Avoid the sweep! End the road trip on a good note!!

This is going to be the best game of the season
Why? Because it’s one of the very few I’m able to actually watch — with Len & Bob, no less. I am willing this game to be like pre-post 2008 Cubs. The vibes I’m sending are strong. Go Cubs (dammit!)
I hope you are
correct Em. How are ya?

At this point
I’m just hoping the games are interesting. Losing pitching duels every day is unbelievably boring.

I hate to add up how many innings the Cubs have had 1st & 2nd and no one out
and FAILED to score a single run. That has to be the defining inning of this year’s team, to me.

Don't shoot the messenger:
PWSullivan What does it say about Big Z that the Cubs didn’t fly him to L.A. to be with his team these last three games? Hmmmmm.
One day I hope to come up with something worthy of this space.
It says that
Paul Sullivan is an asshat
Jerry’s been so distant lately and Lovie barely calls.- Just Dave
it says he was at Wrigley yesterday, throwing in a practice session.
couldn’t see him, but I heard the catcher’s mitt snapping. it sure sounded good.
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
they don't want him tweaking his back on the way
and in a strange bed?
Kevin Gregg is the Mother F'n Anti-christ!
Update:
RT @CarrieMuskat: No Soriano. Sore left knee, that bothers him when he runs. He’s day to day #cubs

Vinnie on Fuld's attempt to catch Ethier's fly ball:
“What makes Sammy run? Ramirez did with a long fly Friday night, Brad Asmus did when Fuld made a marvelous catch yesterday and now he gives his all on a pop fly by Ethier.”
80 years old
and still has plenty on his fastball. LA and baseball will miss him when he’s gone. (Supposedly, next season’s going to be it for him.)

Cards up 4-0
So now it’s a must win to stay 8 games back.
There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
I'm normally an optimist,
But I’ve nearly given up on chasing down the Cardinals this year. My biggest hope is that in some way, the Cubs can chase down San Francisco and Colorado in the wild card this year.
