I agree that Howry should not be on the roster. Not sure what Lou will do though.

NOW you sound like a Cubs fan. I told you not to get your hopes up.

My point is that anyone who really is a Cubs fan should know better than to get their hopes up and really think that "this is the year" or anything like that. I Love the Cubs and I will always root for them and enjoy being a fan. What I am saying is that being a Cubs fan means you always have lingering doubt and despair lurking somewhere in your mind.

I never bought into the "This is our Year" stuff but to see them look so horrible last night really has me more worried than we should be. Alfonso Soriano has to step up

What really needs to happen is that Soriano needs to be benched and Fontenot put into the lineup. Soriano is HORRIBLE in the post season (.225 BA).

As a Red Sox fan who remembers the dark days of Dent, Stanley, Buckner, Clemens, Duquette, and ****ing Grady Little, all I can say is this: someday Dave Roberts will steal a base for you.

I'd love to see what ****ing excuse they have for this. I can see them in their press conference saying how sorry they are and how they don't know what happened. Ill tell ya what happened, they let this crap get to their heads. I hope Soriano and Zambrano are enjoying their millions of dollars because they sure as hell didn't earn them. I'll tell ya one thing though Zambrano is no longer my favorite Cub. Unless he gets his head examined by the best ****ing shrinks out there he can piss off.

Enjoy your advancement to the NLCS Dodgers. This would be Cubs dynasty is over.

Normally I can take some solace in this but that would be the equivalent of a guy with no arms laughing at a guy with no legs.

Are you ****ing kidding me? We could have ended the second inning without the dodgers scoring(the inning that the dodgers went up 5-0) if Theriot, DeRosa, and Lee hadn't ****ed up on those plays! It's not Zambrano's fault that they were fielding like ****ing minor leaguers. I think this game would have been completely different if they hadn't scored in the 2nd. And what I'd like to know is what the **** Lou was thinking when he let Fukudome stay in and let Ward pinch hit in the 9th. Put in Johnson, put in Fontenot. ****, Fontenot alone is probably hitting better than Fuku and Ward combined!!!
