We lose Soriano and just keep on trucking.

Sidenote: The Astros are so bad its laughable

Cocktooth · 04-19-2008, 03:49 PM

Now if they can get Ted Lilly's head out of his ass, the world would be perfect.

Ugly Bastard · 04-20-2008, 01:43 AM

The Astros are truly pitiful. The team is ran by these painfully dumb good ol' boys who are friends with the owner.

I'm all-in on the A's this season, so fuck the Astros.

Cocktooth · 04-20-2008, 02:41 AM

Wow, UB I never thought of you as a fairweather fan. I guess the move has messed with your sports heart. I began moving a legand into marriedhood, and now I have to realize the fact that a sports fan legand has moved into a fair weather fan. To think I was a fan of UB. Guess I will have to change my fanhood!

Ugly Bastard · 04-20-2008, 02:46 AM

Fuck the Cubs.

Luckily for you, my liking them isn't a pre-req for you liking them. After all, you're a sports fan legend.

I'll take a picture of my towering stacks of benjamins when the A's win the World Series. SHIP IT ONE TIME PLZ?!??!

How much will $100 be worth in todays money in Twothousandnever?

BigDongedHoe · 04-20-2008, 02:17 PM

I remember back when the cubs made their run and were 5 outs from the World Series. UB was sitting at my house while we played cards, I was a moderate cubs fan at the time, nothing near what I am today. He was nervous and so excited to see the Cubs play and to turn his back on them and say "Fuck the Cubs". Wow, just wow.

Its alright anybody who can go to Wrigley and sit in the bleachers and still say "fuck the cubs" has major problems, its the greatest franchise in all of professional sports by a long shot.

Beebs · 04-20-2008, 08:18 PM

If by greatest you mean most laughably pathetic, yea, thats them.

Cocktooth · 04-20-2008, 08:36 PM

A franchise that can be so bad for so many years, and still have the following they have should be considered a great FRANCHISE. Granite, WGN has a huge factor in that, as it is shown throughout the U.S. As a franchise, it is one of the greats in all of sports.

BigDongedHoe · 04-20-2008, 11:27 PM

TBS covers the Braves and they don't have half the following the Cubbies do. When I say great I'm not referring to winning as in great. I'm referring to fanbase, atmosphere, stadium, and overall following. The Cubbies are probably the second (or third) most followed team in professional sports. I could see it argued that only the Yankees and possibly the Red Sox have a bigger following.

Said the battered women about their abusive drunk boyfriends.

No way man, I really highly doubt it.

Man U, the Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers, Real Madrid, Fuck just about any European Soccer club and I'm just getting started...

BigDongedHoe · 04-21-2008, 10:15 AM

I was going to say United States as I knew the European soccer clubs have bigger followings.

I still don't see near the number of cowboy and packer fans at opposing stadiums. On any given away trip the Cubs can sometime outdraw the home teams in fan numbers. I went to a game in Cinnci last year and the stadium was probably 60/40 Cubs fans. When they play @ Arizona (cubs spring training is down there) usually they draw a huge turnout. Same thing in Milwaukee, St. Louis, etc. All have huge Cubs followings in their stadiums when the Cubs are in town.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 04-21-2008, 10:59 AM

shit heap

Cocktooth · 04-21-2008, 02:54 PM

Soccer. Ewww

BigDongedHoe · 04-21-2008, 09:48 PM

W flag flies again in Wrigley tonight... BONERS!

BigDongedHoe · 04-24-2008, 11:31 AM

10,000 wins last night one of only 2 franchises in baseball (Giants) to win that many games.

15-6 tied for the best record in the majors winning 6 in a row without one of the best players in the lineup. I'd say we have a pretty good fucking ballclub.

Go Cubs Go!

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 04-24-2008, 03:14 PM

Baseball wouldn't be quite as annoying if its season wasn't practically all goddamn year long.

Orgazmo · 04-24-2008, 04:31 PM

That's the truth. Maybe if each game lasted like 45 minutes it would be okay. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. They're just unbearable long instead.

BigDongedHoe · 04-24-2008, 05:53 PM

I felt the exact same way you guys did about 3 or 4 years ago. I'd watch a Cubs game here and there and watch the playoffs but never really cared much about it. After attending over 15 cubs games in the last 3 years my tune has completely changed. I truly see why it is America's pastime and have come to really respect the tradition involved. The best part of it is unlike other sports I get to watch Cubs games nearly everyday giving me something to look forward to on TV.
