    What a pathetic game that was.

    Between Lou's substitutions, Gregg's 55 foot curveballs, Alfo's direction to running down balls, and Riot's decision to go home instead of a pretty easy double play...

    Horrible baseball.


    Your defense sure needs some work. hehe

    Our bats need to get going sooner then later. Wrigley North I think not today. lol With it being good friday I had some tasty fish tacos while tailgating. :) Always a great time at Opening Day. Looking forward to tomorrow's game. :)

    Well, despite the loss I sure looked like a good game to be at!

    Hey Pat, so the Cubs play the Brew-crew 17 times this year. Wanna make a wager on who takes the overall best of 17 "series"? ;)
    You're already up 1-0...

    I'm sure we can come up with some stakes we could agree on...:D

    It was quite the atmosphere and I'm workin' on a nasty hangover! Plenty of things that upset me with the Cubs yesterday. Bradley swinging at a 3-0 pitch with runners on 1st and 2nd is inexcuasable, whoever gave him a green light there should lose there job, that's baseball 101. Also why are we pinch hitting Aaron Miles when we have Haufpair. I'm not saying HP would have got the job done but he's a lot less likely to hit a weak grounder that ends up being a costly double play. Harden pitched a great game. If Koyie Hill hits a HR you probably should win. Bullpen piss poor job, you can't walk that many guys, ever. I still say Marmol should not be our closer. It's nice having that lock down guy to bring in, in a crucial situation in the 7th or 8th. I am saying we need some better than Gregg though. Man do I wish we still had Woody. I'll tip my hat to you Patrick on your teams win. Can't wait to get back there tonight to see Big Z!

    1-1 on the season with 15 left.

    Now that things are nice and even what do you say about our little "bet" ;)

    Loser has to take a pic of themselves in either the opposing team's hat or teeshirt and post it as their avatar on the boards here for a month and if you lose Pat, in your sig, you have to say "Brewer's suck, and mca47 is a genius" and if I lose, I will say "Cubs suck and Pat-- is a genius".

    How's that sound for a wager?

    You in Pat? :)

    Ah c'mon you'd only have to wear it for the picture then you could burn it afterwards if you so chose. :D

    I'm a die-hard Cubs fan and I'd do it. Then again I'm also pretty confident I'm going to win this bet and therefore not have to... :lol:

    But yeah, good games so far!

    How long before Lou does anything about that?

    a) In the next series or two
    b) All Star Break
    c) Next year


    My guess is once the Cubs are swept out of the playoffs again, Lou will consider moving Gregg out of the closer role.

    LOL!

    First off, LOVED Reed Johnson's catch Sun. night, WOW, robbing a potential game tying grand slam, just unreal. Second, just got back from Opening Day today, nice to see them win the home opener for the first time in 3 years. Loved the fact that Sut threw out the first pitch to Jody Davis and that they both sang the stretch. It was especially great since I was wearing my Jody Davis jersey, one of my favorite Cubs growing up as a kid. Too bad Atkins had to poke one through in the 7th. Nice start to a hopefully good homestand.

    Nice big HR by Soriano, too bad he still can't play LF for shit. Hopefully we can take these next two and take the series.
