Chicago Cubs

[DMBZeppelin]

I'd talk shit even if the Brewers sucked.

Harassing Cubs fans is what I live for. The Brewers could be the worst team in baseball and I'd still be sitting here laughing at you guys for thinking that "this is your year"

:lol
I think I've figured out what sets Cubs fans apart from the rest of ya. Cubs fans don't live to harrass other fans. We live to root on our team. We could care less what everyone else does, as long as our team is doing well.

This thread is filled with passionate die hard Cubs fans. It's overall a very active thread. Then you have your VanHorneDogs and Rodey's who'd rather come trash talk the Cubs then keep their own teams threads alive. I mean keep doing what you're doing, because it works for you.

But I just want to say every Cubs fan in this thread kicks ass. Hopefully we have a monster 2nd half.

I second that fact that everyone in here kicks ass....even Bo and gocubsgo.

According to Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated, the Colorado Rockies struck out in their initial attempt to deal outfielder Matt Holliday to the New York Mets.


The offer that was "floated" to the Mets had Holliday and center fielder Willy Taveras headed to New York for center fielder Carlos Beltran and top prospect outfielder Fernando Martinez. However, the Mets don't want to deal Beltran, and it is unlikely he would even waive his no-trade clause to allow the deal to go through anyways.
We should see if we could trade the farm for Holliday. Can he play center? If not Holliday in left, Fuk in center, and Soriano in right. That be my dream. Mainly because Holliday is hitting .337 with a .421 OBP. Though I know this will never happen.

[devilandthelord]

sup ya'll

omg.

[gocubsgo3822]

Good post earlier Zep we are great fans... Except for Bo... Bo sucks at life. Fucking pussy liberal..... :evil

On another note I am very excited that we open the second half tomorrow.. I think we have really good and favorable pitching matchups the first two series out...

Its super clutch we dont have to face Webb or Haren when we face AZ..... WHich means we will likely get to go against Owings, Randy (a sure loss), and Doug Davis....
















Cubs..


ps. you suck Bo

Fuk continues to look like a jackass at the plate.

[UCFish]

Edmonds hr!!!!

[UCFish]

Grand Slam Boys

Go Cubs.

[UCFish]

Crickets....

Good game by Lilly.

The middle of Houstons lineup does scare the shit out of me though.

Berkman, Lee, Tejada...scary.

[Tiduwho]

Let's get out of it Lilly.

[TapNorris]

Don't be a douche Ted...get this guy out!!!

[TapNorris]

Wow!! Nice playing boys!!

[UCFish]

I want to punch Fuk in the face and remind him to play like he did the first month and a half.

9 for 58 slump right now.

Nice game. Can't Reed Johnson just replace him for a while.

[UCFish]

Well that sucked.

[TapNorris]

Go fuck yourself Bob Howry!

[Tiduwho]

We lost to WHO again? We couldn't hit against WHO?


Are you kidding me?

[devilandthelord]

Goddamn Bobby Howry!
I just got no faith in that guy in big spots in games.
He always seems to blow it.
And he used to be so good.

[UCFish]

Boo...

Lets get them tomorrow.

[DMBCubs25]

What the hell happened tonight?

[gocubsgo3822]

that sucked... on another note i can no longer post at work since they shut my internet off of my computer.. lets get them tomorrow and on another note...






















ROI (get better please)

[bothedmbfan]

Wait, what's wrong with Roi?

Howry FTL

[gocubsgo3822]

that game was really depressing tonight.. Fuk sucks right now. He cant hit shit... fuck.. We could be tailspininng soon.. i pray no tthough. Hopefully Sorianos return will be a huge shot in the arm

[Rodey]

You guys can start worrying about the Brewers now, because your collapse and our rise to the top started tonight.

[gocubsgo3822]

get out please

[Rodey]

get out please

:lol

[gocubsgo3822]

just go back to boobs :lol

[Tiduwho]

I like hating shit.

[bothedmbfan]

:lol

Nothing, I just felt like saying it.

Despite my outbursts against you, you know I got nothin but love for ya man.

[Tiduwho]

Fuck.

[gocubsgo3822]

i know bo i know :D

[DMBZeppelin]

You guys can start worrying about the Brewers now, because your collapse and our rise to the top started tonight.
:lol It was just one game.

If we take 2 of 3, we're 20 games over. If you sweep the Giants, you're 12 games over. I'm not sweating it yet. But the Cubs next three starters are Zambrano, Dempster, and Harden... a.k.a. the start of a winnng streak.

[DMBZeppelin]

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=allstar/080718

They stole my idea, about how teams with the best record at the All-Star break faired.

But it also makes one question I had a lot easier to answer. Since 1969, 17 of the 79 teams who owned or shared the best record (in their league) haven't made the post season. I'm not sure what percent that is, but I like our odds.

[devilandthelord]

You guys can start worrying about the Brewers now, because your collapse and our rise to the top started tonight.

:lol Yah right meat.

Fonzie's coming back soon and we're gonna start rolling again. It was just one shitty game at the plate for us is all.
The announcer even said that sometimes after the all-star break it takes hitters a game or two to readjust to major league pitching.
We'll be fine.

[UCFish]

Cubs!

[TapNorris]

Cubs!!

[devilandthelord]

Fonz!

[Tiduwho]

Win, please.

[TapNorris]

Abso-fucking-lutely ridiculous tonight. No offense, bad breaks on defense leading to more bad breaks on defense and runs. I'm not going to be able to handle a second half like this!! I'm pissed off and there's nothing that's going to help me not be pissed off.

[Ev42]

shitty start to the 2nd half

[Sou1 So1di3r]

Cubs.

[gocubsgo3822]

well it was fun while it lasted...

[devilandthelord]

I'm gonna say something. And then I'm gonna go to bed.

I think we should all stop with the "Cubs" posts.
Just cubs and nothing else that is.

Its silly and means nothing.

That is all.
Goodnight y'all.

[thebestauntie]

Cubs.

[gocubsgo3822]

what is going on in the 24um how long has this been going on? i was at work all day

[thebestauntie]

I think it's someone who got banned a couple of days ago and now he's acting like a little boy.

[gocubsgo3822]

its pretty fucking annoying it took me a while to find ass and boobs

But yes, it is very annoying.

It should never take you too long to find ass or boobs.
He is certainly a problem in that case. :mad

[gocubsgo3822]

look i dont want to throw in the towel yet but we need soriano back.... w really need him.... i am sure it will come around when he is back..

ALSO WHEN IS THE LAST TIME DEREK LEE HIT A FUCKING HOMER???????

its really not humurous that Big Z was the offense tonight... i thought it was at first then not so much.. we have lost 4 games in the standings in two days not cool

[devilandthelord]

Don't panic. Its been 2 games. All Star Break fucks with hitters rhythms.
2 Things I can promise you.
1. We will get better offensively no matter what.
2. Fonzie is coming back real soon. :)

yea it is looking like he will be coming back maybe wednesday now instead of thurday... we jsut have a rough road ahead.. luckily though no matter what we will control our destiny with so many games left witht he brewers nd cardinals.. i jsut dont know why we suck so much dick on the road

[Sou1 So1di3r]

FUCK.




go cubs

[gocubsgo3822]

on another note... can we not platoon edmonds.. he is the only one hitting

[HolyCow]

We need Fonzie back. We're so inconsistent with the bats. Our lineup changes day to day. A first place team should have some consistency, but we can't because we're missing such a key bat.

But on the bright side, Theriot sure is swinging a hot bat.

[clayj41]

Howdy Partner is my new favorite Ant. :lol



Oh, and this losing thing sucks!!! :BANG

[Ev42]

howdy


cubs

[DMBZeppelin]

(Go Cubs)
Just when I think you couldn't possibly be any dumber, you go and do something like this… and TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF!

[bothedmbfan]

Yes it did sir.

[Tiduwho]

Can someone clue me in on this Howdy Partner nonsense?

[devilandthelord]

Can someone clue me in on this Howdy Partner nonsense?

Some idiot who is either an alter of someone here or someone from nancies topped all these old threads that Jake made last night.
Like over 100 of them. It was rediculous and stupid.

DMBtheStoned perhaps?

He got banned for bumping threads a few days ago...

[UCFish]

I doubt he would do that.

Lets get a win today!

[devilandthelord]

Dear Cubs,
Please don't get swept today, and please finally win one for Ryan Dempster on the road. Also please just start to get better playing on the road.
Thanks Cubs you're the best.
Sincerely,
Ryan

[SqueeBaBooSquee]

^ I agree

good start today though :D

[gocubsgo3822]

good start today.......

i love hollywood... lets get demp win number 11..

i am pretty sure howdy partner is someone from the stone forums that got banned.

[SqueeBaBooSquee]

There's Fukudome swinging at shit again...

[devilandthelord]

Fuk is in a straight up nasty slump right now.
He's painful to watch.

[Tiduwho]

Hmmmmm

[UCFish]

When I click on page 421 it takes me to the top of page 420...wierd

[devilandthelord]

Fuk is in a straight up nasty slump right now.
I know he had a double earlier, but overall during the last 2 weeks he has been painful to watch.

[gocubsgo3822]

boobs :lol

i like derosas clean cut image....


we are swinging at pitches like a bunch of jackasses...

off to work i go

[gocubsgo3822]

boobs :lol

boy we are swingin awaya like a bunch of jackasses today....

Brewers acquired Ray Durham today from the Giants

[UCFish]

Is this thread exploding?

[devilandthelord]

I don't know what's going on!!!

I don't know what we're yelling about!?!

[UCFish]

:lol

Demps looking good today.

[devilandthelord]

Louuuuuud noises!!!!

Yes Demps sure is.

[UCFish]

Sneaky Power does it again.

[UCFish]

Good work by Demps getting out of bases loaded no outs!

[devilandthelord]

Great job to get out of that spot, Demps.

That's nasty.
Strikes out 2 guys in a row, then get the third guy to fly out in foul territory.
That is bigtime poise and clutch right there.

[devilandthelord]

I think if "Sneaky Power" played everyday he'd be good for 20-25 Homers.
Its not so sneaky anymore, and its no accident.

[UCFish]

I agree with all of that.

So nice Jonathan can't post whore from work anymore.

[devilandthelord]

Hahaha, his precious post lead will be going down the drain in no time. :evil

[SqueeBaBooSquee]

ass n titties.

[UCFish]

Glad to be through the big three unscathed again.

[TapNorris]

I can't remember the last time I've seen a team get SO MANY pussy hits in a series. The Astros have been getting really lucky with some of these pussy little hits.

[Tiduwho]

DMBtheStoned perhaps?

He got banned for bumping threads a few days ago...

Yep. Figured it was.

[UCFish]

Fuk with another lazy fly ball out.

Nice work by Font, Demps, and Theriot to manufacture a run.

[DMBZeppelin]

I think if "Sneaky Power" played everyday he'd be good for 20-25 Homers.
Its not so sneaky anymore, and its no accident.
I disagree, even a guy like DeRosa doesn't come clost to that. It is awesome he's got 8 on the season now. I'm just glad he's not dieing out like last year. He was hot when we called him up, and then he stopped hitting all together. So he's probably not a guy who can play everyday.

[devilandthelord]

Demps is the fuckin' man.

[UCFish]

Fontenodt awesome.

[devilandthelord]

FonteYES!

[devilandthelord]

Well the bats are back and Demps is awesome.
Finally going to get Demps a road win.
Now all we need is to have Marmol get out of the 9th without giving up any runs and I will feel quite encouraged.

Edit: Hooray!

Cubs win! Cubs win!

[TapNorris]

Yay! Cubs Win!!

[devilandthelord]

Hey Chicago whaddya say?
Cubs are gonna win today!

Good ballgame Demp.

[devilandthelord]

I just was looking at Demps profile on ESPN.com and I noticed it said he's from BC.

Demps is Canadian!?! :eek

Why did I not know this? I don't how I feel about this.

Just kidding, I love Demps anyway. :hug

Did you guys know this?

[gocubsgo3822]

I agree with all of that.

So nice Jonathan can't post whore from work anymore.

fuck that shit is so messed up

Hahaha, his precious post lead will be going down the drain in no time. :evil

never i will always win

ass n titties.

vote boobs


great game today harden going tomorrow.. st louis and milwaukee need to lose

[devilandthelord]

We need to win our series agains the D'Bags starting tomorrow.
More than usual that is, because The Cards and the Brewers start playing eachother tomorrow as well.
And we gotta make sure we stay ahead of them, because somebody's gonna be making at least a game's progress by the end of that series, against the other that is.
As long as we do our job we'll be fine.
But if we lose the series, one of those two teams will be creeping up on us even closer.

Lets go Cubs!

[gocubsgo3822]

Soriano might be activated tomorrow night if all goes well tomorrow morning...... you heard it here first

[DMBZeppelin]

I just was looking at Demps profile on ESPN.com and I noticed it said he's from BC.

Demps is Canadian!?! :eek

Why did I not know this? I don't how I feel about this.

Just kidding, I love Demps anyway. :hug

Did you guys know this?
I did, and so is Harden. They think they might be the first two SP's from BC in the same rotation.

[UCFish]

Wood too the DL today. Retroactive he will be able to come back Sunday. It is that damn blister. Soriano set to start rehab assignment today as well.

[devilandthelord]

Harden today!

That sucks about Wood though. I hope it doesn't linger the rest of the season.

[gocubsgo3822]

hopefully soriano is activated in time for todays game....

i am pretty sure we will lose today..

Cubs vs. Big Unit 0-12 :lol

[UCFish]

We are due for a win.

Its all good.

[TapNorris]

hopefully soriano is activated in time for todays game....

i am pretty sure we will lose today..

Cubs vs. Big Unit 0-12 :lol

Hey...enough of that talk! There's a first time for everything!! :bounce :shrug

i doubt it but we will see

[devilandthelord]

hopefully soriano is activated in time for todays game....

i am pretty sure we will lose today..

Cubs vs. Big Unit 0-12 :lol

New era. We got Rich Harden

[devilandthelord]

Work today, Jon?

:evil Mwahahahahaha!!!

[UCFish]

God I hope so. Going to be late to the watching of the game today. Must watch Dark Knight on IMAX first. Hopefully we will be up by 5 by the time I get out.

[devilandthelord]

God I hope so. Going to be late to the watching of the game today. Must watch Dark Knight on IMAX first. Hopefully we will be up by 5 by the time I get out.

Hopefully.
And I hate you!
I haven't even seen it at all yet! :twenty4

[devilandthelord]

Big Unit may be 12-0 against us lifetime, but he has not faced us since 2004, and we have Harden going today as well.
I'm confident.

[UCFish]

This is garbage dark knight imax sold out every day this week for the times i can go...oh well seeing it again on normal hopefully we will be winninv by the time it is over

[devilandthelord]

Sucks man.
I'm debating on whether I should try to see it IMAX as well.

[devilandthelord]

Do you think it'd be cool Omnimax or would that just be too much or not right for it?
Cuz we do have one of those here as well.

[JaJunk]

Sucks man.
I'm debating on whether I should try to see it IMAX as well.

Go to the IMAX. Question for you folks in Chicago. Do they have an IMAX downtown? I'll be back in the city for the Chi/Stl series coming up, and would love to catch it for a second time in Gotham.

[devilandthelord]

Go to the IMAX. Question for you folks in Chicago. Do they have an IMAX downtown? I'll be back in the city for the Chi/Stl series coming up, and would love to catch it for a second time in Gotham.

Yes they do.
We have an IMAX at Navy Pier, and also an Omnimax at the Field Museum as well.


I just found out there is an IMAX in Lincolnshire too!
Which is less of a hassle than going downtown and pretty much the same driving distance so I might go there instead.
They have tickets for all showings on Friday, of which there are many.
Yes! :evil

An Omnimax would be extreme. I always forget about the IMAX at the pier, and I lived in Chicagoland for over a year :lol

[devilandthelord]

I know, I'm like man I don't know if I could handle OMNIMAX for this! :eek

But they are showing it.

[thebestauntie]

I'm confused, is this the Dark Knight appreciation thread or the Cubs thread? :confused

[devilandthelord]

I'm confused, is this the Dark Knight appreciation thread or the Cubs thread? :confused

I'm confused about something too:

Just kidding, haha, but I actually am kinda confused about something.
Did your boy Ricky get the :banned?

That's too bad.
And we Chicagoans are just extra excited about TDK because we are now Gotham City and officially the coolest city in the world. :D

I need Ricky back! :lorraine

Amen. Go Cubs

Indeed.
Almost gametime!

[devilandthelord]

Harden is cruising through 4. 7 Ks and no runs scored!

Only problem is, we haven't scored either.

[devilandthelord]

Not a great lineup tonight.

DeRosa and Johnson are playing the corner outfield spots.
As much as I love those two guys, I will be so fucking happy when Soriano comes back to add some pop to this lineup!


Edit: Where is everyone!?!

So who are the Cubbies playing?

[devilandthelord]

You must be really bored at work tonight! :lol

So who are the Cubbies playing?

Yeah I've not had much to do. :lol
They're playing the Diamondbacks, and right now its quite the pitcher's duel between Harden and Randy Johnson.

Cubs need some runs!

See ya later! :)

[TapNorris]

Damn.

[devilandthelord]

Well I guess I can say it after the homer.

Harden had a no-no thru 5 IP. :(

Now we just need to score some fucking runs!!!

C'mon Cubs! This is sad!

[TapNorris]

So many drives just short of the wall. Reminds me of game one last year. Had about three balls that we just didn't get quite enough of.

[devilandthelord]

Dude.
We need to fucking put up some runs because I am gonna be really pissed if Harden pitches this well and we can't put up 2 fucking runs for him!

[UCFish]

Ok back from movie. WTF where is the hitting.

OK a BASERUNNER!

[Sou1 So1di3r]

So I am sitting here in New York... I don't think we get the game on TV. Bummer. But Holiday Inn has free mlb gameday audio. Yay!

[TapNorris]

Agreed. This offense is too good not to put up a couple runs to win this one.

[TapNorris]

Ugh.

[UCFish]

This is disgusting.

[TapNorris]

Oh Bobby Howry, please don't make me curse you again tonight.

[UCFish]

We are going to need to score next inning or if I were Harden I might go bananas.

[devilandthelord]

Not good. Not good.

I get really pissed when the Cubs have games like this.

[TapNorris]

Oh Bobby Howry, please don't make me curse you again tonight.

Bob Howry, you're a piece of shit....you made me do it.

[UCFish]

And Howry gives up another run.

Nice

[UCFish]

Soriano can't be back soon enough.

The road play is ridiculous and embarassing.

[devilandthelord]

Well super. :(


On the bright side, Mike, I got IMAX tickets to TDK tonight!

[devilandthelord]

Soriano can't be back soon enough.

The road play is ridiculous and embarassing.

2 very true and sad statements. :shrug

[TapNorris]

Ok, now Kosuke, don't swing at shit pitches and embarrass all us Cubs fans.

[TapNorris]

Holy Shit, we caught a break!!!

[TapNorris]

God Damnit!! You've got to be shitting me D-Lee?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?

Where have you gone D-Lee?

[TapNorris]

Embarrassing.

[UCFish]

Seriously why even swinging. For fuck sake.

That was horrific.

[devilandthelord]

God what a shit game.

And on that note, I'm leaving work. MAD.

[UCFish]

That was awful

[UCFish]

Diamondbacks announcers are great though. Did not know Grace was an announcer.

[Sou1 So1di3r]

fucking nice D lee. nice

[MPizzle06]

Fuck this.
Harden gives us another gem and we can't score a fucking run.

[UCFish]

He gave up one hit and he is now 0-1.

Road woes are not going away.

WTF is wrong with D. Lee. His power seems to have completely disappeared and changed into a dp machine.

[UCFish]

Well super. :(


On the bright side, Mike, I got IMAX tickets to TDK tonight!

THATS BULLSHIT.

I won't get to do it for a couple weeks probably. The 8:30PPM here is sold out until next Monday.

[clayj41]

:lorraine

[DMBCubs25]

This team is becoming the 07 brewers, dominant at home, pathetic on the road, lousy bullpen

[DMBZeppelin]

• • Pitcher Angel Guzman -- the Cubs' fifth starter early last season -- visited teammates in the clubhouse and said his rehab from last year's Tommy John surgery is going well enough that he plans to start a minor-league rehab assignment within two weeks with an eye toward returning to the active roster by mid-August.
Guzman coming back would be FANTASTIC news. Because if he's healthy, and his stuff is the same. He's one of our better pitchers. So that means he could kick someone out of the pen or rotation. Either way I'd be fine.

[UCFish]

“I thought we hit the ball well,” Lee said, “we just didn’t have anything to show for it.”

Really...really?

[devilandthelord]

THATS BULLSHIT.

I won't get to do it for a couple weeks probably. The 8:30PPM here is sold out until next Monday.

Well damn that sucks. You should really live in Chicagoland. I got one in Lincolnshire that has lots of showings all day Friday and Saturday. :p

[gocubsgo3822]

well 7 iP 1 hit 1 run 10 ks just isnt what it used to be... i hought we hit the ball well it was just hit to fucking their outfielders... i am starting to get nervous..

[gocubsgo3822]

btw the alst time derek lee hit a homer was over a month ago game one vs. the sox......

rich harden must be wondering what he needs to do to get a win..

he was fucking spectaucluar tonight..

You mean don't show Jon?

You're a mean older brother.
But is there any other kind? :lol

[UCFish]

Yeah that is what I tried to say. Apparently I can't type today.

I am nice to him.

[TapNorris]

Gentlemen, I'm going to be watching our favorite band tonight, so do your best to pump some life into the offense. We need a W!!

[UCFish]

Have fun there tonight!

Are you going to the brewery restaurant in Old Town beforehand?

I love that place.

[bothedmbfan]

I think we're just in a slump, when Fonz comes back, it should help.

[devilandthelord]

Fonz coming back will be an immense boost for the offense.

I hope. If the O as a whole doesnt start coming around we may need fonz to have one of those amazing stretches where he carries us for a week or two at a time.

[Tiduwho]

Guzman coming back would be FANTASTIC news. Because if he's healthy, and his stuff is the same. He's one of our better pitchers. So that means he could kick someone out of the pen or rotation. Either way I'd be fine.

I doubt his stuff is anything to get excited about. He hasn't been consistent since 2003. That's 5 years of injuries, mixed in with being bad a lot of the time.

[devilandthelord]

Yeah I agree. I don't get too excited about him. To me he's unproven still.


BTW, have you joined the Cubs Fans group yet? Cuz you ain't cool unless you join the Cubs Fans group. :cool

[devilandthelord]

Well it certainly would be lovely to score some runs. :rolleyes

Fuck it I'm not posting in here again until we do.

[devilandthelord]

Fuck finally.
But we are still losing. :(

Its times like these I wish we had 8 Ryan Theriots in the lineup.

Man, I never thought I'd say that, but he has officially converted me.

[HolyCow]

Why can't we hit? This is so frustrating. This guy is throwing 82-84 and we aren't hitting squat.

[devilandthelord]

We.... are...... bad right now.

I feel so sad and cold, but mostly sad. :lorraine

[Penguins87]

Whats that? The sound of the Cardinals taking control of the NL Central? The sound of the Pirates leading for wildcard? Nope....:( just wishful thinking. Cubs def in the playoffs yall have nothin to worry about...Especially the Pirates

[HolyCow]

F!

D-Lee has been anti-clutch lately.

[41ravens]

this little slump is not fun. especially with milwaukee coming on strong.

edit: and an excellent job by marshall. fuck this noise. i'm going to bed.

[devilandthelord]

Whats that? The sound of the Cardinals taking control of the NL Central? The sound of the Pirates leading for wildcard? Nope....:( just wishful thinking. Cubs def in the playoffs yall have nothin to worry about...Especially the Pirates

:lol I almost spit out my drank!

Thank you. I needed that.

I do like a lot of the Pirates players though. Nady, Bay, McLouth, Doumit.
Y'all can hit. Now if you just get some pitching you might be able to do something.

[devilandthelord]

Jesus fuck we are terrible at the moment.
I'm out fellas. Goodnight.
Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Go Cubs? :(

Edit: Right now I am in favor of Lou slapping the shit out of people to wake them up!

[MPizzle06]

I hate to say it...but he should pull an Ozzie, but on his own terms and in his own way.

Wake the FUCK UP Cubs!!!! Fucking 1 game up on the Brewfucks if we lose this?? ugh.

[Sou1 So1di3r]

Fuck, what the hell is going on?


I wish I could watch this game. Does anyone have mlb.tv? I wanna watchhhhh

[Rodey]

I knew you guys would collapse, I just didn't think it'd happen this fast.

Only the Cubs! :lol

[Sou1 So1di3r]

^...?

Fuck..you?

[DMBCubs25]

Derrek Lee please take up a new sport and Kevin Hart please never take a major league mound again, you are truly pathetic

[DMBCubs25]

I knew you guys would collapse, I just didn't think it'd happen this fast.

Only the Cubs! :lol

Much like the brewers collapsed last year. And plus the wildcard is coming out of this division anyway so you can enjoy that. And heres a nice thought for brewers fans, what happens if you don't win it this year? Goodbye future, goodbye sheets and sabathia, goodbye fielder when you don't have the money to resign him

[gocubsgo3822]

well i am done.. its over. we will lose even if we make the playoffs.. this offense is pathetic

[gocubsgo3822]

then again we have been missing our best hitter for the past 6 weeks....

[gocubsgo3822]

soriano will be activated tomorrow from lou

[gocubsgo3822]

hopefully soraino back in the lineup tonight is the shot in the arm we need...

Soriano
Riot
Lee
Rammy
Hollywood
Soto
Dome
DeRsa

[UCFish]

I knew you guys would collapse, I just didn't think it'd happen this fast.

Only the Cubs! :lol

I mean come on we don't go in your thread every time you lose two games. Please be respectful and get the fuck into your thread and post shit like this so all three Brewers fans can read it.

Thanks,

Michael

[gocubsgo3822]

there thread never has any life so they need to come in here :lol

i kind of enjoy him he makes me laugh but seriously get the hell out Rodey

[darbini]

Cubs

[UCFish]

We need to win bad tonight.

[gocubsgo3822]

oh fucking yea we do.....we really need to win. Lilly back to the place where he threw his glove on the ground

[gocubsgo3822]

you know what the sad part about this losing thing is... our starting pitching has been phenomenal for the most part.. Z hzad the worst start but a lot of that was due to bad defense and seeing eye fucking singles.. everyone else has done well

[devilandthelord]

Please snap the fuck out of it tonight Cubs!

[UCFish]

May go see the Dark Knight again and just cross my fingers and hope we win.

Jon: Got degenerate drunk with Kurt last night. Being at work right now is kind of a joke.

[gocubsgo3822]

yea no shit i could tell from your fucking voice you cant hide it well.. i also got drunk as well.. Busch Light FTW!!!

[darbini]

They'll be fine, and I'm sure they're going to peak heading into the playoffs.

[UCFish]

yea no shit i could tell from your fucking voice you cant hide it well.. i also got drunk as well.. Busch Light FTW!!!

I talked to you last night....wow that is ridiculous.

[gocubsgo3822]

yea i was more pissed about stay encore closing than the cubs suckign ass

[UCFish]

:lol

[gocubsgo3822]

we will win tonight i have a feeling... Soriano back will boost everyones spirits...

little side note.. Lou called him our teams best hitter which i thought was interesting saying that with Lee and Rammy on the team

[davehead86]

I am going to the Aug 3rd home game, scored some BOX Bleacher seats :hump I am hopin that by then this little slump is over and I can finally see the Cubs win one in person.

Ill be at the bar tonight, drinkin if were doin good or bad, lets just hope its good.

[devilandthelord]

yea i was more pissed about stay encore closing than the cubs suckign ass

I just now saw the final setlist.
That was a shitty, shitty encore man. Sorry. :lol
