If I had to be a vendor, I would be the cotton candy vendor

your sales would suck at wrigley.

there are a couple of wrigley that carry two cases of beer at a time. they go pretty fast.

Yeah, and people get mad when they see some guy selling cotton candy when he could be selling beer instead!!! I know I do!

fuck, here comes the foam bear hand guy....fucker, go get me a beer.

even worse is when the beer guy come by empty.

Yeah, to me the whole idea of the vedors in the stands is for the "Shit, I just ran out of something and I don't want to miss the game to get another". I just can't see that happening with the foam hand. 7th inning, close game...you look over and see the foam hand guy and all of a sudden need to have one!

On days like this, I think they should have a koosie guy. A koosie that would hold one of those plastic cups of beer. They could market them as Official Bleacher Koosies. They'd make a fortune!!! Hell, I'd buy one from the koosie guy!
I've had a couple experiences of being glad I didn't drive on a hot summer day in Chicago. You buy the overpriced beer, suck it down because a) it's 100 degrees out and b) you don't want to drink warm beer. End up putting back more than you intended. I think the koosies would certainly help!

Yep. Terrible!
I have a MLB.TV subscription so I can watch all the Cubs games whenever I want. Worst money I've ever spent!!!!
Fuckin' Cubs!

Ugh...I hope there is football this year so my anger can continue on well through the fall...

excellent points all around.

3 in a row! Never thought I'd see that this season... :? :x

New Rule:
They have to stop playing that "Go Cubs go" song after every win at Wrigley.
First of all, the song is terrible. Secondly, they should not play any song like that unless the team is over .500. Thirdly, this is still a terrible team.

Fuck!

3 in a row disapoints me

Hey, this could be an M's thread just as easy....

At least your team didn't set a new losing streak record like my team did today. 15 consecutive losses for the 2011 M's, one more loss than the 1992 M's had consecutively. :roll:

Even the Cubs aren't that bad.

I read an article the other day that said the M's should still blame Bradley

I was thinking the Cubs were probably still doing that though. The Mariners never thought he would single handedly fix our team like the Cubs thought.

And, I wouldn't go saying the outlandish quite yet; M's are a disastrous 15 games under .500. But, the Cubbies, not to be out beaten, are 18 games under! I think the goal in the under .500 game is to have the smallest number. So, the Cubs are actually worse than the Mariners, if you could believe that was possible.

Guess we finally get a website now since we got 3 W's in a row.

on the bright side, Aramis has been hitting the ball well and might actually be worth something on the market. Let's just fill up the farm system, boys. We aren't winning anytime soon so let's build a base around Castro and Marmol.

aram doesn't want to be traded and has indicated he won't be leaving the cubs.

next year is a different story. but at this point, he has said he doesn't want to be traded and would use his no trade rights to veto a deal

Hadn't watched this team much and tonight was my first game in person since May, and yup, this team is as shitty as advertised!!!

Build a team around a no fielding ss and closer that can't close. Brilliant

looks like a certain outfielder from the Pacific Rim is heading to Cleveland.
