They seem to be on WGN less and less each year.

Down 1 I see at this point, let’s see if we can’t end this crappy losing streak. Dempster’s numbers are good thus far, and as long as they don’t bring the gas can in, I have faith.

Astros played horrible last night.

The Cubs should have won that game on 5 occasions. That they didn’t… well… it doesn’t bode well.

Lou needs to shake things up in the next series. I am officially worried.

Of course, losing the division wouldn’t be terrible if we could get the WC – we could miss the snakes in that case. I want no part of them.

It doesn't bode well?

It just means they didn’t win. It doesn’t have any effect on the rest of the series, or the season.
