Chicago Cubs baseball!!!

I am really starting to fucking loathe Christian Yelich. When Sammy Sosa goes from 20 to 66 homers he’s on roids but when Yelich does it he’s the greatest gift to fucking baseball. Fuck Ryan Braun, too, because.

When I looked at the schedule a week ago, I knew damned well this was the beginning of the end for the Cubs. Starting July 22 they had to play 19 of 25 on the road. Cubs have the WORST ROAD RECORD in the National League! They are 1-4 so far on this trip, and after back to back crushing loses in Milwaukee, I don't see this ending well. The bullpen is a joke, PERIOD!!!

And at some point in the next, I don't know, 3-5 years, can the Cubs finally get a leadoff hitter? Is it really to much to ask? Is it that fucking hard?

I can truly see this team going 6-19 on this 25 game stretch. THE END!

Let’s look at the bright side. Maybe Ed will say “Fuck it.  These guys suck.” and get back in the studio rather than hanging around Wrigley Field all October.

Source is ESPN.com:

• Their eight blown saves in July is tied for the most in baseball.

• On Saturday, they blew multiple save opportunities in the same game for the second time this season. Only the Mets have done that more.

• In 542 appearances before this season, Kimbrel had given up multiple home runs in the same outing just only once. In 12 games as a Cub, he has done it twice already.

Regarding the last one, what is it about putting on a Cubs uniform that makes people suck?

That series should have been a sweep.  1-2 instead.

We might see a sweep here real soon being that we’re heading to St. Louis. Just not the sweep we’re hoping for. 

Then it must be the sweep we are expecting.

I also read this morning that the Cubs are the only team in MLB to lead all of their games since the All-Star Break.  They're 9-7.  Fuckin Cubs.

2nd time I've heard mention of this scenario. Is this true, or people playing off Palmerio and Sandberg's wife back in the day?
