  1. Wow, he straight told him to "shut the hell up." I hate umps that get power trips.
  2. Sut: I like this guy, you can win with him, he's proven that in the past. Buuuuut didn't he prove that you can lose with him too? I like Rick Sutcliffe, but sometimes he makes it really tough to do so.
  3. I like listening to other announcers, unless it's Joe Morgan, so I'm going with ESPN... until they reference Bartman. Then I'll switch over. So I'll be switching over with two down in the top of the first.
  4. Soto hitting 7th? Good Lord. I almost want to root for Edmonds to fail miserably in every at bat just to get him off the team ASAP.
  5. Demp's pitching himself towards a nice contract this offseason.
  6. Bob nailed it yesterday during the game. Soriano has a great arm, but outside of that he's a terrible defender. Why did he become an outfielder in the first place? I can't recall.
  7. The Cubs haven't had a losing streak longer than two games this year. I hope that I can still say that this evening.
  8. Why would you want to watch that game again?
  9. Wow, is his WHIP really only 1.06? Damn, that's amazing!
  10. Considering that that play cost us a win, yeah, I'd say it was pretty important.
  11. One thing I think we can all agree on is that Jim Edmonds is entirely washed up. Get him out of here.
  12. Even so, you'd surely have to admit that he's not responsible for the Cubs losing, right? Only not winning in the 9th. If that play would have resulted in the winning run scoring, then I'd say he's responsible for them losing. But that didn't happen so I don't entirely blame him for the loss. I do entirely blame him for not winning though. If that makes any sense.
  13. If Marmol had struck him out, the Cubs would have won. Is the loss also entirely on him? Does nothing before that play matter? If not, how could the Cubs have the lead? A full game consists on more than 1 play. Again, I'm not saying they offset. I'm saying Soriano still came out ahead. What's your point then, that Soriano shouldn't be blamed for the loss? I see your logic, I just don't think it makes any sense. To me it's very simple... if he catches a routine fly ball, the game is over. It's his fault that the Cubs didn't win. No, it's not his fault the Cubs didn't win. There was more of the game to be played after the dropped popout. He made a play that greatly decreased the Cubs chances of winning. If he catches the ball, the Cubs win. So yes, he is directly responsible for them not winning.

  15. Come on Vance. You know better. What's wrong with saying the poopybirds?
  16. Saying it's okay that Soriano dropped the ball because he hit the HR doesn't make sense. He's supposed to get hits and drive runners in. You can't say that because he did his job at the plate, it offsets his play in the 9th. If Soriano catches the ball the Cubs win. He didn't, and they didn't. This loss is entirely on him.
  17. Soriano is such an aggravating player.
  18. Len sounded the complete opposite of what I would expect him to on that last out.
  19. Best offense is baseball. Do I have to mention this again? It's really not true at all, but go ahead. Seriously. What's that even based on? Houston is far from the best offense in baseball.
  20. Luis freaking Rivas? Who the hell is this guy? And fireworks? Hahaha, wow.
  21. It was either going to be a homer or a fly out, so hustling wasn't really important on that play.
