    On a positive note when I walked in to Murphy's before the game they were playing, "Someday We'll Go All the Way" thought that was pretty cool.

    Sweet!

    You got any games this weekend?

    YESSSSSSSSSS!!!! What a win, magic number 2!!! Soto is the man. 4 runs with 2 outs in the 9th, then get out of a no out 2nd and 3rd jam in the top of 12. Unreal. The Brewers completely collapsed that game like they have been all season. How fitting I hop on here after the game and see Eddie's song will be available soon. "Someday we'll go all the way"!!!!

    do you need it? PM me if you don't already have it. Sorry man, I should have asked you about it awhile ago.

    And yeah, that was so money in the 12th. 2nd and 3rd no outs, and they don't score a damn run. BTW, walking Soriano after he looked that terrible the previous few ABs, all I can say is, THANKS!

    I watched the game on replay at it was great the 2nd time.

    Braun really blew the 3rd out in the 9th. He was almost on the warning track and did not look aggresive going after Arams double. Could have been an error IMO.

    Geo rocks. We are blessed with this rookie.

    That Cubs song gives me chills. I love the line about crying and being covered with beer. Its gonna happen.

    Go Cubs Go!

    I love that line too!

    Geo deserves at least a few MVP votes. He's done way too much offensively and defensively, for a catcher, let alone a rookie, to get totally overlooked. Without him the Cubs would be FUCKED.

  • I pulled out my old cubbie pins from Wrigley from when I was 10. I put them on my Cord JAcket. Grandpa said when the Cubs win it will be a miracle! :D

    I was in Wrigleyville this evening.. not so incredible..

    This is a generalization, but drunk Cubs fans = douche bags..


    Seriously, this dude tried to have sex with every cab car he saw stopped.. I mean, come on!

    I'm sure southsiders do stuff just as stupid, but the whole drunk frat boys Cubs thing is fucking annoying..

    "looks at me, I'm old enough to drink, but I act like I'm five!" :rolleyes:


    Atleast we actually stab people on the south side and not try to have sex with cars.. :p
