Got any tips for Lou? /puns
Stigs is busy doing something more worthwhile than posting thoughts on the last week of action in a division that nobody likes, so taking his place today is everyone’s favorite commenter Sportsgal. I’ll admit, I was surprised by her thoughts. Take it away Sportsgal:
The Cubs should be ashamed of themselves. From top to bottom, they are a disgrace. GM Jim Hendry should kill himself. Derek Lee should quit playing baseball. Soto somehow forgot how to hit. Aramis Ramirez is a wuss. I want to punch Alfonso Soriano in his vagina. Milton Bradley smells like fart. Lou Piniella knows less about baseball than the Polish guy who lives in my building who has never watched a baseball game. Mayor Daley should demolish Wrigley, leaving an open pit in its place where Cubs fans can be shot and killed and buried atop one another for all eternity. That may sound classless, but he can put up a nice plaque commemorating it and raise money for the city by selling tickets to view it. Everybody wins.
Class of the division: Still the St. Louis Cardinals
Did you know that Kyle Lohse, Jo-Elle Pineiro, and Adam Wainwright are a combined 10-0? What the [bleep]? That shouldn’t last though because it’s Kyle Lohse, Jo-Elle Pineiro, and Adam Wainwright. To further prove my point, Pineiro is 4-0, but only has 6 strikeouts. That’s 2 k’s per 9 IP. You won’t see that duplicated anytime soon. I expect Pineiro to be 4-4 by the end of May.
Team of the week: Milwaukee Brewers
Milwaukee has won 4 in a row and 8 of their last 9. Offensively they have a different leader in each major category, which says to me that they’ve been pretty balanced. Perhaps most importantly, Yovanni Gallardo looks like he’s fully recovered. That guy’s been a beast. If Prince Fielder can continue fighting off diabetes, Milwaukee may just become the team to beat.
Looking ahead:
Milwaukee’s at home against Arizona this weekend, then it’s all division foes at Pittsburgh, at Cinci, followed up by three wins against the Cubs next weekend at Miller Park.
St. Louis has a weekend series at Washington, then back-to-back 2-game series’ at home against the Phillies and Pirates. Odd. Albert Pujols will probably finish the week with a line of .330/.430/.580 because that’s what he does every week.
No other team matters right now.
ED: This may or may not have been written by Sportsgal
I agree.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Since the Cubs haven’t won a World Series in 100 years they should just forfeit the next 100 years because they won’t win anyway.
/Bears fan logic transferred to Cubs fans
i couldnt care less about wrigley field . instead of worrying about preserving ficticious “ghosts”. the cubs and even the cubs fans need to worry more about winning a fucking chip than about whether or not they ca go to a old ball park and hang out. in the words of the immortal herm edwards “we play to win the game!” we dont root for a team because they have the best party atmosphere. those people who go to wrigley to just party instead of watching a ball game should kill themselves. then and only then will the cubs win a chip.
/end rant
//fuck the cards
///fuck the brewers
Everytime the Cubs lose, an angel gets laid.
they dont dicks or vags
/dogma
mjer, if you took out all the people that go to wrigley to actually watch baseball, the place would have about 100 people in it, all cheering for the opposing team. wait a minute, this doesn’t sound too bad. i think you are on to something here.
kinda like busch stadium you mean?
/vicious turn-the-tables burn!
mrerj, have you ever been to busch stadium? it may be full of mullets and camo clothing with the sleeves off, but they know a thing or two about baseball.
Cardinals fans claim to be the smartest in the league.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
/I thought she hates this site.
nice post, SG
what does actually being there have to do with anything? i’ve never been to yankee stadium (actuall i have) but i don’t need to go there to tell you it smells like dead fish and hair gel.
Goof ojb, sporsgall
Hairy Carrray wuld be pruoud
Sportsgal also wanted me to point out that she is now rooting for the White Sox. I told her we’d welcome her with open ass.
