If I had a ticket to game 3 of this series I would boo the hell out of this team.
They don't even look like an MLB team out there.

I keep track of the results of this series on a dry erase board that I keep on my fridge. See... my girl doesn't have it in her to stay up until midnight to get the final score, so she checks it in the morning when I am asleep.

Am I less of a fan considering I just updated the sign to read "Cubs vs. D-backs", with a "0 - 2" right below it?

I feel like I am, even though I know I'm right. Hell, who am I kidding? I did it because it would be one of those great moments in life if I had to go in and correct it in a couple of hours.

Not likely though.

no. you can't boo. thats been my biggest pet peeve of all time. booing your team at home. can't stand it.


Has anybody else noticed how CHicago has the most flip floppy fans ever? 2 days ago we were going to win the WS now we are going to boo at home in the playoffs. solid guys. that will help a lot.

I'm reading about the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 for constitutional law class, and it's better than watching that atrocity of a game.

Stop getting your hopes up.
Dounut Boy won't do anything this offseason and Prior will get hurt in spring training.
Typical Cubs.

If there is anything positive to come of all this I think we may have found our catcher for the next 5-8 years.

If I am overreacting, I apologize. From Damon Berryhill to Koyie Hill... I've always had a soft spot for young Cub catchers... hoping they'd eventually find their star.

I know jo jo. I've been saying this for a couple weeks now. I see a very bright future for Geo. He needs to keep the weight off though.

If we win... I'll order you a pizza*, on my charge card, from your favorite pizza joint.

*this offer is only valid if I determine, through scientific evidence, that you going to bed was the sole reason for the Cubs comeback victory.

Return to Chicago Cubs
