Final winning thread.
Final? Cubs not winning again ever?
Final -- as in this is the last of today's winning threads :-)
That sounds better.
who you calling a dork?

I resemble that remark!

& thanks for the jump!

Cubs win thread.
haha we got called dorks
MWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA
I fall for it EVERY TIME!!
I resent that

I am obviously a geek

what about us nerds?
Rise up and fight with me!
I'll retract my words.

I didn’t mean to offend the geekerati.

I shall call everyone “chump” from now on. That’s pretty inclusive of everyone.

I've been called worse.
I've deserved worse

and responded to it. :-)

hey meat, who you calling chump?

this is going downhill fast

Glad to see we're all in a good mood tonight
Wasn't the line(s)

“I’m not your friend, buddy!
I’m not your buddy, guy!
I’m not your guy, friend!”

How many jumped because the dork commander ordered it?
well of course, I did
Go Derrek

get the cycle

I don't just jump when someone points it out

But being called a dork… grrrrr. I had to prove myself!

Glad I gave you all a jolt to the ego.
Better than a swift kick in the

crotch.

what's gotten into dome? he wants to be an offensive threat?
He's Japanese, they have a lot of pride & determination.
boooo!!!!!

Dlee walks. Give him something to hit, you, you,dork!

this is in danger of becoming the dork thread
Aramis just got dorked by that pitch

sorry

as long as it did actually HIT his dork
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa!!

there HAS to be a line!
you dork!

hahaha, i just realized that i left off 2 important letters and a punctuation mark

should have read: as long as it didN’T actually HIT his dork.

Now I just feel like a big meanie.

Damn, I must admit I love Derrek Lee...
I'm not afraid to admit that.
Is there some kind of club we could join?

that would make official.

The reports of the demise of Derrek Lee are greatly exagerrated... CLUB!
Bases loaded due to HBP.
mickey mouse PHing for hurlman
The Wonder Hampster
Mickey gonna do some damage

Pat: “Cubs looking to break it wide open”
Ron: “Where we can relax”
Pat: “For you to relax Ronnie we would need 30 runs”

So true, Pat. So true.
30 runs and a sedative
Fontenot sac fly.

Cubs 10, Brewers 2!

Okay, Colvin,

Raise your RBI total!!!!

AND get back over .500!!
Is it...

…Baker or Colvin batting? GD says Colvin…so what happened to Baker?

Nevermind...

…it caught up with Baker’s RF fly out.

Baker flied out
It sometimes has trouble with those one-pitch outs.
True...

…thanks to all three of you. Being stuck in Missouri on cable makes it a challenge. Thank God for this place to keep it going :)

Believe me,

I usually come here for the game threads.

Typically, MLB Gameday does have some problems, so if it stalls, I can almost always come here and see from comments what has happened in the game.

Such as right now, Gameday is showing one out, bottom 8

And I have no idea how that out was recorded.

Hey NBF

How’s Rosemary or rather NBF how NOT is Rosemary ?
( this cryptic message understood only by anyone watching the Brewers broadcast crew)

Okay ... I was wondering about that.

OT: I am going to the Cubs-Giants game on Saturday.

I'm watching it.
I'm not watching it, Jess

I’m listening to Brewers radio. Uecker actually has been pretty entertaining.

The Brewer TV

guys have not been bad.

Answered letter from a fan

Asking what player say to umpires when they step in the box. Some silly chatter and then they say clever ones research
umpire in their media guide ( who knew but umpires have a media guide) and ask them about golf, family etc then close on the REAL BF and they say his wife’s name is Rosemary so they ask “how is Rosemary”

Ok, gotta walk to the market... Hold down the fort ya'll...
Consider it held, Jimmy!
Make this short and sweet Berg..
4 pitches, 4 strikes, 2 outs so far
That's what I like :D
and i jinxed him
there goes his no-hitter
But he still got the third out.

On to the ninth!

That's okay. He

got out of it with no damage.

All right!
did you see me walk in with my frozen yogurt?
Yes, and I want some of it. :D
It might melt by the time I get it to Iowa :-(

I got to hear Uecker call the Gerut DP. He is so funny. Whenever it is a play that goes against the Brewers there is dead air for 5 seconds before he says anything. Its like he hopes if he doesn’t say anything he can change or delay the result.

I need to go home and stop leaving mildly inappropriate messages for the BCB community to read

Enjoy the rest of the game, y’all. May it be win #2 of a 15 game winning streak!

Good night!

PS: Where you at along the West Coast?

He got out of it

Go Berg!!!

Hey, kids

Doing well, I see…

Hey Clutch.

Aramis Ramirez hit a home run tonight, and DLee hit a two-run shot!

So far, so good.
S'up Clutch?
Not much

I crashed out early last night, so I owed the GF a little time tonight. Made dinner, watched “House”, put her to bed.

put her to bed? what are you doing here?
She's gotta be up at 6 tomorrow

So she’s sleeping. I get to sleep in a little later.

I see. Glad to have ya then
I think you all can bring 'er home

Gotta get back to work. Goodnight, all (even you morons) :-)

Safe travels, VCF, and enjoy your trip, and the games.

Good night there.

Thanks for the well wishes … have a great time tomorrow!

Wait, wait, wait.

Shouldn’t it be" Morans"?

hee
one "hee"

Not bad Blue W.

Amp it up a notch, and you might get the full double hee.

I have something to shoot for!
Good day Bruce!
Ronnie says

If Theriot swings at the first pitch hes gonna have a talk with him

And he probably will.
There's some patience for you ... an 8-pitch walk!
well looks like I followed a good game tonight

Colvin had a pretty solid debut

That's pronounced "De Butt", right?
now theriot draws a walk...

taking a page out of the Sosa book of useless stat-padding

No cycle for Lee
What happened?

I’m stuck in gameday hell!

I like your Len Kasper quote
Thanks

He just said it the other day

I think you

left the s off of sound…unless that is what Len actually said.

Who's coming in to pitch?
Miles
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

it IS gameday hell!!

So.....

1960s we had Banks
1970s we had (I guess…) Billy Williams
1980s we had Sandberg
1990s we had Sosa
2000s we had…Lee??

Probably more like a Lee/Rami

That’s how we’ve always identified.

Works for me

Although we got Rami two years before Lee.

true, I guess you could add Ramirez tehre

and Grace for the 1990s. But If I had to chose only one hitter, I gotta say it’s Lee. He’s been the most consistent and besides that freak injury, been relatively healthy

& Rami was clutch even when Lee had the off years.
Has D Lee

ever hit for the cycle?

Not for the Cubs
let's get a DP so I can throw on House in a few minutes...

(West Coast start)

Not the greatest episode

But definitely not the worst. The real question is whether we’ll see any of the new characters introduced in it ever again.

I loved Kal Penn's character...too bad he went to DC.
thanks for the head's up on it.
good running by Lopez!

House start time looking good!

Lopez wants to beat the traffic and sacrifices himself on the bases

Theriot a little jealous

CUBS WIN!!!!!!!
Cubs win!!!!! Click it!!!!!

DERREK LEE AND ARAMIS RAMIREZ HAVE....

yes, yes they do
Berg continues to put up goose eggs

He was one of the acquisitions from the DeRo trade, wasn’t he?

BTW

Where was SWL? And Drew?

They have lives
Sucks for them!
Haha, yeah, they probably do

But they make the BCB’er’s life a bit more…awesome.

And I don't know the web address of Drew's unicorn.

I can find the old one with the lollipops. But the one which has the lollipops replaced with Cubs logos, I don’t know where that one is.

Most of the time, more than just a little.
Night guys
Good night to you.

I’m off as well, good night everyone.

Here's the remaining one, for Drew

Just woke up and find a victory!

First double digit score for the Cubs on the road since July.

Players laughing it up in the clubhouse and playing relaxed. With all that’s transpired over the last 48 hours: coincidence?

You be the judge.

But if these guys go on a 14-game winning streak and finish with 90 wins, people are going to ask the question to Jim Hendry: “What took you so long?”

14 Game winning streak? The Cards go on a skid?? It's happening???

To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub…
