Good thing Braun is up next inning.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh wait, I forgot. Yost is an idiot.

Haha, idiotic decision to bunt. You're taking the bat out of Prince's hands by doing this.

This may need Chris Rongey in Milwaukee to stop the riots after this game.

The title of theis thread should just be changed to the official Ned Yost sucks thread. Hell, I might just make that thread myself.

Fire Ned Yost Yesterday might be more pleasing to the popular concensus.

Having Suppan hit last inning rather than Braun is soooooo clutch!

Swinging on a 3-1? Are you freaking kidding me! I hate the Brewers with a f***ing passion.

Miller and that OPS around .450 is just so valuable. No chance in hell the Braves don't score this inning. Maybe it will be against the great Matt Wise.

If the Brewers could get ahold of Toby Hall they would lead MLB in catchers that absolutely suck.

I can't believe he swung 3-1. He should be fired right after Yost.

He's also the genius that called for a first pitch fastball to a dead fastball hitter in Thorman. It really is amazing how every little f***ing thing has fallen perfectly into the dream scenario for the Cubs to make the playoffs rather easily.

Offseason to do list for Brewers:

 

1) Bullpen

2) 2 Decent catchers not named Miller or Estada. One of which has to be ready to start, play defense, and hit

3) After Yost is fired, release his home address to the media and encourage fans to egg his house.

It will be interesting how the organization rebounds from such a disasterous final few months of the season.

Time for Willie to win it.

Good grief, this is just too funny now. Congrats to the Cubs on making the playoffs. Nothing like spending 400 million dollars to go from last to first.

fathom, are you the new cuck the fubs? Just calm down. lol. So what if they're going to win the division. They'll be exposed come playoffs.

Exposed as what? I never thought they were anything special, but the way they're hitting homer and the relief pitching they're getting, they're not going to be an easy out come the playoffs. And FWIW, I've been saying they were going to catch the Brewers all the way back in June. I just never knew how bad of a manager Ned Yost really was.

 

BTW, you live in the Chicagoland area, right? Well, it's safe to say the next few weeks/month is going to be awful dealing with the bandwagoners. When they let us wear Cubs stuff to work, I'm going to have to go purchase the "Wrigley: World's Largest Gay Bar" t-shirt.

The best team did not win the World Series last year, so the Cubs could be the last team standing this year.

I got a few of those for stocking stuffers at Christmas this year, Ha ha!

fathom, I remember 2003. I also remember how it ended. This team is nowhere near as good as the 2003 team. Not that, that means anything in 2007. With the Sox being out of it since June, I've watched more Cubs games this year than I ever before. I don't think this is a team built for playoff success. They're lookin' good against the crap that is their division (kinda like the final month of the 2003 season), but they've looked average or worse against anybody good from the NL. Check their records against the NL east and west.

 

Yes, I know what the Cardinals did last year. But was that the exception or the rule? How many teams with less than 85 wins win it all? And let's say the impossible happens and they do win it all. So what? We had our fun in 2005. It's not like Cubs fans will have bragging rights on us or anything. But like I said, they'll get knocked out in round 1.

My main reason for thinking they can do well in the playoffs, besides for the horrible lineups the DBacks will have on the field, is that they can make it a 5 inning game with their bullpen. And as for what does it matter if they win it all? I just think things will be a lot more enjoyable if they don't.

I wouldn't be surprised if 70% of the fans in Arizona will be Cubs fans. The obnoxious Cubs fans will drown out all the D-Backs fans and it will soon be called.. in the national and local media.. "Wrigley West". If the Cubs win, a sea of blue will fill the streets of Phoenix, and all the locals who don't care, will join in.. and the media will catch all of it. I'm not ready for this madness..

That's why I really hope the Padres can't win the NL West or the Phillies win the WC.
