No kidding! Lee hit the ball for a tailor-made, inning-killing DP…and THE CUBS SCORE 2!! Now, I totally don’t believe in “fate” or anything like that…but that was a huge moment for the Cubs…

Dear Mr. Lou P
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HIT AND RUN WITH THERIOT!
I wish the Brewer's an everlasting misery and pain, so naturally I put them in Milwaukee.

Gaudin up in the pen....
Let my ashes blow in a beautiful snow from the prevailing 30 mile an hour southwest wind...
When my last remains go flying over the left field wall, I'll bid the bleacher bums adieu,
And I will come to my final resting place, out on Waveland Avenue. --Steve Goodman

DEROSA: How did it feel when you're sitting in Baton Rouge and it came across the ticker that Mark DeRosa had just signed to play second base with the Chicago Cubs.
THERIOT: In all honestly, when I saw it, I really felt like punching you right in the mouth and or breaking your leg.
What'd we do?

Relax, all right? Don't try to strike everybody out. Strikeouts are boring! Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic. Crash Davis

Lou can put Ward on the same bus as Howry

Actually Lou does
love the Hampster. Most in here were very surprised when Hampster made the team after ST.
Carlos Zambrano and Rich Harden. Now that's a pair of Aces.
94 mph fast ball down the heart of the plate and...
D-ward pops out the SS.
wow…just wow.
