I guess the good news is that my water sales are going through the roof. The bad news is I can barely keep up with all the people who are running out before their scheduled delivery day- why the hell didn’t I finish college? Because I’d be an unemployed sportswriter with all the papers downsizing! I guess Roy Haliday could take a cue about hydration?
This weather is batshit crazy. I’m just glad I finally got my power turned back on. (Actually, it came back Friday night.) I don’t mind staying in hotels, but not under these circumstances. All I can say is ComEd…keep that goddamn power on!!!!!!
Good thing I finished all my deliveries for the store on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday is going to be hell. Chucky, I read your last post about the ComEd disaster. I am just glad I didn’t deal with any of that shit.
Last year was a different story. Around the 4th of July, the assholes shut off my power because they said I didn’t pay my bill. It turned out that by some fucked up reason, I was paying for the empty apartment next door for the previous four months (The bills were only $20-$30 a month) and it took them five days to get it back on because their offices were closed for the holiday. Luckily, my parents only lived five minutes away so I went there for that time.
That being said, I’d rather have a 100 degree day than have a 10 degree day with three feet of snow on the ground like we had in February.
No “W” for you Garza. 3 hits, 0 runs over 7 beautiful innings, but that’s never gonna get you a “W” with the gas pen you’ve got behind you. The only “flame” throwing going on is our pitchers getting “lit” up. FUCKERS!!! ALL OF ‘EM!!!!
I forgot to post this for you. On Wednesday night, June 29th, I took my wife and went down to Milwaukee for the opening night of Summerfest. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard about Summerfest, but it’s an awesome 10 days of terrific music on the waterfront. Anyway, the night we went (I’ll get to the headliner in a minute), we saw a Rush tribute band (not bad), some other miscellaneous acts were playing throughout the afternoon, and then that night Hall and Oates was on one of the stages…as was Meatloaf. Now, the reason we went down there was to catch Peter Gabriel; it was amazing. No guitars, no drums, no synthesizers. Just Peter, his daughter, Melanie, and Ane Brun…along with the New Blood Orchestra (a 46 piece compilation of absolutely amazing talent). They played for nearly 3 hours and could have played for another 3. Don’t know if you’re a fan or not, but it was a spectacular show.
Well like I said previously, we just needed Sean Marshall to implode. Pretty soon Jeff Samardzija will lead our bullpen in ERA.
Lets look at a real team in Philadelphia. They lose their closer, their backup closer, and what do they have? Antonio Bastardo mauling people down. Philly has had a ton of injuries to key players yet they have 60 wins and just plug and play. The Cubs? But but injuries! Weather! Wind blowing in! Too cold! Umpires hate us!
1. It’s too cold outside…That’s why we couldn’t score
2. It’s too hot outside…That’s why we couldn’t stop the other team from hitting all of those homeruns.
3. If my pitcher had time to warm up, he could have done better.
4. It’s the umpires fault we lost that game, not the pitcher for walking in runs after a bad call.
5. We have too many injuries. When we get everyone back, we will be ready to go.
Did anybody else notice that of the 33 W’s that the Houston Astros have on the season, roughly half (give or take a couple) of them came at the expense of the Schlubs?
Saw the set list for the Peter Gabriel show and it looks like it was awesome. I read about the tour in the early spring and I guess I forgot about it before tix went on sale and now it’s over-damn!
I just happened to be reading this forum today and rather than killing people with a tsunami, I thought I would grant a wish. So, is your wish to blow the Cubs up? Or maybe you would prefer something else, like a World Series Championship?
Extensive data supports the theory that dismantling the Chicago Cubs baseball organization will yield more positive results. That in turn will increase the possibility of them having success on the field and into the post season.
This guy is walking down the street and sees a lamp he rubs the lamp a genie comes out and says you get one wish…..the guy goes i want piece between me and my ex wife ….the genie says thats to complicated do you have another wish …the guy goes yeah i want the cubs to win the world series ….the genie goes what is your exes name
Yeti is very knowledgeable uses stats for his posts….if u want to see the villiage idiot go to cbssportsline and look up kansas boyd….that guy trirs to use stats and when u prove him wrong he starts calling people names
Oh look. Another blown save. That is something we rarely see.
I really hope Gillick gets a position in this pathetic franchise. The guy turned around and put World Series winners in Toronto and Philadelphia and nearly did it a third time with Seattle in the early 2000’s.
But considering who owns the team, it probably won’t happen. Wishful thinking though.
That Robert use spell check on his posts. If a guy makes fun of you all the time for misspellings and typos, perhaps you should make a modicum of effort to get things correct.
“I really do suggest”, question: would you really care if one of us made fun of YOU all the time? I doubt it…and hope not.
Mitch Cumstein was more entertaining at correcting bad grammar and spelling than anybody who has posted here since. Too bad the original archives are out of reach…”that would learn ya”
It’s come down to “wait ’til next century”, when we’re all long gone, dead, and burried. Ricketts is a flying douchecopter, and I can see him hanging onto this franchise and making it a bigger joke than it already is (is that really possible?), then handing it over to his in-bred idiot offspring. They’ll hire Crane Kenney’s and Moe Hendry’s kids to sign Milton Bradley Jr. to a lifelong contract! Kill me now!
This team cant hit with men on base remember last winter when we signed jaramillo….moe said it is like getting the top free agent….how have the rangers done since he left
Oh yeah, one more thing. Mac, you fucking retarded piece of monkey shit. Learn how to spell buried before someone initiates an assault on your spelling and grammar. I can’t really say anything about the douchecoptor thing (whether or not it’s spelled correctly) as I can’t find it in Webster’s. However, douche bag is clearly in the dictionary.
First (and best) definition of “douchecopter” – The pinnacle of douchebaggery- urban dictionary, 2007. Can we insert Ricketts picture in there? “This is Captain Ricketts, I am your douchecopter, I will be flying your beloved franchise to the ultimate heights in douchebaggery.”
Hey, check out the accompanying video to this article about the free agent wideout the Bears just signed-A must see for all you Lebron “fans” — http://goo.gl/s6jIy
Well chucky, douchecopter is not a banned word on mlb.com, so you can personalize your Cub jersey that way-but then you’d have to give mlb and the Cubs your money. Would be sweet to personally hand one to Ricketts though.
quade is right the cubs can contend…for most pathetic franchise in sports there competition is from the nfl the bengals…..in the nba its the clippers….not sure who it would be in hockey with the thrashers moving to winnepeg
Robert, I’m going with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Haven’t won the Cup since1967, and just don’t seem to ever put it together to even make the playoffs. They are now the Original 6 team with the longest drought of not winning the Cup.
Speaking of pathetic franchises, Espn’s annual list just came out last month. Bengals ranked dead last at 122. Leafs 120, Cubs 112-behind the Wizards, Lions, and Clippers among others:
I hear you Mac…but 1967 sounds a little better than 1908!
Ha ha…err, wait a minute….nothing funny about not winning a WS in 103 – soon to be 104 – years.
On a positive note, Cubs are 20 games under again…keep losing, as it’s the only way that the IDIOTS who control this team will ever get a clue as there are too many sheeple willing to support this organization “no matter what”…might as well eat shit.
When Marlon Turd heard about the trade he said can i go to….if they had any balls they would release that donkey….another player moe just had to have….can then cane his ass now
Paul Sullivan’s article yesterday: “Zambrano said the club hasn’t approached him about waiving his no-trade clause, while club sources said there is no interest in him, making the clause irrelevant.”
Pie…Were you around when it was Fire Dusty Baker several years ago? Some of those debates got outright vicious. Even some of the nasty dialog that happens here now doesn’t compare. Of course, anybody who was in favor of keeping Baker around didn’t have the sense god gave a sack of doorknobs. And those were the people who got real nasty with us.
I see the “fans” are still showing up to the commode called Wrigley; 39,000 to 41,000 per game is not going to make Ricketts pee in his diapers and do what has to be done.
So, get used to years and years of losing Cub fans (real fans). In my opinion the only option now is to dump em and find another team.
Chucky: Nope. I just found this blog searching for some rants against Hendry and Quade. I would have definitely been on the “Anti-Dusty” side though. Couldn’t stand him in Chicago.
Pie, you would have enjoyed the old site. It got pretty intense at times….but was not over-run with juvenile idiots…(thankfully, we haven’t had much of that here lately).
21 games below .500! But, you’re still contending, Quade! Hip hip hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another reason moe should be gone …soriano did not know he had a no trade clause in his contract…can his ass now
July 20, 2011 at 6:38 pm
I just love this Cubbie ballclub … don’t you Genre?
July 20, 2011 at 7:11 pm
Ernie, they make me sick. But I am LOVING every time that they lose and hope it continues…because that is the only way things will change.
A PATHETIC situation! As usual.
Jimmy D, believe I would have enjoyed that show.

Ok…can we officially agree that Quade just MIGHT be a complete idiot?
July 21, 2011 at 1:07 am
He was moes hire
July 21, 2011 at 2:18 pm
The forecast for Friday near Wrigley Urinal calls for a 100% chance of shitty baseball.
Can someone please fire Jim Hendry?
July 21, 2011 at 10:05 pm
Matt. Apparently not. And, your forecast will be accurate through the end of the season. If not longer.
Tom Ricketts is a bonafide asshole.
July 21, 2011 at 10:49 pm
Did anybody else notice that of the 33 W’s that the Houston Astros have on the season, roughly half (give or take a couple) of them came at the expense of the Schlubs?
July 22, 2011 at 1:22 am
Come one come all to the great urinal this weekend and see the two worse teams in baseball this weekend when the flubs make an asstro of them self
July 22, 2011 at 7:54 am
Hey Jimmy D,
Saw the set list for the Peter Gabriel show and it looks like it was awesome. I read about the tour in the early spring and I guess I forgot about it before tix went on sale and now it’s over-damn!
Phil Rogers has a good column arguing the Cubs need to bring Pat Gillick in to overhaul things: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/ct-spt-0722-rogers-cubs-chicago–20110722,0,4080270.column
July 22, 2011 at 7:56 am
Dear God: Please blow this crappy team up.
Screw Ramirez and his no-trade clause. Hendry should be jailed for the excessive no-trade clauses alone.
Ricketts continues to be an idiot asshole, time to erect his statue, right next to the trough. Ready, aim….FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
July 22, 2011 at 11:09 am
Is it true that Hendry’s contract has a billion dollar buyout? Is that why they won’t fire him?
July 22, 2011 at 11:24 am
Mr. genrebuster,
I just happened to be reading this forum today and rather than killing people with a tsunami, I thought I would grant a wish. So, is your wish to blow the Cubs up? Or maybe you would prefer something else, like a World Series Championship?
July 22, 2011 at 1:14 pm
I swear I have nothing to do with the franchise you all deal with. It’s God’s fault.
July 22, 2011 at 1:15 pm
God….Just blow them up. Even you can’t make this team win a fucking World Series.
July 22, 2011 at 1:16 pm
Satan…Can I be a fan of yours?
July 22, 2011 at 1:35 pm
God. Please don’t toy with us long-suffering fans, life is hard enough as it is. Admit it, Chucky is right!
Of course we prefer a WS Championship. People have been preferring that for 103 years.
Thank You for not creating any more Tsunami’s (I thought Mother Nature) was behind that, my bad).
Satan. Thank You…but I never suspected that you had anything to do with it.
July 22, 2011 at 1:40 pm
Greetings and salutations to all:
Even God cannot argue with SCIENCE.

July 22, 2011 at 2:08 pm
The Cubs are a very scientific team-they replicate the same pathetic results over and over and over.
July 22, 2011 at 2:22 pm
Good point.
Sounds like Gillick is interested in Crane Kenney’s job…
July 23, 2011 at 9:34 am
This guy is walking down the street and sees a lamp he rubs the lamp a genie comes out and says you get one wish…..the guy goes i want piece between me and my ex wife ….the genie says thats to complicated do you have another wish …the guy goes yeah i want the cubs to win the world series ….the genie goes what is your exes name
July 24, 2011 at 1:02 am

July 24, 2011 at 4:59 pm
C’mon Matt! These guys are serviceable. Get with the program here. And it netted a win for John Gayblow too.
July 24, 2011 at 5:09 pm
We’re on our way! Our 3rd win in a row! Gee whiz, this is real fun owning a baseball team! I met my wife in the bleachers!
July 24, 2011 at 5:10 pm
uh…that’s so kewl.
July 24, 2011 at 5:41 pm
All we gotta do now is go 50-12 for the rest of the season and 90-72 should win the NL Central.
Go Cubs!
July 24, 2011 at 5:41 pm
48-12*
July 24, 2011 at 9:37 pm
Oh yea…

July 24, 2011 at 11:48 pm
“modicum”…nice. 😉
July 26, 2011 at 1:53 pm
It turns out Hendry is telling the media that they can contend for next year so he’s not going to trade anybody.
Can someone please fire this looney tune?
July 26, 2011 at 5:51 pm
ha ha ha h ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ….
…..”wait ’till next year”!!!!!
Ricketts is a damned fool.

July 26, 2011 at 8:34 pm
Quade said in his pre game interview he still thinks the cubs will contend this year
July 26, 2011 at 8:47 pm
Robert, I want some of the shit that Quade is smoking.
July 26, 2011 at 9:11 pm
Bases loaded. 0 outs. Soriano grounds in a force play at home. 1 out. Derwood Barney grounds into a double play. 3 outs.
Contend for what? Last place, which would give them the worst record in MLB. Fuck this team…..again.
Mac…I’m not so sure you want what Quade is smoking. Think about it. Do you want to be that fucking whacked out?
July 26, 2011 at 9:56 pm
Chucky, probably not- crack is whack, according to Whitney Houston, and she should know! And Quade’s not just smoking pot!
July 26, 2011 at 10:01 pm
It’s come down to “wait ’til next century”, when we’re all long gone, dead, and burried. Ricketts is a flying douchecopter, and I can see him hanging onto this franchise and making it a bigger joke than it already is (is that really possible?), then handing it over to his in-bred idiot offspring. They’ll hire Crane Kenney’s and Moe Hendry’s kids to sign Milton Bradley Jr. to a lifelong contract! Kill me now!
July 26, 2011 at 10:28 pm
This team cant hit with men on base remember last winter when we signed jaramillo….moe said it is like getting the top free agent….how have the rangers done since he left
July 26, 2011 at 10:49 pm
Hendry is an excellent judge of talent.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH
“Douchecoptor”…. hahahahahahaha. Great image.
July 26, 2011 at 11:18 pm
Not just a “douchecoptor”, but a “flying douchecoptor”. I almost wet myself when I read that. That was a good one, Mac!!!
July 26, 2011 at 11:24 pm
Oh yeah, one more thing. Mac, you fucking retarded piece of monkey shit. Learn how to spell buried before someone initiates an assault on your spelling and grammar.

July 27, 2011 at 10:47 pm
2 off-days with the Houston Astros sandwiched in-between.
Basically 5 off-days. They have 13 games against divisional rivals including the first 6 against their most hated ones.
Look how they respond! Then again, why would they waste Matt Garza against the Astros? Well, they’ll just have to put up with Randy Wells now… lol.
July 28, 2011 at 7:08 am
Robert, I’m going with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Haven’t won the Cup since1967, and just don’t seem to ever put it together to even make the playoffs. They are now the Original 6 team with the longest drought of not winning the Cup.

July 28, 2011 at 2:02 pm
About goddamn time Fuc-u-do-me was sent packing.
July 28, 2011 at 4:31 pm
Does Mike Quade still think we have a chance to contend?
July 28, 2011 at 4:40 pm
if he does, he’s delusional.
I’m tired of Quade’s bs regardless.
Clean house. Trade Ramirez and Zambrano while they are worth something. Or is it too late (haven’t been keeping up)?
July 28, 2011 at 5:11 pm

I see the “fans” are still showing up to the commode called Wrigley; 39,000 to 41,000 per game is not going to make Ricketts pee in his diapers and do what has to be done.
So, get used to years and years of losing Cub fans (real fans). In my opinion the only option now is to dump em and find another team.

Pie, you would have enjoyed the old site. It got pretty intense at times….but was not over-run with juvenile idiots…(thankfully, we haven’t had much of that here lately).
21 games below .500! But, you’re still contending, Quade! Hip hip hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep up the great work.
