Are we really going to get better?

So, do all of you think we'll actually pick up some guys to improve our abysmal bench situation? I have this disturbing feeling that we'll be looking at this until the all star break... when it might be too late...

well thought out

If you had to choose just one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humor.

No, it's over

Turn off your TV for the rest of the season.

Make it green

You’re right. Some people need to relax.

2007 anyone?

8.5 games back in late June was it? Yeah, we’re playing about as bad as a team can play… and we’re still 8-8.

Someday we'll go all the way...

YES ..CUBS GET BETTER......

This is just a big bump in the 162 game schedule…..The bench will get improved somewhere down the line ….I don’t think Cubs brass wants the fans breathing down their throats every day…..

Cubs just beat the top-of-the-league Cardinals

10-3.

I think we’re going to be ok.

NO!

THEY’LL FINISH .500 and FIFTH in the division, one game ahead of PITTSBURGH.

I’ll let datcubfandaver or any of the other picture-capable bloggers add the marquee-flashing “sarcasm”.
