But you with all your wisdom posted about it on this site for everyone to know about it. You’ve already sent people to look at it. Way to go!

And apparently blaming THOSE folks

There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
I will delete it
right now
Maybe YOU will consider actually saying something against the pigs who looked at it instead of blaming me.
There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
Well you encourged them
by posting about it in the first place. And I find what happened to her disgusting.
Yes... because
they had NO control over their actions once I pointed it out.
There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
that people would not be sick jerks?
i don’t have any issue with Worf posting news about her. He didn’t link. And clearly marked it as “OT”.
You pass sick news on to friends. At least… I usually do.
And we've talked about EA enough
for her to be Cubs connected, definitely sports connected.
Now, I personally wouldn’t have posted it… but the fact that Worf did and CLEARLY marked it as off topic doesn’t really outrage me.
People posted about when she got hit in the chin by a ball. That was just as unrelated… no one lost their minds about that.
tell you what, my little furry friend...
…if you can give a good reason for posting it in the first place, I’ll quit hassling you.
At least on this issue… ;-)
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
Sure thing
1) Erin Andrews is a newsmaker here. The jokes about her and Micah, for one. Lou made comments about her attire and that caused a minor kerfluffle.
2) I found this to be a galling invasion of privacy, and actually, quite chilling that someone could set up shop outside a hotel room door like this. I wanted to talk to others about it and you guys are people I interact with every day.
There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
1) is a Fail.
Just because someone is relevant to BCB doesn’t mean anything/everything about them is relevant content to be posted here.
2) is debatable. I don’t agree with your logic here. Yes, it’s a galling invasion of privacy, and quite chilling, and despicable, disgusting and lots of other things. Still don’t see the relevance of discussing it here though.
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
Because we discuss things here?
I mean, isn’t it that simple?
There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
all things?
so you’re saying nothing is off limits?
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
Within reason
I think this had to do with sports, with celebrity and with privacy and it outraged me to the point that I wanted to vent.
I deleted it. Maybe now I’ll stop getting the blame for other people’s issues.

sure it is
but that doesn’t mean no one should ever discuss anything other than the cubs.
and if it does evolve into that, i won’t stick around the off topic random stuff is what makes this place worth it.
There is OT all the time
And your credibility on this topic is very lacking

Not trying to get involved here, but...

I think the real issue here is me. That’s what is “sad”

thats why his post was about how outraged he was. And about why he wasn’t going to post a link.

its been huge all day except to Dunn. a lot of these umps that start with big zones early shrink their zones throughout game.
and it is just awful umpiring to change strike zone throughout the game from inning to inning to batter to batter. and he has had smaller zones to the better the hitter and the later the game goes on.

Not much, actually.
He came in with the bases loaded and one out.
Heilman walked the bases loaded after getting an out on one pitch, but the inconsistent strike zone also made things worse than they were.
Cubs record since April 2004: 4-0
by Vermont Cubs Fan on Jul 18, 2009 9:16 PM CDT up reply actions
ya seriously.
But here is how the 8th went. Heilman in, one pitch one out. A walk to pinch hitter. a single by njyer morgn and error by milton allowed runner to get to third. so first n third one out. And walk to nick johsnon on 9 pitches – a lot were very close including ball 4. So with bases loaded one out and Ryan Zimmerman up with Adam Dunn on deck and only a 6-4 lead Lou went and got Gregg. Gregg got lucky cuz he threw a fastball right down the plate that was crushed deep to the warning track in right. Just missing a grand slam. But runner easily tagged to score 6-5. Morgan also tagged to 3rd. so two outs 6-5 morgan at 3rd and nick johnson at 1st. Adam dunn walked to load bases up again. this time bases loaded for Josh Willingahm and gregg was ahead 1-2 but count went to 3-2 and willingham fouled off two 3-2 pitches. and than gregg got him to chase good offspeed pitch that he hit weakly to Aramis right down the line that backed up Aramis. Aramis was too far away to simply tag 3rd since it was 3-2 count 2 outs and runners moving. his only chance was to throw quickly with his momentum taking him away from throw. so the throw was really long and he had to rush. he short hopped it big time. BUT D LEE MADE A HELL OF A SCOOP TO SAVE THE LEAD THE GAME AND EVENTUALLY THE WIN. A GREAT PLAY. AND WE ALL WENT NUTS. Sorry for the long post but hopefully re-created the tension and nerves and than the excitement. cuz heilman was nibbleman and gregg just missed giving up grand slam.

D-Lee started the inning with ground rule double on a bullet into left field. Let us not forget A-Ram’s bullet after that to get him on base and put two men on for fonzi and his crush job. Hopefully that bomb will get him going. Also to see him crush one with such authority to right center. That was no doubter to oppo. But he did miss a hanger right down the plate in his next at bat.

Go, Cubs, go
Go, Cubs, go
Hey, Chicago, what do you say
The Cubs are gonna win today.
Baseball time is here again
You can catch it all on WGN
So stamp your feet and clap your hands
Chicago Cubs got the greatest fans.
You’re singing now …
Go, Cubs, go
Go, Cubs, go
Hey, Chicago, what do you say
The Cubs are gonna win today
Go, Cubs, go
Go, Cubs, go
Hey, Chicago, what do you say
The Cubs are gonna win today.

Always have loved that song and Goodman, it’s just an added bonus it seems to irritate so many cards fans.

The Martinez clan unleashes its bloodcurdling victory call
Blue mountains high .. Blue valleys low
I don't know which way we will go ..
One summer dream .. one summer dream ..

It's not a victory....
Without the cutie sue…falling down on the job?

It was great...really cool to relate to the friendly fans
I just realized that I may need to change where my computer is , cause I have it in another room and it takes me awhile to run back when the game’s on WGN …I have the MLB package for other games.

yeah
its hard to get the right set up.
glad to know you enjoyed it though. :-) winning game threads are way more fun and worth it. losing ones are ugly and very unfriendly.
Well...like many fans here I've sweated through a lot of losing seasons...and not just missing the playoffs
So that’s a big reason I liked reading this site, when you can enjoy watching a losing game you know you have a good sense of humor. There’s usually something to like about watching a game to me regardless.

And the best part about tonight is,
We gained a game on the Cardinals.

They just showed the pic by DLee on WGN...
Man I was watching and i didn’t see Rammy use his bare hand…did everyone else see that real time? Sure was right that Fonty any other Cub would miss that
