    Well, allegiance is a big factor, but you can't just right off the heat. Crowds at baseball games are always partly comprised of casual fans or people that just want to experience something new. When you step outside and you're immediately sweating and miserable, you're not going to want to go outside unless it's for something you absolutely love. I live in Florida and I'll never be used to the heat. It's almost impossible to have fun when it's as hot as it was today. When the Cubs played in Miami a few weeks ago I only ended up going to the Saturday night game. I was planning on going to the Sunday day game but thought better of it when I stepped outside that day. My friends still went and said it was the most miserable they've ever been at a baseball game and didn't even enjoy the win.

    We could lose Z for his career and I'd still do the deal.

    Becuase we all hope that he will be alright. By the way, there are cubs' fans in Taiwan who have watched the Cubs for 5 years or longer and are still watching and caring about the Cubs, althrough many of them even haven't had a chance to come see a Cubs' game in person. They watch them on MLB.TV. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-080821-chicago-cubs-cincinnati-reds,0,3570223.story?track=rss I'm confused. So those people are just guessing it was a dentist appointment?

    I didn't think he loafed on that play tonight. Then why wasn't he at second base?

    I can't believe I wasted my time watching this game when Mega Man was just released on the Wii virtual console

    The approach against Wold has been absolutely pathetic. He's still painting the outside corner and they're still trying to pull everything.

    Well then Wolf will go 9 and there will be no fake rally Did Wolf really pitch the 8th? I turned that trash off

    It's a "crappy" start according to some. At the time it was WHAT?!? Please explain because this makes no sense to me When I said it was crappy, it was in the 5th inning. Obviously I didn't expect him to pitch 2 more scoreless.

    Not being used against lefties, who own him. They do? Minor league career vs RHP- 0.296 0.358 0.516 0.874 Minor league career vs LHP- 0.293 0.338 0.509 0.847

    It's a "crappy" start according to some. At the time it was At the time it was 3 runs in 5 which I still don't see as crappy. One inning more without a run is a QS and two more and it's probably considered a pretty good start. For Dempster that is not that hard to do as he proved here tonight. You can't call a start crappy because he gives up 3 runs in 5 or if he gives up 1 run in in the first if the man is still pitching. Why are you citing quality starts? One of the most useless stats in baseball. 3 runs in 5 innings is crappy any way you slice it.

    Pretty sad that Casey McGehee is out best RH option off the bench, especially after rosters have expanded.

    Wold has been painting the outside corner all night and the Cubs keep trying to pull everything out of the park. Look at the spray chart someone posted.

    panic responses are a sign of a weak will and a generally pessimistic outlook on lifeIf I was a fan of another team without a dog in the fight I would find this board HILARIOUS right now. It is hilarious. I know. People need to realize we've already clinched a playoff spot and losses don't matter right now. I love how you go off like this in every game thread and then at the end admit how ridiculous you were being and how in other parts of the forum you admit how ridiculous you are in the game threads, and yet, despite being aware of this behavior, you can't control yourself. I'm not being ridiculous right. You're being ridiculous for acting as though we've clinched and these losses are nothing.

    Sorry if I'm not confident with Ryan Dempster as a possible number 2 starter. Michael Bourn on base 3 times? Give me a break.
