So long, Fourfmeal.

Somewhere in Chicago, a greenie dealer weeps tonight Taco Bell is laying off staff.

How are the curbs outside Soldier Field?

CT might just as well come and say he's Pre, since Pre always pays and never shows anyway.

Is it worth $316 to come back to Chicago for the weekend and attend the rooftop game?  Plus whatever getting hammered with all of you Saturday night would run?  I'm kinda thinking yes.

I'm making the trip from Ogden.  The answer is yes, Ogden

Overrun Desipio Joke'd.

  Again, I'm up for whatever.

good. Bring a helmet.

On another note, anyone up for some sort of get-together on Saturday night as well, so all the morans who can't make the game can participate in dwarf-tossing Oleg some of the weekend's festivities?

OK, we're 7 days away. What building are we in, are we just on a guest list or do we have actual tickets, what time can we show up, and what do we need to know?

TJ, I'm glad you asked. Let me answer your questions one by one...

1) Brixen Ivy, 1044 W. Waveland

2) There is a guest list. I have everyone's real names, and they will be at the door.

3) 6:35 is when they start letting us in.

4) We're DOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!ed.

How many "seasonlong slumps" does a player get to have before they just start saying he sucks?

Yesterday would have been a 15-12 game if you had the 2000 Cubs staff. Marquis didn't have great stuff, but he lasted 6 innings. He's strung together some decent starts. He might have some value yet.  The next couple days could be, um, interesting.

The thing that was frustrating about this whole series is that the pitching staff had Chlamydia er Hermida or whatever you'd want to call that rare form of STD the first few games...and then it was one hitter that did virtually all the damage to Marquis (with the help of BB's and a HBP).

Sure, hitters get in grooves, but it also seems to reflect a total lack of preparation/clue to get someone out when you're handling 7 guys to only get smoked by the 8th.  Repeatedly.

And with an erratic offense, any chance we can pin some of that on poor advance scouting?  Seems to me that might explain a lot, from both sides of the ball.

Who in the world would call a man Chlamydia? That's disgusting.

Bounce his ass and see if you can get a servicable LH bat in return.

there's still some space. PM me if you're in for more people.

On behalf of a friend who can't use 'em...

4 tickets for Friday.  Section 122 (behind home), Row 6.  $60 each with a parking pass.

Chuck?  Feel like taking a writeoff to entertain some clients?  Anyone?

If they're gone, I'll update.  But I I wish I could use them myself.  It'd be a hell of a way to spend a Friday afternoon.

*sob*  *sniff*

Drown your sorrows at the coffee shop.

1990 was the first year I had season tickets.  I was going to stop at 2004 which may have been my least favorite team but Kerm and IAN already were expecting that so I'll stop here.

Sayonara, Chuckosan.

Huh?  I never said that.

I just assumed you were going to go all the way up to the final year of Soriano's contract.

he went up to Soriano's OPS.

There are too many things wrong with this tee shirt design.
