    I am going to record so I can fast forward through the bad parts.
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    I hope they start Ross tomorrow. Montero's bat has been awful this postseason.

    Bryant and Rizzo have also looked terrible at the plate.

    Whomever we start at catcher will provide us nothing on offense. Do they still start Hammel? Will be there for gm 4. Really hope they jump out to a lead, cause if they get down early I think the crowd will be out of it.

    I'm not gonna be one to point fingers because the Cubs fucked up enough in the field tonight that they deserved to lose...

    BUT...

    FUCK THAT HOME PLATE UMPIRE AND THE "STRIKE ZONE" HE RODE IN ON!!

    It's been awful most of the playoffs. Not sure if TBS's K zone is off that much but I feel like any pitch 6" outside has a 50/50 chance of being called a strike.

  • So are they going to give the Cubs fans towels to wave tonight?

    Or are the going to give us DUNCE CAPS to wear?

    I think the best part of this series was yesterdays game.
    When the Cubs turned into the Cubs.
    A comedy of fucking errors.

  • Eddie Vedder is worried about touring in October?
    Someone tell Mr. Vedder he can live to be 700 years old. He could live longer than Moses.
    And he wont have to worry about not having to tour in October.

  • So is tonight the night, that we get to watch all the Cubs fans, on National TV, crying in their Beers, watching yet another Cubs team, get their asses handed to them?

    I would bet my life the answer is YES!

    And once again I got caught up in the Cubs BULLSHIT!
    Shame on me.

    Oh wait.
    They are young.
    They are solid
    They will be good for the next 5-7 years.
    Blah
    Blah
    Blah

    i personally think ed should be labeled as the new bartman. i knew once those ridiculous vedder shirts hit the shop that the team would be cursed this round.

    all seriousness, i don't get why arrieta wasn't on the mound in game one. if he comes out, gets the win in the opening match, maybe lester and his $200 million contract gets the win in game two with the momentum from game one? i don't know, but there are certainly a couple "what ifs" floating around.

    ah well. go hawks?

    And WTF was with putting that Schwarber HR in a fucking trophy case on that scoreboard? Somebody should go up there, and smash that fucker to bits and pieces.
    100% fucking agree that starting Lester was just an IDIOT fucking move!

  • Last Saturday, when the Cubs took the field, with the stupid fucking Blue Hoodies on, dressed like they were in the Iditarod, I knew right then and there we were in BIG trouble. The second these assholes started blaming the weather, I knew it was over.

    I tell ya, I am the BIGGEST asshole of em all!
    I went out 2 weeks ago, and once again got cable installed, I went and got the MLB network, just because there was NO WAY I could miss any of these games. The Cubbies were going to the World Series!

    Right now I am 5 minutes away from throwing my TV out to the street!
    Hahahahaha

  • Ok now that I got that somewhat out of my system...
    Let me talk like the typical, dunce cap wearing, idiot fucking Cubs fan, that I am.

    Well, if we can somehow win tonight, then we have both Lester and Arrieta going in games 5 and 6. Anything can happen in a game 7. If we can just win tonight, I like are chances of forcing a game 7.
