    The Cubs just keep on winning. They need to take advantage of their schedule, and kick some ass the next 9 games against Cincy, Washington, and Pittsburgh.

    Agreed. They really need to go 6-3 or 7-2 or better over these next 9. It's nice to be up big but Sept. is going to be a tough month based on the schedule. Just glad they are finally showing they can win on the road taking games at Wrigley North (Milwaukee) and the two Wrigley South's (Atlanta and Florida).

    I would love to see Milwaukee 10 games behind the Cubs after the next 9 games. And wouldnt it be nice to see Fukudome actually hit the ball the last 6 weeks of the season?

    Herald had an article a few days ago about the Cubs getting to 100 wins. They laid out the remaining series and their "predictions" for the series, and ended up having the Cubs at 98 wins. I don't give a frogs fat ass how many wins they end up with in the regular season, as long as they get 4 in the world series

    Agreed, win enough to get in, and then make sure you win those ever so important 11 games in October!!!

    It is going to be interesting come playoff time. Lou is going to have a few tough decisions when it comes to the pitching staff. Personally, if it were my decision, Dempster and Harden would be my #1 and # 2 pitchers in the playoffs. But we all know there is no way in hell Zambrano will not be starting that 1st playoff game.

    That t-shirt sums up everything that is wrong with Cubs fans...white middle-class punks who revel in their own suckiness. I was so over rooting for the Crew to catch them and just settle for a run at the Wild Card, but that shirt has renewed my extreme hatred for this shitbag team.

    Doesn't it seem like almost every Harden outing is 7 innings 2 hits 10-11Ks 1er? Simply outfuckingstanding.
