Very dejected sounding.

Hawks pretty quiet. Pinning it on the fac that it’s warm outside and it’s Wrigley. Like “Justget it up in the air and it’s probably outta here” crap.

because this is a day where you don’t want to have to destroy your bullpen in a 15-12 game. Let the Sux go through their pen and hopefully we can get Marquis through 7 and have either Wuertz or Lieber mop up. That could set the bullpen up well for the next few days.

That's ridiculous.

He helped himself last inning and kept it going. Not his best outing, but come on. You seriously cannot complain up 5 on the Sux.

LOL,

can I have my own opinion? You can’t make me like a player—I will root for him as long as he’s a Cub, but I just shiver whenever he pitches.

Agreed

I like Marquis’ attitude about being a ball player and how he genuinely seems to try, but i still don’t particularly trust him.

That's fair.

I just get sort of rabidly anti-negativity when my teams are playing.

I think the implication was some could argue it was racist

B/c the … ahem … interesting-looking CHW fan is black and the attractive CHC fan is white. Not necessarily saying it is racist, just that it could be construed that way

Sorry, not meaning to be accusing, just thinking of the types of things people in my line of work would see.

The white chick is great, the black chick is not. That’s pretty much where the racism thing would come in. I meant it more as a “great pic, should fix it so that it can’t be critiqued” than a comment as to what I see, if that makes sense?
