lets make sure to get this first one. lilly needs to have a good start, and against this lineup were facing, that should not be that hard.

Yep, only 5 games out of the Wild Card and 6.5 games out of the NL Central lead. Let's take advantage of some poor teams.

Thanks for proving me right!

7 games this week vs the Nats and Pitates!
We need momentum into the break.
I want atleast 5-2.
I dream of 6-1.
I'll be walking on sunshine if 7-0!

Man was the crowd loud today at the game.
Every out was a loud applause and every play everyone stood up.
It felt like a playoff game there because everyone was into it.
I can't imagine what it felt like to be at Friday's game or last Monday's game.

This stretch against WASH/PIT will make or break us.

Let's go Cubbies.

This will be the first game I will be able to watch in like a week since my gay work schedule.

I need to round up some people to roadtrip to Pittsburgh with me for a game or two this weekend. Pittsburgh is only like ~250mi from Ann Arbor.

In the meantime, go Cubs!

I am not that nervous. Washington is pretty much horrible and I expect a win tonight. We will take at least 3 out of 4 from them, and at least 2/3 from Pittsburgh.

Just like to throw it out there, this is what I think the Cubs lineup should be.

1. Mike Fontenot
2. Ryan Theriot
3. Alfonso Soriano
4. Aramis Ramirez
5. Derrek Lee
6. Cliff Floyd/Mark Derosa
7. Felix Pie/Angel Pagan
8. Koyie Hill/Rob Bowen
9. Pitcher

What song?
The one in this thread is Go Cubs Go by Steve Goodman I think.

SportsWorld · Post #16 » by **SportsWorld** » Mon Jul 2, 2007 11:12 pm

Aramis doubles bringing in Lee and Theriot.
Cubs lead 2-0!

SportsWorld · Post #17 » by **SportsWorld** » Mon Jul 2, 2007 11:17 pm

Pirates score on a groundout so they lead the Brewers 1-0.
