11 strikeouts for us tonite. 3 of them courtesy of, yep you guessed it, the 136 million dollar man.

I don't know why Jones plays. Honestly.

No power, no speed, free swinger, hardly works counts, and is putrid in the outfield. It's just sickening.. It really is.

Game is officially over now.

They just brought in Dumpster to give up 3 more runs.

Dumpster in a non save situation.
This should be fun.

I dont know about all of that. Hes got decent power and I'm pretty sure hes got some speed to him. Also, he made many diving catches for us this year (although they shouldn't have had to been diving catches because he just didn't play the ball right off the bat.)
But when he is on he is a pretty good player.

Did Dick just say Lou puts our best defensive players out there with Jones in CF?

I thought Carmen Pignatiello was the sexy name that drew in all the ladies.

Wow, Dempster actually got the job done.

Too bad we'll go 1-2-3 in the 9th.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: You're really helping me get through all this. AA meetings across the world could use your help.


OK, history time. 5 runs in the 9th, i believe, do you?

I believe I am tired so the Cubs better make this painless and go down 1,2,3.
None of this 3 run crap and leaving the bases loaded.

Anyone else wish Mrs. Jones would have taken that load in her mouth instead of conceiving Jacque?

If this **** ass hole starts screaming and making ugly faces after he gets the 3rd out I may lose it.
