We had very little to lose tonight anyway.
Marquis vs. Sheets is a hell of a mismatch. Like to limit the damage and give the offense a shot, but you can’t feel that bad about losing this game. I do think we need a new scouting report on Corey Hart, however. That guy kills us. Oh, and Marquis is not a good pitcher.

Why do people insist on announcing when they're leaving
If you can’t swallow a loss, I feel sorry for you. Please, if you leave, don’t post again for the night.

except for being annoying, that is.
I hate it when people start bitching and offer no insight to what’s being done wrong, what can be changed, etc. It’s because of bombers like you who give Cubs fans a bad reputation.

Why because i complained On bleedcubbieblue.com?
Im the most respectful Cubs public fan of all time, i dont even add to the “drinker” stereotype. im sorry I am dedicated to the cubs for life and I hate when they lose.
So plz tell me how im such a bad cubs fan and cant be JUST like YOU cause god knows my dream in life is to become a cubs fan who goes on a public website and tells people they cant be down about the team they love so much.
Its cubs fans like you who keep people from coming to a sight like this.

Unfortunately,
being respectable is not a precursor to being knowledgeable, or less irritating. And you top if off with trying to validate yourself by not being a drinker? Lord Almighty. And you want to be exactly like me? Dude, you don’t even know me. You have issues.
I bet if the Cubs win you’ll blaze this site to the high heavens, screaming that they’re the best team, like, ever.

When did i say i was knowledgable or not irritating? I just dont say how you can say how i give the cubs fan a bad rap? Do i believe in curses? Do i not watch the games? Do i sit in the bleachers drinking and screaming at opposing fans who love thier team? NO. Dont act like you know me either.
Did I say the cubs suck? Did i say i hate them? Did i say anything but it didnt even look like they cared?
I think we both need to agree that we dont know anything about the other so what the point of keeping this argument going? God knows I didnt come in here to argue to some guy ill never meet nor know.

And it really wasn’t Marquis. It was a lack of situational hitting – not getting the big inning – as well as poor bullpen pitching.

Sometimes I just scratch my head.
Most of the Cubs’ pitchers act like they don’t know the importance of getting ahead. Every damn run seems like its because someone fell behind and had to come right over the plate. Also, Lou must have been hitting the Jack before the game. I don’t care if Marquis is a good hitting pitcher. With the bases loaded and two outs, when its clear that Marquis is just hanging around, how the hell do you let him hit. Every run is important.
Its funny, you spend most of your life gripping a baseball. And in the end, its almost always the other way around.

I have one of these ‘magical’ Phiten necklaces and its cool but COME ON! Smith for the A’s has 6 of them on. He looks like a white Mr.T. When is MLB going to limit the Phiten neckwear to single digits. Its getting out of control.

Greene's an excellent player...
...good defense and he seems to hit very well when he’s not at Petco. I’m not even sure that a Park Factor covers the difference here; Greene’s home-road splits are much broader than the average hitter, and it may be that Greene is affected more than most players by Petco. I’d love to see him in blue pinstripes.

Lieber is looking better
I’m a fan of his. At least, I like him more than Marquis…not that I dislike Marquis—I just like Lieber better.

I heard we cut Les Walrond
So we could resign him to a more lucrative contract, then trade him for Derek Jeter, Phil Hughes, Chien Ming Wang, and Joba Chamberlain.

Stop it with the name calling
I hate it when people think all Cubs fans are drunks and don’t care about baseball. And when you call people fat or gay you only add to that stereotype.

Marquis
We knew going in to this season Marquis made the rotation due to Hendry`s stupidity! 21 million over 3 years! Gee, give me a blank check and turn me loose! He has to be held accountable for his free-spending.

There’s nothing like DFA’ing someone just so he can be the starting catcher. It’s playing hard-to-get.

I'm not saying
run him out of town. But would we rather have an top end catcher or pitcher?
