  • things are heatin up in here...I would have figured that all would be good in Cubbie land, seeing as you have one of the best teams in baseball.

    Don't worry, you Brewer fans haven't scratched the surface as to annoying Cubs fans. Cubs have sucked for many years. And for many years, we've had smack thrown our way (sometimes deservingly so) by Whitesox and Cardinal fans. But if you Brewers keeping winning, you can get really annoying fast! :)

    Try being a Cubs fan who lives in Milwaukee, you'd think differently. Most are fine, it's just the people who have never followed the Brewers that talk shit and think they know baseball. Weak ass band wagon fans, what a joke and a disgrace to baseball. Believe me I know the Cubs have many a bandwagon fans and I hate them too. Bandwagon fans suck. Those games should be interesting next week at Wrigley North (yes I'm calling it that cause when it first opened it was 80% Cubs fans for Cubs Brewers games). I'm guessing it will be a little different this year.

    So I was at the game Wednesday night in Phoenix. A cocky little D'backs fan was waving a sign titled "Cubs have Stubs" 2 rows in front of me. Not a big deal I guess... show support for your team with a sign, even trash the opponent maybe with a sign regarding "1908"... fine with me. But a "dick joke" sign in my face, the guy was talking shit like no other, and just being a total cock.

    I was a little irritated by the 7th inning and had a little "liquid encouragement." So he waves the sign RIGHT IN MY FACE after Reed Johnson's Slam. I take the sign, rip the motherfucker up, and toss it back at him. All the Cubs fans went wild around us cause the guy has been taunting us all night. The guy talks more shit and gets in my face, and he even proceeds to grab my wife's arm.

    That is when I lost it. Shoved the guy and he fell into the row where he was supposed to be sitting. He realized at that point that he was FUCKED if he wanted to meet me. He continues to run his mouth and security shows up and sits between us for a bit... When security leaves I ask him to step outside but being a D'backs fan he pusses out and doesn't want anything to do with it.

    Anywho... good times... 6 Old Styles... ripped up a D'backs fan sign... GO CUBS!!!

    Ain't that the truth! It aint Cards fans Sox fans or Brewer fans I hate the most, its bandwagon fans! I've supported the Cubs through 100+ loss seasons, don't wait until the playoffs to start asking me if I "watched" the game last night. Of fucking course I watched it. Morons.

    And yeah man its got to be pretty rough up there dealing with that shit. But I'd assume it would be similar to dealing with Sox fans giving us shit around my parts as well.

    You heard it here first...

    DUMB FUCKING MOVE.

    Why not Sean Marshall? This is not the time of year to be experimenting with a guy who has only been in AAA for part of a single year, let alone the bigs.

    and also... where did anyone hear that Samardzja (sp?) is going to start? I heard they were going to use him in the Closer role until Woody gets back... which is almost as fucking dumb.

    Don't blow it Cubbies. Sox are pulling well into first again, you guys are now tied with Milwaukee. Better hold up your end if you want a cross-town World Series..

    Yes it is. Going to all 4 games in Milwaukee at Wrigley North. GO CUBS GO!!!! In all honesty I'm perfectly fine with a split, anything better, great, but losing 3/4 or 4/4 is something I could see having a long term negative effect.

    Huge win indeed. Cubs absolutely stole that game and I love it!! Brewers completely played themselves out of it with stupid base running decisions, and oh, oh, who could foget Rickie Weeks's great defense at 2nd. It's only the 1st game, but it sets it up nicely to hopefully at minimum get 2 of the 4. GO CUBS!!

    Was electric in there, can't wait for tonight. Nice to see fans of both teams standing during big moments during the game. It's a sporting event and it's refreshing to see people stand up and cheer. I hate when no one stands during big moments.

    Almost playoff atmosphere. As pureoc said, nice to see both sides of fans going nuts for their teams. Not exactly Wrigley North like in the past, but still a ton of Cubs fans there. Then again, thats the same in almost every ballpark

    Big win last night to stay ahead. Tonight woudl be just as big against Sheets.

    I thought 90 wins would take this division but it looks like 100+ will be needed. So much for the weakest division in baseball. Does anyone look at the crappy teams out West?

    Go CUBS!!!
