Nothing like toying with the Disastros and then crushing their dreams on the second to last day of regular season.

Dood, you just lost to the Reds... a team we beat 6 games in a row... meanwhile, we've won 2 straight series with the Cards. The Astros may not make the wildcard, but they've shown a hell of a lot more better play than that group of whiners you call the Cubs have so far.
 
Giants are gonna win too. WC tie, Houston a half game back. Angels win, Oakland loses. That division is tied.

gonna be a CRAAAAAZY week in baseball. Come on Cubs....all I need is for you to lose. Either the Giants are Stros are bound to win...


and ichiro is 2-4

only 4 more to break the record..
 
Wow. You guys beat the Cards when they have nothing left to play for while awaiting the postseason...congrats...

Anyway, back to those whiney Cubs, you guys should read this:

The best article I have read which talks about this 2004 Cubs team. You need to register but iit's free so do it! Some juicy tidbits:

This year's Cubs team has been a defiantly fan-unfriendly bunch. When they're not on the disabled list or being suspended by the league for misbehavior, Cubs players circa 2004 are calling the TV announcers to complain about the play-by-play commentary or getting doubled off second base for the third time in a week.

Sammy Sosa's home-run hop has quickly gone from endearing to annoying, especially when he does it prematurely and turns a sure double into an embarrassing 9-4-6 putout at second. It may have been cute when he was hitting 60 homers for a noncontending team, but when he's batting .260 in a pennant race ... it's time to put a cork in it, Sammy.

Fundamentals don't seem to matter to Baker and his players. Moises Alou has committed a career's worth of base-running blunders this season, most of which Baker has shrugged off as "aggressive" mistakes. No, Dusty. "Aggressive" base running is going from first to third on a single. Getting doubled off base on a routine fly ball-even in a hit-and-run situation-is not aggressive. It's just plain stupid.

And please, no more bitchy calls to the broadcast booth. If the players were doing their jobs as well as Chip and Steve are doing theirs, the Cubs wouldn't be 16 games behind the Cardinals now and fighting for their postseason survival. Turn off the TV and get your head in the game.

BEST line in there:

When Dusty Baker came to town a couple of years ago, he said he wanted the Cubs to shed their image as lovable losers.

Congratulations, Dusty.

The Cubs are no longer losers, and they're about as lovable as the Taliban.

RIP. I remember growing up when the Expos were always by far the most popular baseball team in most of Canada. But after their shameful coma-like existence for the past several years it's good to see it finally end. Like their original TV commentator said the other day, I cried my tears for the team in the 90's when they got bent over and prison-raped more or less constantly by fate and shitty ownership problems.
 
FUCK! Dodgers could have gotten out of the 8th with giving up 0 runs by Bradley gets an error and now all the sudden it's 4-0. San Fran is gonna win too... IDIOT!

oh man.. last 3 games i've been to. Close to the end of last year, the game that got rained out and made into a double header which we weren't allowed to go to. Instead other fans got lucky and got a free second game and watched Cubs clinch. Then I went to the home opener where Maddux got pounded vs. these very same Reds on another cold windy night. Final like 13-2. This then a re-enactment of that.

But the good part, got wasted with a bunch of friends and acted like asses at a Cubs game. Coke and whiskey all day long. The high point of that being when we had to chuck the rest of this whiskey we had in a 20 ounce coke bottle so this dude could piss while stuck in traffic. He was seriously gonna die. So me and another friend are drinking as much whiskey as possible, passing it, and washing it down with coke.

Before the game meanwhile we go across the street to Starbucks to piss. Just like 4 of us all headed straight to the bathroom. Two girls are there and waiting. Its a 1 person restroom. So we're waiting there but not very patiently. The most wasted of us so far meanwhile is moaning in an offensive manner saying he can't hold it and when it comes out its gona just shoot like a hose. We let the one girl go and when she came back her 1 friend was just left with us. The wasted one goes in and he's still moaning loudly but this time while in the restroom. The girl's laughing her head off but finally says "I can't do this" and runs away to her friend.

Then coming out of the Cubs game one of my friends is yelling "Don't anybody worry! Cubs'll win it! Dont worry bout a thing. DONT YOU WORRY... Shit we fucked up today!". Again stuck in traffic on Clark and Addison outside Wrigley and he's yelling out the window whatever comes to mind. "Hey you cunt, Owww! Yeheah!". We had to settle him down and told him just to say nice things and he promises not to swear. Roll his window back down and he nicely says "Hey, lady, you are beautiful! You're gorgeous.. I want to fuck you!" *roll window back up*. Then we see a guy and declare no more swearing. So my friend tries seriously talking. "Cubs lost! Did you hear about that? It sucks." and he says "I gave up on those fucking losers a while ago". Well, since he started the swearing "....... you unfaithful cocksucker! Cubs are gonna fucking win it all!! Come over here, I'll beat your fucking ass! You fucking prick". Rest of the way home was spent trying to freestyle drunk. Good times. Stuff I remember anyway

oh comon.... he did win us the game yesterday.



OH shit hahaha haha Werth Got a double

I smell a Comeback!!!


HAHAHAHA DODGERS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
From the recap on ESPN.com, "The Dodgers lead the NL with 51 comeback wins -- second-most in franchise history. The 1953 Brooklyn Dodgers had 52 come-from-behind victories."

Dunno about the Yanks.
 
Man Fuck that DRunk fan that threw the bottle at Bradley. I know he didn't deserve the hate. Bradley was blinded by the stadium light that caused the runs to score. Lets hope hes not suspened for anymore games.
 
HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could care less about most of Bradley's antics, I kinda like that he shows emotion when he strikes out or screws up. That fan had it coming, what a fool.
 
He also had a bottle thrown at him down in San Fran. this past weekend. I think he'll probably get a 2 game suspension at the least. I hope the bastard that threw it gets a lifetime ban to along with some jail time. After all those blown chances to score throughout the game we win it with 5 in the bottom of the 9th!!! WERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTH, FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINLEY, CHAAAAAAAAAAACON!


Are we gonna get a news story on the Giants complaining that the Rockies are laying down for us? ;) LOL

Someone get this guy a beer! ON ME!

ESPN is reporting that 20,000 - 25,000 will attend the last ever Montreal Expos game (at home, that is).

It's pretty sad, but on the other hand -- FUCK MONTREAL, YOU ABANDONED YOUR TEAM AND NOW THEY'RE MINE!

Rusch has to score runs on his own since the rest of the team can't.

Sosa is the shittiest 17 million dollar a year investment ever.
 
Did Sosa do the hop? :lol
 
:lol :lol :lol :lol

steve stone: "Moises is gonna have to get a great jump to make sure they stay out of the double play."

VERY next play...A-Ram grounds into the DP :lol
 
:lol

Anyone else starting to get the feeling God isnt a Cubs fan ;)
 
:lol Stoney rules!

And wtf Alou! You run from 1st to 3rd on a pop up to 2nd base all the time! Get your ass in gear and jump the gun to 2nd base! Or do you only run on a hit when it is a guaranteed fly out?!
