i know it's fun to pick on how horrible
the cubs system has been recently. and not so recently.
but with the production from wells, blanco, scales, hoffpauir, fox, etc…
maybe we are finally teaching our kids the basics.
hopefully the same with thomas, vitters, castro, carpenter, and a bunch more

Two RISP.
And an intentional walk to Blanco, apparently.
Ted Lilly will blow the ball all the way to Lake Michigan for a double Grand Slam.

AFTERNOON, CUBS FANS!
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.

Yeah,
So I was at a party with a girlfriend that worked on his show. She wanted me to meet him. So we stood in line just to meet the guy. She introduces me to him and mentions that I like to golf. So I asked him if he likes to golf himself. And literally he he gives me this horrible attitude like “You could say that since I do host the Bob Hope tournament” A real sneering attitude.
Sorry dude if I don’t follow your every move you make. Just real uncomfortable after that.

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.

He's a comedian.
He has funny stand ups, actually.
Or at least I think they are. Being a Mexican-American and all.

well, most of his jokes are based on his ethnicity. So if you're not latino you might not get his jokes.

Doesn't he have some feud with Carlos Mencia?
He claims Carlos stole his act or something…

One out
fouled off? Wife was talking.
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.
