted back when the sweep happened. Don't know who posted them though.
  15. I would love to see Maddux make one more start at Wrigley as well.
  16. Bonds hit 73.
  17. They play again tomorrow. Hill vs. Smoltz And tomorrow will be the same result. It will end in another season sweep to another team. We've got Kansas City in our sights.
  18. ND didn't beat any good teams last year and we don't know how good Penn State and Michigan will end up being this year. You can't give a team credit for winning a game early in the season against a highly ranked team if that team ends up having an average year that year. It's just like with Pittsburgh and Michigan last year. Those games looked like big victories and many people continued to mention that Notre Dame beat Michigan when they were ranked #3 in the nation and they beat a ranked Pittsburgh team. Neither of those teams ended up being very good last year so why should ND get credit for beating a good team when said team ends up being no more than an average team. If Penn State finishes the year 5-6, it's obvious that ND's victory over them wasn't actually that impressive. I would argue that Notre Dame's victory over PSU is still pretty impressive even if they finish 5-6, just not as impressive. It doesn't get much more one-sided than 41-3. So, how impressive is Auburn's win over Miss St or LSU's over Arizona? We don't know. What if Arizona finishes 4-7 and Penn State finishes 5-6? Which team's victory was more impressive? That's why it's stupid to start clamoring about strenght of schedule after two [expletive] games! Couldn't agree more.
  19. I always, always suck in the early season, then always figure things out and end up slightly above .500 for the season. I don't really get it. It's much harder to tell what teams are good early in the season. I imagine most people follow the same trend you do. I usually do the same thing as well and I'll agree with Banedon on the reason why.
  20. I am suprised that Gameday is broadcasting from the USC-Nebraska game instead of the LSU-Auburn game. They must not have received the memo that Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart don't play for USC anymore.
  21. Bringing up the rear. Hey, somebody's got to do it. Now I have one more thing in common with the Cubs.
