The Official Cubs Playoff page

I think he was referring to times overlapping between the Cubs and Brewers games... obviously in Milwaukee the Brewers will get TV preference over the Cubs

No, you have to realize I am one of the 25 people in the United States that doesn't have cable or satellite, so I don't get TBS.  So, I was hoping (assuming) all of the playoff series were on Fox.

Sorry to confuse you.

Where she lived is still 312....72nd and Crandon.

No, 72nd is not 312.  Read my wiki link.  The southern most street is 31st.   72nd is 5 miles south of that.

Manny will be Manny and hit 3 game winning hits to knock the Cubs out after 4 games.

Had to figure it was only a matter of time before Dempster got rocked by the Dodgers. He was just awful tonight.

[Mayor McCheese]

So should I act like Marqptm and try to hijack this thread to say something bad about the Cubs like he did to the Brewer thread.  Nope.

Although the Cubs have looked bad in this game, you guys have Big Z pitching game 2, things should look up


Oh by the way Marqptm, before you blast the Brewers, you should wait to see how your Cubs do, because personally the Cubs have looked just flat all night, worse then the Brewers, but both teams didn't look like their A game.

talk about beat up the NL central day...ouch!

Yeah no kidding.  I think both teams get wins tomorrow and split the 1st two.  Here's to hoping the Brewers steal one at home (one of the non-CC starts) and allow us to get to CC for a game 5.

F that. The Crew has been great at home. Sweep the next three. I'm only half-joking.

I think we take tomorrow's game, lose game 3, and win the last 2.  It'll be tough going to Philli for a 5th game, but right now CC is the most dominant pitcher in baseball.  If we don't find our offense then we might get swept.  We'll see.

[AlumKCof93]

Cubs are in trouble.

The Dodgers have not been a good time for much of the year, but they really put it together the last month or so.  While Manny is obviously a huge part of that, Andre Ethier has been incredible of late and Furcal is capable of being great. IMO, not much of an upset if the Dodgers win the series, especially if Soriano continues to swing at everything.

Two straight NLDS sweeps. Awesome.

Be happy to get there, some teams have to wait 26 years to experience even that (which is all we are going to experience)

[IAmMarquette]

Looks like the NL Central, even with the team with the best record in the NL, and the Wild Card, was a farce. Here's hoping our respective football teams (with the Packers ahead of the Bears, of course) can hold us over until basketball season starts.

[Hards Alumni]

well, remember now, its baseball.

anything can happen in a 5 game series and I would certainly argue that a 182 game season is more idicative of a teams ability than a single DS series.

Happy to get there?  HAPPY TO GET THERE?  I was happy to get there in 1984 when I was a freshman in high school and I thought that it was the best thing ever that they made the playoffs.  Until they found a way to blow a 2-0 lead (even though they had crushed the Padres in the 2 games in Chicago) in a best of 5 series.  I was a little less happy to get there in 1989 when I had to listen to that @!#$&^ Will Clark hit home runs while sitting in the back of Calc III at MU.

After the "you know who" game in 2003 I actually had to go for a walk at 10:00 at night in my unlit subdivision because I thought my head would explode if I stayed home on my couch.

Sorry I am anything but Happy To Get There this year.  This is BS.  This is personal!  If anyone knows of a support group to stop being a sportsfan, please let me know.  I can't take this anymore.  I think I actually made up new swear words (at least new combinations of swear words) last night.  It has been 33 years for me and they just keep ripping my heart out.

HELP ME!  Maybe I should just be a Pirates fan.  At least they are consistant!

[tower912]

Root for the Lions.   Their pathetic play is eternal, without the maddening flashes of hope.      Turn out the lights, put up the stools, towel off the bar,  cubbies, it is closing time

[MUEng92]

...without the maddening flashes of hope. 

That is music to my ears.  I think that my be my new slogan!

[wadesworld]

Well we can officially end this topic...HAHAHA.  Was it PTM who used to have his signature as the Cubs fan sweeping?  Could you please find me a similar one just with a Dodgers fan instead of a Cubs one?  Ironic that you had that.  Gosh, the Brewers are playing later in the year than the Cubs are...WEIRD!

Anyway, I hear there is a party for all Cardinals, White Sox, and Brewers fans at Marquette next weekend officially celebrating a century.  You have to come dressed up as something important that has happened since the Cubs have won a World Series (so dress up as the Titanic or something).  Not sure where, but that's what's happening.  "Next year's our year!"

All you guys had to do is let a freaking goat into the ballpark all those years ago and you wouldn't be in this mess... 

[spartan3186]

Brewers fans are really being dicks today. You have won ONE playoff game in 26 years. Congratulations. I know at least 15 Cubs fans who were at the game rooting for the Brewers today, myself included. Yet I get to the bar afterward and I get ripped on mercilessly by jackass Bewers fans for cheering on my team. It was very frustraing, I would think after 26 years of losing you would at least show a little class and not rip on people when they are already pissed about losing and dropping a deuce in the playoffs. Yes the Cubs sucked, most Cubs fans will acknowldge that. Let them fester in their own frustration rather than rubbing it in.

<Rant Off>

[MUEng92]

Who knew that it was even possible to be an embarrassment to the uniform of a team that hasn't won a championship in 100+ years?

These guys found a way to do it!

Screw it, I am done with them and baseball!

(If only I could follow through with it)
