Cubs v. Brewers 9-15-09 -- Live Game Thread

 

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:

user-pic

A very good take. I sincerely hope the team follow reason like this and not fucktard cubs fans.

millertime said:

user-pic

Bruce is as always, the man.

millertime said:

user-pic

The Brewers announcers are talking about how Zambrano isn't an ace. I don't think they like Zambrano at all.

Doc said:

user-pic

Just a wild guess...Z won't be traded to the Brewers.

millertime said:

user-pic

Cool, the Brewers have Batting Stance Guy doing swing impressions. That guy is pretty sweet.

millertime said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

Another wild guess...

Bradley won't be traded to the Brewers.

millertime said:

user-pic

Bases loaded for the Cubs. With failure MB at bat.

gravedigger said:

user-pic

oh, there's a game?

millertime said:

user-pic

oh, there's another poster?

millertime said:

user-pic

Zambrano has some nice zip on his pitches.

millertime said:

user-pic

Zambrano with 4 K's. Looking amaZing tonight.

millertime said:

user-pic

Top baseball story on ESPN right now?

The Red Sox.


??????

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

LOL!!!

Hilarious.

millertime said:

user-pic

Theriot comes through. 1-0 Cubs.

Doc said:

user-pic

Hey, Millertime...are you a little lonely here tonight?

millertime said:

user-pic

so far, yes.

millertime said:

user-pic

Zambrano has great movement on his pitches so far. I hope he can keep it up, he could use a good outing.

millertime said:

user-pic

Another K for Zambrano. WowZer.

millertime said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

YAY.

But damn, did you see my response on the other thread? I was all excited to make a threatening phone call. . .

Maim said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

Just make sure he has proof the dog had it's rabies vaccination. Rabies is very difficult to cure.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

GAH--this night has totally sucked.

Yay, we're winning!

Maim said:

user-pic

D Lee with 100 RBI!

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

I was sooooo wrong about DLee this year.

Derrek! I'm sorry!

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

Oh, what the hell?

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

I heard Judd yelling about it from the other room.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

I think he annoys the shit out of Ron

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

Oh good! Aaron Miles.

millertime said:

user-pic

K I'm back. And everyone has showed up. And now the game is tied? Shit.

millertime said:

user-pic

What happened to Zambrano? He was looking so good.

Carl Heartscubs Gierhan said:

user-pic

Ron said, "He was throwing so well, and then he had two outs, and it was all fastballs!"

Maim said:

user-pic

His creepy mustache made him start pitching like a jag.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

he had a mustache?

damn, i missed it.

stupid soccer practice.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

Has anyone checked on the Gatorade cooler lately? I just saw the score and noticed that Z is gone.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

Oh good, Heilman is in. This should be great.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

miles looks even more like gollum without the facial hair.

millertime said:

user-pic

fishstick joke episode of south park is on.

Carl Heartscubs Gierhan said:

user-pic

Lee's OPS is up to .973

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

wow.

again, i was wrong.

Maim said:

user-pic

Carl! You beat me by one point!

Maim said:

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

duke of earl?

millertime said:

user-pic

As bad as our season is, at least we're not the Brewers.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

Looks like she's gonna be there a loooooong time. Still no outs.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

I like her, and I think she's probably a smart girl, but she doesn't sound that way when she talks.

Maim said:

user-pic

Oh, I guess they ran out of things to talk about; she's gone now.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

Colorado down again early. . . just sayin'

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

Hmm. Sons of Anarchy wasn't all that great tonight.

Maim said:

user-pic

Ummm...people are ripping my ex-bestie on Marc Silverman's facebook page.

Another reason I would NEVER go on national TV.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

was she the one everyone on twitter is saying they are afraid of?

Maim said:

user-pic

I didn't look, but I'm going to go ahead and say yes.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

FIGHT!!!!!!

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

If we go this entire season without a bench-clearing brawl, I'm going to be seriously PUT OUT.

JulieDiCaro said:

user-pic

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:

user-pic

Wow. Spellcheck is bad at baseball.

JulieDiCaro said:

Cubs win!
