briguy27 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Yeah, maybe it is time to blow this thread up and forget it existed. Maybe we can start a love for the Cubs thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 QUOTE(briguy27 @ Jul 26, 2007 -> 02:53 PM) ... I think you missed the joke. Starting a similar thread would cause the Cubs to collapse into suckiness like the Brewers have since this thread opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jul 26, 2007 -> 08:00 PM) I am so pissed off right now. Come on Cubs ... start sucking :fthecubs The Cubs are the best team in baseball right now. It won't go on forever, will it? They're the best team in that division, and it's not even close. They have two guys in Zambrano and Lilly who just won't lose now, and they have a pretty strong bullpen that's avoided blowing games lately. And of course, we had to know that J. Jones would end up contributing to them after they tried to get rid of them. At this point, I've given up on them not making the playoffs, and I'm just rooting for the teams they'll have to play to upgrade at the deadline. Recent injuries to Peavy, Young, Lowe, and Beltran are the types of thing that I hope we don't see a lot of down the stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if there is a good side to the Cubs making the playoffs, maybe Mr. Reinsdorf allows Kenny to spend a little more this off season knowing that you can buy your way into contention and attract fans.

Flub fans thought the same thing after we won and they ended up in last place. ARe you even a Sox fan these days, or just an anti-Cub fan?

watchtower41 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 why not, all the Cubs fans were quick to buy Detroit hats last year, even though half of them couldnt name a player on that team. Hell, I picked up a retro Brewers bp jersey last week when I went up to Miller Park for Chorizo Day. Now there's a concept I cant get enough of, a day at the ballpark to honor a mexican sausage. Sweet bobblehead though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told her "if the Cubs win the division, you can blame your team," after that today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except the Cubs play in a much weaker division. At best they are the third best team in the AL central. As much as last year sucked, we still would have made the playoffs in the NL.

retro1983hat Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Watched the Brewer game last night. They just don't have enough to keep the Cubs down. Saddens me to say it, but the Cubs should be three games up on them in a week. Either way: Go Brew Crew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 The cubs will make the playoffs, the division is just that bad. The NL east teams are beating on the NL central pretty bad right now, and the cubs are just the least bad team in their division. Of course who knows what will happen in the playoffs.

Brian Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Wow, the bottom of the 8th and top of the 9th in the Brewers/Phillies game was some of the most exciting baseball I have seen all year. Bottom of the 8th, Fielder hits a 2 run homer to put the Brewers up. Corey Hart robs Iguchi of a game tying homer. Rollins flies out to end it. GREAT game.

zimne piwo Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Jun 30, 2007 -> 10:16 PM) Brewers have always been my favorite NL team! I just wish we had FSN north here in Chicago! As someone who regularly made the journey up to County Stadium to catch the Sox vs. the Brew Crew, hearing that comment makes me feel OLD!!!
