Well, if you're going to use the "they're human" excuse... :p

I just thought that with that payroll and that amount of talent, they should win every single year. I won't label them as underachievers like the Braves are, but I think they should have had enough to get by the Angels, etc...

Chicago kicking a$$ already. 4-0 in the first. Don't fret Doucheman, we both know when I wish someone luck it turns around to bite them...hahaha. So you'll hear no "Go Cubbies" from me. Maybe a...
"Go Marlins ". How's that?

Wow! What a 3rd inning. Sorry Doucheman. I will keep my lips zipped from now on. I think that reverse curse that Geoff has is contageous.

I hate to say it, but I think Boston is a bit behind with they pitching staff really used up a bit with these last games.
I hated to see the Cubs lose last night. That was some game!

Looks like we will see some more good baseball this year!

I wonder if I could get my jinx going tonight. Let's see.

"Let's go Yankees, let's go". *clap, clap.

Actually, the cheer worked just fine beings I was doing one of your reverse curses to make the Yankees lose. :p

Now that's more like it!

Would you mind saving some of those runs for the rest of the series???!!!

In other words, (preparing myself for another imitation, ahem ahem)...

"You wouldn't want to blow your load before Wood starts!"

:p

Maybe blowing their load eliminates all the bottle up stress. It's gotta be released some way.

Now, see what happens when I keep my big mouth shut and don't watch the games! I'll do all my yelling on the inside.

Big game tonight...

Go Cubbies!

*My lips are sealed!

Thanks Bethie! I'm sure Wood appreciates it! :p

Hmmm... I wonder where plaw is these days...

Wood needed someone else to go deep tonight. Don't you hate it when you can't finish?

Is Miguel Cambrera (sp) like 15? I don't think he even has facial hair. I think it should be a rule that if you can't shave, you can't be a Major League Baseball Player.

Someone's Wood got a bit limp there in the 7th... he didn't look pumped up enough.

"Cock"

Randall Simon Says...

Why don't you just call him a dick, Geoff? You know you want to. :p

Nice language!! :rolleyes:

I already posted this on the yahoo board, but figured why not keep it here for prosperity

Real Quotes.

All from http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-nlcs-cubs

"As the ball left Ivan Rodriguez's bat, Kerry Wood doubled over, his head hanging in despair."

"Wood mastered the Braves as few other pitchers have"

"With action beginning in the bullpen, Wood retired Rodriguez on a swinging strikeout with three straight sliders. Maybe he would get through this."

"When Wood saw the ball fly past first baseman Eric Karros, scoring the go-ahead run, he bent over"

"That would be the end of Wood's night, and he walked off the field with his head bowed."

2 - 1, BABY! The Cubbies should just end it in Florida by taking three straight.

Limp Wood, limp Borowski for that matter, but Doug Glanville saves all!

In a statistic that Plaw would appreciate, Borowski blows a save but gets the win. I hate when that happens... most of the time!

I knew they would win because I stopped watching it in the 7th. Aren't you glad I had to get up early to send my daughter off to college, DB? I told you if I don't watch it, they win. So I guess maybe I'll just wait and see the results on the bb.

Nice language!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

/QUOTE]

See what happens when "the lady" of the board isn't here to keep me in check. :p

3 - 1, BABY! Zambrano needs to take care of business and we're good to go!

Sorry, DB. Go get 'em next time.

Like I said in the Pickem thread, terrible sports weekend for me (or maybe just a terrible Sunday).

Bears lose... My picks were terrible in Pick'em. Cubbies fail to sweep in Florida. Ugghh.

At least I beat Plaw! Barely.

I can't keep track of what Playoff games are when. I thought the Cubbies were supposed to play yesterday? When do they play next? I only ask so I know when to keep my TV off.

Game tonight, Crab Cake! Prior is going for the Cubbies!

Afternoon Yanks-Sox game today also!

Yankees game is this afternoon? Good! I can watch who punched who on the news tonight.

No Wood tonight? I guess they're anticipating if they need a game 7.

You know I'm rooting for you underneath my breathe, right DB?

I know you're rooting for the Cubbies, Bethie!

Yep, no Wood tonight. If all goes as planned tonight, Wood will be used for Game 1 of the World Series.

Oh, so they only pump up their Wood for the big outtings?

There is an Alex Gonzalez on both the Cubbies and the Marlins teams? Unbelievable! I knew there were alot of Gonzalezes and Rodriquezes in baseball, but that's just freaky. Then there's that whole Castilla/Castillo factor. I'm never gonna learn all these guys. What have you got me into, Buffy? :rolleyes:
