2008-07-24 01:30:00
So, any ideas? I'm pissed. You're pissed. We're all pissed. Fact of the matter is, teams go through slumps just like hitters. When it comes, it sucks, and it feels like this is the worst team ever that can't do a damn thing rightandLeehitsinto1,000DPsandA--Ramcan'thitanythingandwhycan't-youscoreonedamnrunwhenHardenstr-ikesout10and.... Well, you get the idea. So, the good news is that the team is still in first place (barely) and is about to go home for four games, where they've played exceptionally well. It sure would be nice to win tonight though, so here's some suggestions (feel free to vote in the comments). What would most help this team get back on track? 1. We could get them a live rooster and/or candlesticks. 2. Since they're in Arizona, have Mark Grace come over and mention the importance of "slumpbusters." 3. Bench the entire team and call up AAA Iowa for three days. 4. (Insert your own suggestion here). Oh, and also, King Sori is reportedly back tonight, which is...

The Cubs are trying for the sweep, hoping to finally win Mom's love.   Speaking of mothers, you can help sponsor Julie in the Avon breast cancer walk, which would be a great way for you to make up for all the bad things you do.  You know what I mean.

Game Thread: Diamondbacks at Cubs: 1:20 P.M. CT/2:20 P.M. ET:Sweep the Leg
2008-05-09 18:00:00
The Cubs have lost seven of their last ten games and today play the Arizona Diamondbacks, the best team in the league. Last year, the Chicago Cubs were swept from the playoffs by these guys.  Today I say we start a little sweeping of our own. Sweep the Leg, Lilly The Pitchers The Cubs send Ted Lilly to the mound.  Since his last start, Ted Lilly (2-4, 5.97 ERA) has been using an advanced montage technique washing cars and trimming bonzai trees.  He is ready. I don't wish to alarm anyone, but Ted Lilly has really improved in his last three starts.  He has an ERA of 2.84 through those games, and 15 strikeouts and 7 walks in 19 innings.  That's more like the Ted Lilly we met and fell in love with last year, and I trust that is the Ted Lilly we will see today.  If anyone can turn this team around, it's Lilly. Ted Lilly is a Capricorn, and his horoscope is: A mob of torch-wielding villagers will soon gather outside your home, which is odd, as you don't...

Diamondbacks Call Up Max Scherzer
2008-04-28 07:15:00
