I’m no good at statistics, but I believe the Cubs will be watching the post-season on TV with the rest of us. (Note to readers: it is extremely unlikely that any of the Cubs will be coming to your house. Perhaps Spellcheck, but only if you have a kegger.)
We stand 6.5
back with 20 games remaining, so have optimism if you want. I choose whiskey.
That said, I still want them to win. Win, damn you!
Figure the lineups out yourselves. I have whiskey to attend to.

Bruce Miles with a good take on the trade Big Z situation
gravedigger said:
A very good take. I sincerely hope the team follow reason like this and not fucktard cubs fans.
millertime said:
Bruce is as always, the man.
millertime said:
The Brewers announcers are talking about how Zambrano isn't an ace. I don't think they like Zambrano at all.
Doc said:
Just a wild guess...Z won't be traded to the Brewers.
millertime said:
Cool, the Brewers have Batting Stance Guy doing swing impressions. That guy is pretty sweet.
millertime said:
All we need is Bruce Miles to write an article about how the Cubs should hire Scarlet Johanson and Maggie Gyllenhaal.
millertime said:
"Milton Bradley has had a terrible season. A disaster for the Cubs"
Thanks Brewers announcers.
Doc said:
Another wild guess...
Bradley won't be traded to the Brewers.
millertime said:
Bases loaded for the Cubs. With failure MB at bat.
gravedigger said:
oh, there's a game?
millertime said:
oh, there's another poster?
millertime said:
Zambrano has some nice zip on his pitches.
millertime said:
Zambrano with 4 K's. Looking amaZing tonight.
millertime said:
Top baseball story on ESPN right now?
The Red Sox.
??????
JulieDiCaro said:
LOL!!!
Hilarious.
millertime said:
Theriot comes through. 1-0 Cubs.
Doc said:
Hey, Millertime...are you a little lonely here tonight?
millertime said:
so far, yes.
millertime said:
Zambrano has great movement on his pitches so far. I hope he can keep it up, he could use a good outing.
millertime said:
Another K for Zambrano. WowZer.
millertime said:
K, I'm gonna leave and get grocieries. Groceiraerjha;re;ois. Spelling words correctly is overrated.

Where is Maim? F/U on the wound....
Maim said:
It ain't so bad. I hope.
I haven't looked at it today. I'm pretty sure, though, that it is past emergency room stage.
I got what I wanted, though. The landlord tore the jerk a new asshole and he isn't allowed to board dogs anymore. Which COULD lead to his moving out, since I'm pretty sure that's a huge part of his income.
He also isn't allowed to yell at me in the stairwell anymore.
JulieDiCaro said:
YAY.
But damn, did you see my response on the other thread? I was all excited to make a threatening phone call. . .
Maim said:
I did! I found it both exciting and terrifying.
It's not like me to be so intimidated by anyone. I think it's because he lives downstairs from me and there's no getting away from him.
canopygrl said:
ok, make sure it doesn't make your arm fall off. I know you like pirates and all.. but,
Just watching it for oozing and streaking, pain radiating from the wound (like you fingers).
Maim said:
If there is any indication that I might need professional medical care, I will go to the hospital (and then do all the things Julie told me to).
JulieDiCaro said:
Just make sure he has proof the dog had it's rabies vaccination. Rabies is very difficult to cure.
JulieDiCaro said:
GAH--this night has totally sucked.
Yay, we're winning!
Maim said:
D Lee with 100 RBI!
JulieDiCaro said:
I was sooooo wrong about DLee this year.
Derrek! I'm sorry!
JulieDiCaro said:
i'm pretty sure spellcheck would come to your house for some jello shots, you don't have to waste money on a whole keg. and he'll wear a von dutch hat and no shirt.
Carl Heartscubs Gierhan said:
How 'bout them Cubs?
JulieDiCaro said:
hey--i'm going to do something to this page. let me know if you start getting popups OR if you were already getting popups.
JulieDiCaro said:
Oh, what the hell?
JulieDiCaro said:
GEO!!!!
Okay, I know that was a little late, but I'm flipping between Cubs and UEFA CL on my new ATT Uverse thingamabob. Still no MLBnetwork, but I'm loving all the rest of it. I have FOUR soccer channels!
Carl Heartscubs Gierhan said:
I heard Judd yelling about it from the other room.
JulieDiCaro said:
I just said on Twitter that I was glad I'm not listening to the radio. I can only imagine how excited that HR made him.
Maim said:
I'm okay with Judd I guess, except for that he laughs hysterically at everything Santo says whether it was funny or not.
JulieDiCaro said:
I think he annoys the shit out of Ron
Edelweiss said:
Did you know that you can watch some European soccer games on their websites. I like to watch Bayern München, Inter, and Lazio, among others, but sometimes you have to stay up all night.
JulieDiCaro said:
i usually watch on justin.tv, which is online streaming audio. though sometimes you have to watch in a foreign language. i'm a chelsea and ac milan girl.
Maim said:
They said on both TV and radio that it was Drew Barrymore, but neither mentioned the skaters singing with her. It'd suck to be bumped from your lifelong dream. Ouch.
Maim said:
Oh good! Aaron Miles.
millertime said:
K I'm back. And everyone has showed up. And now the game is tied? Shit.
millertime said:
What happened to Zambrano? He was looking so good.
Carl Heartscubs Gierhan said:
Ron said, "He was throwing so well, and then he had two outs, and it was all fastballs!"
Maim said:
His creepy mustache made him start pitching like a jag.
JulieDiCaro said:
he had a mustache?
damn, i missed it.
stupid soccer practice.
JulieDiCaro said:
Has anyone checked on the Gatorade cooler lately? I just saw the score and noticed that Z is gone.
JulieDiCaro said:
Oh good, Heilman is in. This should be great.
JulieDiCaro said:
you know how you get a new cable/satellite system and you have to re-learn all the channels and the remote and everything?
i'm afraid to leave the Cubs game, i might never find CSN again.
JulieDiCaro said:
miles looks even more like gollum without the facial hair.
millertime said:
fishstick joke episode of south park is on.
Carl Heartscubs Gierhan said:
Lee's OPS is up to .973
JulieDiCaro said:
wow.
again, i was wrong.
Maim said:
Carl! You beat me by one point!
Maim said:
Gross.
JulieDiCaro said:
duke of earl?
millertime said:
As bad as our season is, at least we're not the Brewers.
JulieDiCaro said:
Tell ,me when I can turn back to the game without having to hear Drew Barrymore's vapid thoughts. I can't watch until she's gone.
Maim said:
Looks like she's gonna be there a loooooong time. Still no outs.
JulieDiCaro said:
I like her, and I think she's probably a smart girl, but she doesn't sound that way when she talks.
Maim said:
Oh, I guess they ran out of things to talk about; she's gone now.
JulieDiCaro said:
Colorado down again early. . . just sayin'
JulieDiCaro said:
Hmm. Sons of Anarchy wasn't all that great tonight.
Maim said:
Ummm...people are ripping my ex-bestie on Marc Silverman's facebook page.
Another reason I would NEVER go on national TV.
JulieDiCaro said:
was she the one everyone on twitter is saying they are afraid of?
Maim said:
I didn't look, but I'm going to go ahead and say yes.
JulieDiCaro said:
FIGHT!!!!!!
JulieDiCaro said:
If we go this entire season without a bench-clearing brawl, I'm going to be seriously PUT OUT.
JulieDiCaro said:
Because I haven't annoyed you guys with this today:
Don't forget to come hang out with me and some free scotch. Level 3 of Mark Shale 9/24 from 5-7 pm. If you don't come, Al Qaeda wins.
JulieDiCaro said:
Wow. Spellcheck is bad at baseball.
JulieDiCaro said:
Cubs win!
