wwilliams can hit

big zone today :?

low strikes, yeesh

i hope thats not how he bases lineup decisions

Is this turning into a running gag? :lol: What? Typing dominate instead of dominant. What's the difference? Grammar. "Dominate" is a verb. "Dominant" is an adjective. The initial post used "dominate" as an adjective. I know. I'm just playing around. I like to piss off grammar snobs. Good. Who cares if people get words wrong. why point out other's faults like that? I actually find it very rude. i liken it to pointing out when someone has their fly open.

maybe i'm just used to dusty, but i dont see a change being made after 1 start. its not like gooz has been lights out out of the pen.

uggh. dont suck cotts

how unclutch is a first inning homer? hit them when they count. he's just padding his stats.

6.1 IP, 5 ER, 8 H, 2 BB, 3 K, 1 HR, and the loss. :(

there they were again!!

he's given up a few warning track outs. its ok now, but in wrigley...

derosa is hitting the ball hard. wtg blanco

i think this team will score runs, if its above 50 degrees.

crap

sori's had at least 1 other cheap double like that. which is ok by me.

man i wish i was in earshot to hear what z is saying. with interpreter

check out the indians game. up 4-0 in the top of the 5th, the mariners have the bases loaded with 2 outs. they've been playing with some snow, now there in a blizzard delay. the indians mngr was fighting to keep the game going, needingn 1 out for a W.

And for those that don't live near an L stop? Screw them right, I mean they can't possibly be Cubs fans right? :roll: Where did I mention a prairie? Soldier Field is close to the L, close the two highways, close to a major road for buses and cabs (LakeShore Drive). Have you ever tried to drive to or from a Bears game? It's a nightmare. Also Soldier field is not close to any L stops. It's a hike from the nearest one. Yes and it's close to the Roosevelt stop on the redline. Take a cab or walk from there. I have driven to Bears games, as well as taken the L and buses. I'll admit, none are perfect but at least they are options. With Wrigley, the only viable options are taking the L or driving and parking at a remote lot (which are free and have a free shuttle by the way which is fantastic). They tried to build a remote lot closer to the park and the neighborhood said "No". Buses and cabs are horrible after games. Has anyone here been to a game at BankOne? Or Safeco? Or Turner? All have very good access to public transportation. Not to mention all of the fan/family friendly aspects that I mentioned about the Cell, shorter lines, better statistics, better food, better walkways, better sight lines..... just went to kaufman field the other day. its a suburban park, and despite low attendance, getting out is always a challenge. the only option is driving, buses and cabs are available but not popular. everyone heading though a handful of exits towards the same highway. in short, there is probably not a less efficient way to get people to and from the stadium. what i liked about wrigley is that if you're willing to walk 15 minutes or so, you can park easily and get out through side streets with minimal headache. the drivers benefit from so many fans using the L. also, if you wait an hour or so after a game, the L is alot less crowded. if you move the cubs to the burbs, it will be worse than kaufman due to more people and less ways to enter and leave the area, imho.

the jean shorts are fantastic. Gotta love how his shirt appears to be tied through a loop on his jean shorts. And is that a bag of candy in his back right pocket? haha. the guy with the shirt on is tripping over himself in an effort to get away.
