WEFFPIM's Tidbits
-With recent news that the "Batman Begins" sequel will film scenes in downtown Chicago, Len Kasper will urinate all over himself prior to spontaneous combustion.
-Johnny Estrada, more than likely returning from his knee injury on Monday night, will take a bat and hit Fielder in the right knee to show him how it feels. However, this will go terribly wrong when the bat does nothing except make Fielder turn green and scream "PRINCEY MAD!!!"
-If the Cubs find themselves down early, they will be in for a surprise when a battery shortage causes the Bleacher Bums to hurl each other onto the field.
-If the Brewers lose, look for misspelled angry bomb threats to surface around Wrigley Field with the signature of only "Intuition."
-Mother Nature, an old hag who's mad that she hasn't gotten any in the last 12 years, will unleash a tidal wave onto Chicago, more than likely preventing this game to be played. You all saw "The Day After Tomorrow" right? Think of that but with much better acting, courtesy of Bill Hall and Geoff Jenkins (courtesy of Road Runner Internet Service).

Good Luck, Ben...and Go Brewers

Game is also on WGN SuperStation. Hey what if the weather is too bad they have to move it to Miller Park. It's a long shot...

Yeah move it to miller park. It'll be better there. Did any of you hear the "lets go brewers" chants at the end of tonights game?

I did. But then the Cubs fans caught on and the chant blurred into "LET'S GO BAHTRESS"

Time to break out the brooms and sweep the Cubs.

The Intuition one is the best imo...followed closely by "Mother Nature"

Oh we miss you Intuition. :usa:

The lefty killer lineup is out and should be ready to pounce. Mench is becoming the big bat that we traded for and the team is rolling. Our club house is loose and having a good time and the Cubs look like factory workers on a smoke break. Enjoy the ride boys, we deserve it.

Another fine edition of WEFFPIM's Tidbits, where do you find the inspiration for such fine work?

I would really appreciate a 10 k, 0 bb, 0 hr outing from Sheets. C'mon Ben, let's get it going.

Delayed start for this one, not sure when the game will get going, but it should get going because the radar looks rather clear around Chicago.

The game is finally started

After 2. 0-0.

Let's get some runs boys.

I think that bad throw was all part of the plan.

Why did Daron Sutton come back?

Lilly owning

Sheets out with a strained right groin. Elmo or Elmer or whatever his name is is now in.

O S**T Sheets leaves with an injury

bigkurty · Post #19 » by **bigkurty** » Wed Apr 25, 2007 8:35 pm

OMG, is Sheets made of glass or something? Does the dude stretch before games or just sit around biting his damn nails?

WEFFPIM · Post #20 » by **WEFFPIM** » Wed Apr 25, 2007 8:37 pm

Is anyone really that surprised? Sheets can deny it as much as he wants, until he pitches a full season, he's injury-prone
