Do they play at the D'Backs this year? When I lived there the Cubs/DBacks games were always a blast. Usually twice as many Cubs fans than D'Backs fans.
they play every NL team every year. The Cubs vist AZ in early July, the Dbacks come to chicago at the end of april
Zambrano wont get 15 wins....
Lilly wont make 15 starts.....
Soriano will hit .230...
Fukudome will hit .250...
Marmol will be a bust as a closer......

I got in a fight with a kid who kept shoving a sign in my face that said "Cubs have small balls." We were talking shit to each other and the kid made a comment about my wife... bad decision. I took his sign and ripped it up and HE got kicked out!
Yep, I try to make it to every game they are in town for.
You're right though, it's easily 2/3 Cubs fans at Chase Field. You can tell it pisses of D-Backs fans...who by the way are kind of assholes (for whatever reason).
I'm not a fan of Chase Field (waaaaaaay too "Jumbo Tron"), but tickets are a fraction of what they cost at Wrigley!
Zambrano is going to have some type of altercation with the police...
I dont know if it will be a DUI, or a run-in, at some random night club, or maybe a traffic stop....
But at some point this baseball season, Zambrano will be put in handcuffs, and spend a few hours in a jail cell.....
He is emotional but I don't think he is stupid. He might beat up a teammate or a gatorade jug... but I don't think he'll do anything worse than that. We'll see...
Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden. You are free... free to do what the government says you can do.

I agree.
He seems to keep his private life, well...private.
I could actually see him punching out an umpire after a few borderline calls.
He'll get fired up, give up a 3 run homerun after what should have been an inning ending strike out.
On his way to the dugout, he'll have words, the ump will toss him, Z will go nuts and in one punch, the ump is knocked out.
Z gets suspended for half the season.
So Cubs tickets went on sale today to the general public.....I broke down and decided to go to 2 games...
After spending 2 hours in virtual waiting rooms.....I have decided....
The CUBS can take their virtual waiting room, and their virtual tickets, and shove them up their virtual ass....
I wont be going to any games this year.....
How is that different than any other year?
When I lived in Chicago, I remember doing that and getting pissed off so I stopped trying. Much easier to get single game tickets later on...sure, you won't get good seats but it's better than battling other idiots for hours for maybe a couple rows difference.

Its not any different...
I have been through this many times....
I realize I can probably get my tickets tomorrow, or the following day.....
But I wont....
Fuck em.....
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

Yeah, at the end of the year when the Cubs finish 3rd in the NL Central, you'll realize you made a great move in not wasting your money on those clowns.
Unfortunately, I don't have that will-power. I'm certain I'd still try to make it to a few games...
Got my tickets. My buddy got the home opener and the friday sox, and I got the Sat. May Cards game, Fri July Cards game, and Sat Sept Cards game. In addition to that I got most of the games in MIL.

Lower your expectations... this is the Cubs we're talking about. Go to the games, get drunk, and watch them lose.

you sick masochist...let them go...they treat you like shit
Being a Cubs fan....
Is a disease....
It truly is a disease.........
Think about it....I follow a team that hasnt won a fucking thing in over 100 YEARS!!!!
100 FUCKING YEARS???? How is that even possible?? On accident they should have won at least 1 fucking World Series in the last 100 years....The Florida Marlins have won 2?? In the last 15 years??? The Cubs havent won a World Series in over a hundred years???? The Civil War had ended only 30-40 years before, the last time the Cubs won a fucking World Series?? The AIRPLANE had not been invented the last time the Cubs won a World Series???? World War II was still 30 years away, the last time the Cubs won a world Series????
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
100 FUCKING YEARS???? How is that even possible?? On accident they should have won at least 1 fucking World Series in the last 100 years....The Florida Marlins have won 2?? In the last 15 years???
Don't forget the Arizona D-bags . Cubs are #1.....my team, #3 in futility......and you motherfuckers better not win before us!!! Fuck....we'll BOTH be dead.

As a child, I remember my father saying "The Cubs havent won a World Series in my lifetime"....I remember thinking to myself, "Well sooner or later the Cubs will win" "They just cant keep on losing forever"
Well, my father is now in his 70's, His health hasnt been that good the last 3-4 years. I am not sure how many more games him and I will watch together ( I hope a thousand more). And it rips my fucking heart out, that my father, and millions of other Cub fans, who have let themselves be taken in by the Cubs....Will live their lives, without ever seeing the Cubs win ONE FUCKING WORLD SERIES!!!!!
Millions of Cub fans have been born, lived 70-80-90 years, and have died, without seeing the fucking Cubs win a fucking World Series......
I am now 44, I realize that I too, will probably live 70 years, and the Cubs wont win a fucking thing....
Its a disease....

And when Arizona won it all....

I have been to Hundreds of games....
I used to live 9 doors down from Wrigley Field.....
I have spent hundreds of afternoons in the bleachers......
So yes I am a fan....
But I am a fan who is absolutley sick and tired of having these assfucks rip my heart out, every year, and stomp on it.

Yeah, that was my proudest moment as a Cubs fan that I've had in a long time...
A former Cub playing for another team...essentially winning the game in the world series...
Sad.
I get to listen to the game at work......
Life is good, and warm weather is on the way.......
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Nothing like the sound of the first crack of the bat, it just makes you feel warmer.
I love the eternal optimism of a new baseball season.
