"Turd Throw" and other stories from the rancid NLC.

[Apexx]

I'll tell you something I'm not tired of: Derrick Turd Throw and the train wreck that the Brewers have become. It's true the Cubs couldn't take advantage of the shit that's passed for first-place baseball in the NL Central this month but we can still have some fun with the strokes the Cubs can't seem to catch.

So this is the new thread for all things shitty and Cub-like about our enemies.

To Wit:

In today's game vs. Atlanta, the Brewers went ahead 2-1 in the bottom of the seventh on a Tim Hudson wild pitch. Enter Turd Throw for the eighth and **Cub-blewie!!**...

Ouch, babe. Let's see if the Cubs can top that! Or better yet, let's see if they can't for once.

I take full credit for that since I turned the game on just as Diaz was getting thrown out at first.

How did Turnbow look?

I didn't watch, but my guess is probably "emo."

White trashy. 

He was throwing hard, of course, but it was crazy wild.  Like his hair.  He seemed pretty unaffected by the whole thing, though.  Just his usualy mouth-breathin', lookin'-for-a-fix self.

Sensitive, yet disshoveled emo or poppy, punk inspired i-hate-my-shopping-mall emo?

Nothing about that guy is sensitive. 'Cept his right nipple.

One of my friends here is a huge Brewers fan and I can't even enjoy their suckiness because ours is so much greater.

Well, there are some Brewers fans here too. And their suckiness is all I have left in the world. Except for the Reds' suckiness. Oh, yes. There is that.

At least the Reds have The VORP's greatness to bask in.

At least the Reds have The VORP's greatness Arroyo's music Harangatang's breath to bask in.

Deadlegged.

Not to mention the Aardsma walk was on four pitches. I still love that guy. Probably even more now.

The Reds suck but every time the Cubs play them, it feels like I'm watching a team try to play baseball in quicksand.  I fucking hate the Reds.

And the Sox clusterfuck does take some sting out of the Cubs’ clusterfuck--especially because in the AL Central, these blown games REALLY hurt.
