10:30? As if I needed another reason to dislike Arizona.
-
And that's that. "Bring me the head of Willie Randolph." Quite the collapse on the Mets' part, although I still think a lot of the fans here were overreacting earlier. This doesn't happen without the Phillies catching fire.
-
Maybe I just don't watch enough White Sox games, but it seems like Hawk rambles on about the Sox fans' energy at least once every time I tune in. Glad I flipped over to TBS, where Biggio was coming off the field for the last time. As a Cubs fan, he was a huge pain the ass, but an undeniable HOF'er all the way.
-
Jason Marquis' last few outings make me think the Cubs should just go with a three-man rotation and hope no one's arm flies into the stands.
-
Alfonso Soriano hit his 7th leadoff homer of September. That's just insane. He's still overpaid to an extent, but there's no denying he's one of the best offensive players in the game today when he's riding one of his hot streaks.
-
I'm actually pulling for the Brewers, since I'd rather have to face the Phillies or Mets over the D-Backs. It sounds crazy, but for whatever reason, the Cubs are just horrible against Arizona.
-
The Cubs would have at least two homers today if they weren't playing on a football field with fences.
-
Damn, Czech, I came here to post that EXACT thing.
-
So Taguchi just went up to notch one in my book. I hope Yost thought beaming Pujols with nobody one was worth all of this.
-
I hate Braden Looper. Bout to be a two-game difference in the NL Central.
-
Exactly. There's no conspiracy to keep anyone out or get anyone in the playoffs. It's just stupid umpiring.
-
Cubs 0-1 on this final week. Floyd almost tied it with two down in the ninth, but just one of those nights. These umps are really out of hand, though.
-
If we're going to spout off conspiracy theories about MLB wanting certain teams in the postseason, Andy Fletcher just tossed Aramis Ramirez out of the game. Ramirez was on his way back to the dugout and at least 10 feet away from Fletcher when the ejection came. This followed DeRosa getting jobbed on a called third strike well off the plate.
-
Pretty nice example of a person's past actions blinding someone to the realities of the situation at hand.
-
No... Excellent point. I stand corrected.
-
I hear he took quarter water bottled it for two bucks, then Coca-Cola came along and bought it for billions, what the fuck? Although to be fair, "I Get Money" is one of the album's good songs.
-
Good thing, because it didn't.
-
It was 50's idea, you boob. He's the one who was so confident Ye wouldn't come close to matching his album sales. Guy thinks it's still 2003 and that he's still relevant. He can accuse Kanye of making "safe" music all he wants, but at least West is evolving musically. "Fiddy" is a one-note emcee. He may churn out an assembly line of songs about guns, money, and violence, but it's clear which of the two is making the safe music these days. And it sure isn't Kanye.
-
Matt Stairs probably regrets not engaging in some sort of conditioning program last off-season.
-
Good thing the Braves dumped the farm to build this great team.
-
That was just idiotic leaving Hudson in that long. I understand they don't have anything to play for, but he was clearly gassed by that point.
-
Anyone was gonna get knocked around today, given the conditions. That'd be true if Marquis had been giving up flyballs that landed in the basket. I watched key parts via MLB TV later on and he was just getting lit up. Lots of frozen ropes and nothing really aided by the wind. He's certainly been better than what we could have expected, but I still don't like the prospect of their playoff hopes hinging on his arm.
-
Oh man, I can't believe Marquis is the guy we have to rely on if Game 163 is necessary. But at least they won and everyone should watch the replays for Ramirez' BOMB out of Wrigley.
-
I wish the Cubs would go back to wearing their blue alternative jerseys.
-
Wasn't that just a couple of weeks ago?
