LaRussa you bitch. You are cashing in this series just to screw the Cubs.

Speaking of these freaking Cubs, CAN WE PLEASE SCORE A DAMN RUN AGAINST JOSH FOGG?

OMFG, I can't believe this shit. We are getting shut out by one of the worst pitchers.

Phwew, Oliver and Miceli come in to get work in and combined with Lamb tripping up Bruntlett on what should've been a game-ending popout, make it a 2 run game...Lidge comes in and saves it.

Roger gets #17/#327.
 

Eminem

goddamit, Griese!
if he misses that, ball goes past him, and the runner was moving already. woulda scored easily


nice throw to first you fuck

WTF...according to the website Garner named Lamb the starting 3B for the season earlier today, and he goes 0-5 tonight [he's been cold since our streak ended] and fucks up the game ending play...

Lamb has sucked the last 6 games...and his defense...ugh. Ensberg at least deserves a chance to start again after his injury.

wtf? the cubs have been to the postseason TWO FUCKING TIMES in the last 15 years.

astros have twice as many appearances in that time frame. [all division championships]

so yes, I know what it feels like.

we may not have advanced past the first round, but to imply that we've been there less than the Cubs in recent times is ludicrous.

Not really.

Stros are in and out of the playoffs so fast it's like they were never there. :D

at least it's not as painful for us, since we haven't had to see our team choke 5 outs away from the WS and blame it on a guy like Bartman.

goddamit, Griese!
something interesting on Frankie "I'm gonna win the Nobel Peace Prize" Francisco:

According to A's fans that were at the game, the heckler's remarks throughout the game were mild, with no vulgar language at all. What set off the chair throwing was when the heckler made a comment to a reliever, i think his last name is cordero, and said something about corderos mom. thats when francisco came running 30 feet away from the scene grabbed the chair and threw it at the heckler, hitting the hecklers wife or gf.

It seems to me that they had to be saying something out of the ordinary to provoke such a strong reaction. Why would the entire bullpen go crazy like that if some guy was just doing commonplace heckling?
 

Eminem

goddamit, Griese!
i just don't know what the fuck he could have possibly said. i really don't.

nothing anyone could have said to him warranted a response like that. i mean, if he jumped in the crowd and punched THE guy who did it, it would be slightly better(though not by much), but just throwing a chair into the stands with tons of people there is indefensable. Like Reali said on ATH, it doesn't matter what the guy said.

and also, I find it ironic Rose gets banned for life for betting on baseball, but a guy like this is just gonna get suspended for some games.
not saying he should be banned for life, it just seems a little askew :lol

Finally some pitching from our starting rotation. Good game, I love the current line-up with Werth in Left and Green on First. Hopefully we can get some good innings from Wilson Alvarez tommorow because he's been knocked around pretty bad in his last 3 starts. Finley and Werth with home-runs, Beltre seemed to be uncomfterable out there today.

I've now decided I want the Cubs to win the wild card because it would be so much fun to see them have another playoff meltdown. To that end, I will continue to post pictures of the starting pitcher as long as they put up quality starts and the Cubs win.

Prior time for a matinee this afternoon against the Bucos on WGN @ 1:20 CDT.

Did you guys forget the Marlins already? :(

Although ESPN keeps screwing the Marlins. Like using the wrong names!!

Marlins have a double header today, starting at 3pm est. Pavano starts game one and the Marlins are using a 7th starter in game 2, Nate Bump. Game 2 is definitely going to be a tough one.

Lets go Marlins! :D

The Marlins need to play the Braves six times yet and the Phillies six times yet. Plus the Cubs in a double header. The Giants and Pads play each other plus LA.

It's coming down to the Cubs and Stros. Houston has 5 left with St. Louis and three against the Giants. Don't forget that the Stros have to play the Stros playa hatin Brewers 6 times yet! They'll probably sweep the Cards all six games just to lose to the Brewers six times! :lol

Cubs finish with PITTS today, have four at cincy, then the damn double header in Florida on what would have been their off day, then back to Pitts, then four more against cincy at home and finish with the Braves. All we need is a split in Florida and all will be golden. Although a sweep of the Fish would be fantastic.

Prior is really struggling today.....

He hit the pitcher on a 1-2 count with the bases loaded and one out. Gives up 4 run in the top of the 2nd after the Cubs plate 4 in the bottom of the 1st.
