GRAND SLAM! Cubs lead Cards 7-4!

[Zomby Woof]

Oh Daaaavid! :P

[maveric]

1. Just watched it! Awesome!

Still no outs! Now an infield hit!

[GOPisEvil]

2. *yawn*

Wake me in September when Cubs are below .500 again.

[Zomby Woof]

4. You know this gets you

Sure, you can pretend to be blase... but this bugs you.

I can wake you in October when the Cards CHOKE again, and again, and again.

They are like the Bills, but less exciting.

[GOPisEvil]

5. 1908

Ninety-eight years.

At least the Cardinals have won something in my lifetime.

[Zomby Woof]

7. That's ok

Since the Dodgers won in 1981 and 1988, they have TWO in my lifetime. :P

[GOPisEvil]

9. Pick a team already...

:P

[Zomby Woof]

10. This moran already has picked one!

Typical Cards fan! :P

[GOPisEvil]

17. Don't you have a Steve Garvey card to swoon over?

Speaking of someone who broke the Cubs' hearts...

[Zomby Woof]

20. Garvey was always a prick

I doubt if you'll find ANY Dodger fan who would defend him. And that goes back to when he actually played.

Proof we're more intellectually honest than Giants fans. They should have kicked Bonds off the team by now.

[KitchenWitch]

24. Amen to the Giants needing to kick Bonds off the team.

[Jara sang]

3. How about posting a spoiler alert.

I TIVOed that game.:P Just kidding.

[KitchenWitch]

6. I just saw that!

GO CUBBIES!

Wrigleyville is CRAZY with happiness.

[GOPisEvil]

8. They'll be crying in despair by Independence Day.

[Catshrink]

11. I'm speechless.

What is that ZW calls you, asshole? It's gonna be the Cubbies' year.

[GOPisEvil]

15. Hope springs eternal...

...except at 1060 W. Addison. ;)

[KitchenWitch]

19. I love 1060 W Addison!

It is baseball Mecca!

[GOPisEvil]

21. I've been there...during October, when it was quiet.

:bounce:

[KitchenWitch]

31. How were those 1987 Cardinals?

:P

:bounce::bounce:

We're gonna win Twins
We're gonna score
We're gonna win Twins
Watch that baseball soar
Crack out a homerun
Shout a hip-hooray
Cheer for the Minnesota Twins today!

[GOPisEvil]

33. Stupid alternating home field advantage.

Indoor baseball is an abomination.

[Zomby Woof]

35. CUBS WIN!

SWEEP!

[KitchenWitch]

38. Believe me, we have never been happy with the dome

The Metropolitan Council handed everyone quite a terrible deal there.

But the Twins did win two World Series' there. :P

[GOPisEvil]

42. If baseball was a meritocracy, the Cards would have had home field

in 1987. But...that's the way it goes. At least it wasn't outright theft like in 1985.

[KitchenWitch]

45. True enough

I remember signs around here, the day of game seven "Four in the Dome is better than Three in the Busch!"

[KitchenWitch]

12. We will see.

:P

[Zomby Woof]

14. Live for the moment

And the moment is NOW.

[GOPisEvil]

22. I see the Phillies got their first win of the year...

...and they beat whom? ;)

[Zomby Woof]

25. It was a pity fuck

Like the ones your momma gives your daddy.

[GOPisEvil]

26. OK now that was too far...

...don't go bringin' momma into this.

[Zomby Woof]

29. What's a Cubs-Cards flame war...

...without gratuitous shots? :D

[reyd reid reed]

46. You shoulda seen my house...

I think that we might have moved over the property line. And I got to 'happy dance' in front of my son TWICE tonight. First when Jones hit his, and then....

I'm STILL giddy.

[GOPisEvil]

13. Only Cubs fans would chant like freaks on April 9th!

Get over yourselves...sweep in St. Louis then brag.

[Zomby Woof]

16. Maddux owns your ass

And this guy owns your heart:

[GOPisEvil]

18. Oh please...everyone owns the Cubs.

:P

[Zomby Woof]

23. Your momma ties Maddux up at night

And reads him Walt Whitman. :D

[GOPisEvil]

28. My mom is Japanese - she reads him haiku.

:P

[Zomby Woof]

32. Snarf!

Dude, I think that even offended me! :spray:

[GOPisEvil]

34. I expect a long wooden spoon to smack me later tonight.

:scared:

[Zomby Woof]

37. Don't go Scientologist on us!

We agree on indoor baseball... I cheered the day the Kingdome came down.

[GOPisEvil]

39. I cheered the day the astroturf was removed from Busch.

That's abomination #2.

[Zomby Woof]

27. 8-4

The Cards can't lose enough to suit me.

[GOPisEvil]

30. Prepare to be disappointed a lot.

[GOPisEvil]

36. Pat yourselves on the back now Cubbies. It is on!

When do you perennial chokers head to St. Louis?

[Zomby Woof]

40. Soon

*cackles*

You should come out here when the Cards play L.A. We would have too much fun talking shit.

[GOPisEvil]

41. I had tickets to some Dodger games in 1994.

August 1994.

I got to go to Dodger Stadium to collect my refund. x(

[Zomby Woof]

43. I'll make it up to you

I'll give you a Tommy Lasorda blow-up doll to cuddle with. :D

[GOPisEvil]

44. What will he do with that crooked finger of his?

:scared:

And on THAT pleasant note, I'm off to bed. :hi:

[reyd reid reed]

47. MY Barrett, no less!!

First yesterday's game-tying home run...then today's game winner...

Yup...that's my Barrett.

:D

[Jamison]

48. Cubs fans give it a rest!

Jeez, you guys own the Cardinals year after year and that's not enough?

[reyd reid reed]

49. It's been five years

Since the Cubs have swept 'em. I'd have to go look up the numbers to be exact (and, seeing how it's late and I'm lazy....), but I think that overall, it's pretty even. Cubs might be up a few games, but not a whole lot.

Plus, LaRussa's such a...well...it just makes it that much sweeter.

[Jamison]

50. La Russa's such an...

idiot is the word I think you're missing there.

His policy of "Challenging & never walking any hitter" has been disastrous. Who in their right mind would pitch to Derrick Lee or Michael Barrett given their track record against the Cards?

[reyd reid reed]

51. "Idiot" is a kinder, gentler form of the word I was thinking

Twelve straight pitches that couldn't find the strike zone with a map. And eight of 'em from Isringhausen...

Heh...he didn't use Looper 'cause he's been out of whack.

I love it.
