Hi guys
No mass suicides please. It’s just baseball. Blame it on Hendry and move on.
One day I hope to come up with something worthy of this space.
(I took a peek)
(That’s why I asked for cool heads. Thanks Sue.)

Nice tag line
Only a game and a half until it’s accurate.
Who needs a stinkin' tag line? What are they for anyway?
you must be a real peach in real life.

NOT!
I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

on a positive note
i’m sure it’s been discussed, but i just got here. for 3G iphone users, update to OS 3.0 and get MLB at bat. mlb is now streaming LIVE VIDEO of a couple games per day to your fone. it is sick.

Absolutely nuts
This coaching staff and scouting staff has completely lost it. Every team in this league has been knocking the bat out of Gordon Beckham’s hands since he’s been up. So what do the Cubs do? Continue to pitch him away so he can handle something.
Even worse, apparently the cure for Marmol’s control issues is to flip sliders rather than throwing them. Cool. Make him less effective than he has been.
This team is absolutely, unequivocally dead in the water. Done. Over. Finished.
Who needs a stinkin' tag line? What are they for anyway?
I dont know what there is to do
This team just does not have it, they look dead to me, they have no life and Lou needs to go, he should just quit
I don't know either
but someone has to so something. If Lou says after the game “What can you do?” he should be fired.
I love Lou but this year not so much
and that “what can you do?” line drives me insane. That was basically the team attitude after they blew it last year. Inexcusable.
Lou doesnt give a damn
And we have so many holes on this team its hard to say where to begin…
It almost seems like he wants to be fired
Why keep playing Sori and Dome day after day when they are 0-for-the-last-month (or close to it)? Try RJ a little, try Hoff, try anybody! But to just do the same things again and again. To leave Z in when the game is close and he walks Beckham? Why? Lou’s seeming lack of interest is not a good thing for the team. We seem to be settling in as a below-.500 ballclub.
As bad as 06
every bit of it
no way out either……….3 outfielders all of which would not be taken by ANY team in MLB and just think…….we have these assholes for at least 2 more years………5 more of the utterly and completely useless SOB in LF. Seriously………not one of these guys would be picked up by anyone if they were DFA’D today……….not one team would even give them a 2nd thought given their contracts. 09,10 and 2011 seasons are all over. This is the most abysmal job by a GM in the modern HISTORY of baseball. There is no hope for this team……..if you really believe this team can be good…………you are so so wrong.

Zero chance Lou gets fired anytime soon...
They just fired the hitting coach a few days ago. It would be unheard of for them to fire the manager this soon after. I just hope he quits. Like, today.
Only the GM will fire Lou. Hendry won't. And Lou won't quit.

Even though he has sucked as of late, I am still a little shocked that they didnt walk him to face Theriot

I'm not...
Theriot is good at hitting singles, and Soriano has been REALLY struggling.
Agreed
They would have been stupid to walk Soriano, considering how he’s been scuffling.

I'm just saying that I don't want Cleveland to have any late-game leads...
It’d be nice if we won each game. Seeing Kerry on the mound means we’re behind in the 9th.
Let's hope he stays in the pen.
Or maybe just gets an inning of work in a blowout with the Cubs on the winning end.
I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.
Here's hoping
DeRosa goes 1-for-15 and Wood never sees the pitcher’s mound.

Here's hoping this win is the spark the team needed.
Now, why couldn’t they have done that yesterday, when I was actually at the game?

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.
Hopefully the bat is finally waking up
Man, has he been due

Nice to have a great game today.
We were due for a win. Hope this leads to more of them.
See you tomorrow. Have a good night all.
That should be unanimous...
though Soto (HR) and Soriano (two hits including the game-winner and a great fielding play) were not too far off.
The player of the game should be Miles
for not killing the 9th inning rally and just grounding out.
One day I hope to come up with something worthy of this space.
That's why the bunt was so important
It made it almost impossible for Miles to end the inning.
