Cubs kick ass thread.
Whip 'em thread...for Drew's new movie.
This has been up for 15 minutes ... goodness!!!
Dear tattooed broads in the booth...

shut up.

Please tell me Drew Barrymore isn't the guest conductor for the stretch tonight.
Didn't even let the crowd say "1, 2, 3 strikes"
Good job

Scoring some runs while I was having dinner!

I stronglt dislike Drew Barrymore.

That is all.

explain?
One word, annoying.

Like nails on a chalkboard.

Ubaldo Jimenez struggling with command in SF

Two walks surrounding a single, bases loaded Giants with no outs, bottom 1.

gregg mowed them down 1-2-3

Someone pinch me.

Guess he only gives up 450 foot homeruns

in the 9th inning

again

I finally got a NL game live on my satellite channel, but it’s Rockies at Giants…

hope you didn't have to pay for that !
I am paying

$200 for NHK (yearly), and $30 for SkyPerfecTV-HD (monthly)….

Drew Barrymore's voice is...

almost…I said almost…as annoying as Joe Morgan.

but .. but .. she was a big Red Sox fan!
just for a movie
Meanwhile...there is an actual baseball game being played.
You couldn't tell it by the traffic here
TN Smokies take 5-4 lead in top 10.

Ryno ejected in bottom of the ninth.

Obviously he REALLY wants Lou's job

Sort of like ’Hey I can show FIRE and get kicked out of games. Forget that old geezer. He does not remember how.

Its not Ryan, its Ryne
tied at 5 now
closer Brian Schlitter gave up solo HR with 2 outs in bot 10th
well atleast they did something the big league club couldnt

score 5 runs in a postseason series

did she just say strap on"?
Completely OT:

Hilarious site for some non-game entertainment.

http://peopleofwalmart.com/

for a second, it thought your username was "scrapplastic"

that would have been really appropriate for the link…

oh my god im dying!
That site's hilarious

And sometimes utterly disgusting.

may their bats chip and shatter!
Come on Dome

Hit a long ball!

Agreed.

Genki desu ka?

Today is the historical day for Japan

as we will have new prime minister that ends 50+ years of gov admin by LDP

I heard that in Japan, the opposition party had won the elections.

Is today the first day of the new prime minister?

Right

the opposition is Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) and new leader is Yukio Hatoyama, a Stanford PhD.

Taro Aso is out?

I really need to start paying more attention

AWW LOOK AT THAT DREW PUT A HEART ON THE BALL ^_^
Drew gave Len a heart on?
Giants lead 2-0!!!
Indeed!

Rockies announcers are concerned with how “tight” the team is playing. I’m not sure that’s justified, given that they’re just coming off a nice winning streak, but they are.

3-0 Giants

Ishikawa sac fly

go you old goats !
He walked

good to reach on base in anyway…

And Kosuke Fukudome CLOGS THE BASES once more

Dude ..

Walked! In! The! Run!!!!
Who's pitching?
don't know, but it looks like a long night in the Brewer's bullpen
Now listen, who is not pitching!
Chris Smith?

beats me

On a serious note, it's Chris Smith for Milwaukee.
I think Len has a crush
Giants lead Rockies 3-0 through 1

Jiimenez freezes Rowand with a slider to end the frame. Back to Barry Zito!

this has been fun my fellow cubnationals
even though the cubs are out of it

beating the suds puts a smile on my face

Today's lunch

I and still considering where to go today, but someday I want to get this kinda bento lunch box with some characters are drawn on it….

Wow. I haven't seen that face since the 1970s King Crimson album!
http://users.utu.fi/petolo/crimson/court.html
this would give me nightmares
AVENGE the year again Geo!
Just joining. Looks like I missed a few hits & runs.

Was Carlos MIA again or is the wind blowing out?

He had a bad 5th.

Pitcher up, 2 outs nobody on… then the next 7 batters reached.

Was really rolling up to that point, though.
He was good until there were two out in the fifth.

Then, things got ugly.

and riot made an error

that got changed to no error by the official scorer later

gave up 5 runs in one inning

had two outs, no on, pitcher to bat.

Was really good other than that

He really can't overcome adversity in an inning very well...

This alone keeps him from being a staff “ace”. Too bad.

i guess soto had to stare at strike 3 atleast once tonight
From what I can see the game is going well...

Greetings from Chiang Mai – Eamus Catuli

ok,ok about time for you to come home, isnt it?
Be back home next week - the flight is on Sunday
right on. safe travels.
Thanks from a very very warm place indeed.

Its worse here than Chicago in early August.

Bradley--

I’m cheering for you

We are wasting a great opportunity to score more runs.

No lead is ever safe even if Gregg and Heilman have already been used.

say what?

Bradley just got HBP, forcing in another run.

TAKING ONE FOR THE TEAM!

CUBS LEAD EXPANDS!

The only problem with scoring 12 runs is...

the offense seems to always go into hiding after we have a game like this.

Shhhh

maybe they didn’t hear you

7 of the runs came on HBP or walks

so maybe thats the cubs strategy to prevent that

Dusty remains unhappy

Meanwhile in Jacksonville, Schlitter in trouble for Smokies.

1st and 3rd. 2 outs. 5-5 game.

I haven't been around much lately

So we all hate Zambrano now?

Rabidly hate. Want to trade for Brett Gardner.

Or something.

Brett Gardner?

Good lord, I would rather give Lenny Dykstra another shot. I hear he’s looking for work

Well, that's what the fanpost said.

I’m not convinced.

We already have Brett Gardner

possibly two of them. Reed Johnson and Sam Fuld.

Don't hate Z at all. Just wish he'd grow up.
or pitch with more concentration and less emotion when things go wrong.
we have a pitching coach who knows how to communicate with him (?)

one day, hopefully, someone will get through to him.

the talent is there, but he just can not harness the emotions.

shake Z and Wells up in a bag and you would have Cy Young.

True Cubs fans never hate Zambrano

They may object strenuously .. but they will never hate.

Rockies don't score in the 2nd

Through 1-1/2, Giants up 3-0. Zito looks sharp, for what it’s worth.

6-5 Final

Jacksonville walk off single.

nooo
Schlitter was one strike away from a 1-2-3 inning.

He just lost it.

who does that remind me of.....

who…

oh please, don't remind me.

I was at that game.

no not that game...

it was more recent…

All right

I am going off to lunch, and your win is secured!

Caridad in to pitch.
Someone else gonna post it?
I'm going off to bed. This win better be secured
If they lose , we will blame YOU !
deadbirds just lost
Definitely coming back to earth...
can't clinch

With this win, the Cubs will now ensure that the Deadbirds cannot clinch against us no matter what ahppens the next two days.

atleast something positive came out of this

i dont know if i could handle the deadbirds clinching against the cubs

Corey Patterson grounds into a force out.

The finest seven words in the English language.

WTF? When did CP sign with Milwaukee?
Mid-season, after he was released by the Nats
Has he been in their minor leagues until now?
correct
Ah. OK. Guess I can get my CP Lugnuts bobblehead back out of the closet...
Wait, Corey Patterson?

Damn you, WGN, for not covering this game.

Maybe in 2009

not in 2002-05

Still 3-0 Giants through 2

Jimenez strikes out the side.

Batters on both sides have been jawing with the home plate ump on 3rd strikes.

Can't stick around

If anyone wants to use this, please do…

Got it ready.
Thanks... Be "seeing" you guys/gals soon again.

Eamus Catuli

Have a safe trip home.
and the Sudsers go down without a whimper
can i have a score please?

Thanks in advance

12-5 Cubs. Mid 8th.
Middle of the 8th .. Cubs 12 .. Brewers 5
John Axford?

Who is this guy?

An pitcher from A ball.
I hate to pick nits...

… but doesn’t the ball usually come from the pitcher?

You remember him! Drives a Mustang. Likes hatchets...
anyone warming up in Cubs bullpen?
hahaha....Brewers defense
good to know you can still count on some things
is this lead shark proof?
3 more runs and yeah.
God I hope so.
yes, one grand-slam limit though
Shark up for the 9th
Jeff Baker singles again!
And as always, MLB.TV is 90 seconds behind reality...
boy I hope he just brings it and ends it
This is the most unlikely scenario.
I'm not listening to you

Rockies on the board

Gonzalez RBI single up the middle, 3-1 in the top of the third, 2 outs.

3-1 Gigantes, mid-3

Zito gets Helton with one o’ them big curveballs.

I see Kendall got pulled?
Theriot with 4 walks today
That's being patient...
good thing his 2 "errors" did hurt us.
Issued?

(wouldn’t shock me)

come on DOME

smack one right into the batters eye!

fukuchopper reportin fa duty
What's up, home chickens?
Cluck, cluck...
We're busy trying to not get nervous about Jeff pitching with less than a double digit lead.
not doing too good either

Well, I don't think anyone's ever had a triple-digit lead

So we’ve got to live with it, I guess.

Braves won, Marlins won. Either Giants or Rockies will win.

Exactly what the f—- is the point?

Next year's schedule is already out? Len & Bob are talking about it...
Al already put up a fanpost or something
Man. I gotta get out more...
Al made a post about it earlier today.

Yet another bizarre schedule.

wtf? that's enough of that tonight
yeah .. dlee clogs the bases once more!
Lee ties Theriot with his fourth walk
somewhere Dusty remains displeased

13-5 hope they save some for tomorrow
Walked! In! Another! Run!!!!!!
We sure caught the Brewers at the right time.
On to the 9th.
don't mess with the Hoff

He knows karate
He knows kung-fu
You mess with him
He’ll mess with you!

Shark in. Fins to the left. Fins to the right...
single up the middle
Gerut singles to center...
He's just setting up the blown DP by Theriot.
Nah

Nice long triple to RF

Frank C. triples off the wall. Run scores.
Looks like I

will be stuck Brewers announcers tomorrow night. Damn you WICU!!!

I LOVE YOU SHARK
That's one of you...
Bases loaded, nobody out again for the Giants

Jimenez hit Molina with a pitch. His pitch count is through the roof.

Where is Marshall????
the University?
No, Sean Marshall.

When exactly was the last time he pitched?

West Virginia, I think
In the middle of Michigan near Battle Creek...
Sac FC

Do those exist?

Hart out 4-3. Run scores. 13-7 Cubs. One out.
shark is trying to make this a save opp
I'm just telling myself that he's laying strikes in there and trusting his defense.
they are falling apart in the Suds' lair ..

I loved this remark ..

 Clearly the Cubs really, really want us to have a early pick in the draft next year.

They’re so thoughtful.

Where did they say that?
some more hearts and flowers

I still have to suffer going to St Louis for the final season and Wrigley on Thursday. When we booked it, we figured it hopefully would be significant, but now it seems I’ll need a lot of come backs or "Brewers suck"…

Suggestions?

5-1 SF

2-run double by Uribe. Still no outs in the 3rd.

When a pitcher throws a “lethal weapon” at that speed at a player, he deserves everything he gets. If you were a great player and a great team, you wouldn’t have to stoop to those tactics out of frustration and jealousy to get a win. Show some class and sportsmanship for the fans and kids you’re a role model to. Big bucks doesn’t excuse human decency and fair play. Yankees – don’t buy into that trash – keep your class and team above that and shake off the retaliation. Leave it to the umps to deal with the low tactics dealt you and show the other teams why you’re #1 with talent and hard work. Keep your eye on the prize! Don’t blow it now for punks!


yankees fans are so caring…
I wouldn't exactly call a baseball a "lethal weapon."
Ray Chapman would like a word. So would Tony Conigliaro...
Aaron Heilman in line for the W
ewwww .. but I will take a Cubs win no matter who pitches
Walk. One on. Grabow now throwing in the pen.
PF pops out. 2 out. Braun stays at 1st. 2 out.
Braun takes 2nd on indifference...
CUBS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gamble Ks. Game over. Cubs win 13-7.
Cubs Win!

excellent!!

I never tire of this one!!

Past my bedtime folks. See you tomorrow.

GO CUBS!

PHEW .. now to the recap on BBT . and BED
Thanks for the bday gift Cubbies!
thank you thank you thank you
If the Rockies lose maybe the Cubs playoff odds rise

to 1.5 . Call me when it gets over 10

The Cubs can get to 4 out in the loss column if the Rockies lose.

2 1/2 weeks to go. Stranger things have happened…

I am trying to avoid that feeling but it is hard

To quote a great movie line " Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in"

God, I love this game
What's that tricks name again?
Bernie

Berton? Milnie?

something like that
Bernie Brewer...
Go Cubbies....

night all…..

RBI infield hit Giants!

7-1

THE CHICAGO CUBS HAVE

As so many runs were scored on BBs and HBPs...

I’d say the Brewers’ pitchers have Cub Power.

All right, guys!

Time for me to eradicate this cold for good! See you tomorrow morning!

Z snaps at reporters and storms out of the press room.

“No, I don’t want to be traded. What kind of a question is that? That’s it!” he says, stomping off, after a reporter asks him if he wants to be traded.

The saga continues…

What kinda stupid-ass question is that?

Seriously. Good for Z.

I agree. He was

really pissed and I don’t blame him.
