Excellent game..

0 walks, 11 K’s for Harden. DeRo, Geo, Dome all go yard. Especially glad for Dome; hope this gets him going.

there was a play in last nights game

where Jack Wilson was trying to push a bunt to Weeks. Unfortunately, he hit it to Prince and somehow Prince beat him to first….

oh, my point was

it’s amusing when a team is trying to hit it to your defensive “wizards”

how long before someone.....

…..starts complaining about SOMETHING that didn’t go right

i’m gonna say someone didn’t think dome’s homer wasn’t hit far enough

by cubswynn on Aug 24, 2008 4:07 PM CDT   0 recs

well, it was hit to the shortest part of the park.

they need to go farther. just another sign of his diminished power.

that work ok?

Sorry, sorry preacherman...

Someone yesterday or the other day, (I thought it was you, maybe it was nervouscublover) said to DFA one of the Cubs after a poor game. When someone asked them why, they said, “because, I like saying DFA”. The whole thing was meant to be humorous; not calling anyone out at all.

I haven't seen him play pitcher or catcher once this season

Meaning he isn’t versatile enough

and he appears to be too dumb to know how to shave properly. really makes the team look like a bunch of scrubs.

Rays OWN the White Sox. I can’t wait to see the matchup in the playoffs…

I see people working and scrapping their whole lives just to get by

and a jackhole like AJ with a lucky horseshoe up his ass gets everything to fall his way even if he’s the biggest jerk on the planet.

More proof that god hates us.
