    I can relate. I expect to win the Powerball every Wednesday and Saturday. The Cubs chances of getting to 500 are about the same as my odds of winning that jackpot. In fact, my odds may be a little better. I started this thread to point out the date that .500 could be achieved if just winning the up coming series, not every game for 16 games. Right now if we win tomorrow we win the Cleveland series on the way to Minnisota. Just a series win after series win will get us there by Aug 2nd. It's not likely but possible. Just saying. I hear ya. I'm reserving my optimism more for next season at this point though. Kinda waiting to see if there will be any kind of shakeup in the management of this club, and also waiting to see if Hendry can do anything positive at the deadline. Right now I'm not sure how positive it would really be to get back to .500. It doesn't accomplish anything for this year, and it greatly increases the chance Baker will be back----which to me isn't all that great a proposition. Me too. I'm saving all my optimism for November-March, when I'll be saying the Cubs can win the division.

    I took an Exercize Biology: Sociology of Sport class a couple quarters ago. We were talking about games that are sports and others that are spectacles. The WWE obviously fell in the spectacle category but he said that the NBA is closer to falling into that category than the other "major" sports. I agreed with him then and do even more so now. The NBA knows it has officiating problems and does nothing to fix them. Stern rules as a dictator anyway. If he wanted a league with integrity, he could have one. It's just not one of his priorities. It's hard to create a league of integrity when you have none yourself.

    At least you have time to focus on the Cubs now. *ducks* I wonder when Cowboys training camp begins.....

    Hell, I might could be MVP if the refs called that way for me too.
  6. vance_the_cubs_fan
    And they should. How anyone could defend that horrid officiating, I don't know.

    This could be used as a training video on how the refs can totally influence the outcome of a series.

    I hate David Stern. Why I bother caring about the NBA is beyond me.

    hmmm.

    Me too.

    These officials have been completely horrible throughout. It's freaking ridiculous.
  13. vance_the_cubs_fan
    The NBA is just a rung above the WWE as far as legitimacy goes.
  14. vance_the_cubs_fan
    That's a cheap foul!
  15. vance_the_cubs_fan
    I think you're right. :evil:

    Tie game! Go Mavs!

    How is that not a foul on Mourning? Why can the Heat throw people to the ground without a foul being called?
  19. vance_the_cubs_fan
    We suck.

    Moore is fast becoming one of my favorite Cub prospects.

    And everyone hates it when their wood doesn't feel just right.

    Dallas kicking some ass early!
  23. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Yep...and people thought we were on the march to .500. Not this year, kiddos!
  24. vance_the_cubs_fan
    Eyre into pitch.

    Murton swung at ball four. :cry:
