This team is hard to watch. I think Apex said it best: when they get into a stretch of games against good teams, look out. We're talking about some epic losing streaks.

I said that? Jeez, what a dick.

Having paid attention through the first couple of weeks of the season, I'm already losing interest.  Did the Cubs win last night?  Did they play last night?
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

I think this conversation belongs in another thread. I also think that when Wells and Cashner get back the Cubs are going to catch the clusterfuck of rancid teams in front of them and bump uglies with them for a few months. If that's not your idea of a good time, Fork has a bottle of something for you to try.

Healing is well underway.

Was a mere flesh wound.

This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

What Chuck is saying is that he feels better because of Soriano's baserunning blunder that decreased the Cubs' chances of winning.

Chuck wants the Cubs to lose. How is he any better than bid Laden?

You don't see me criticizing this thread, do you?

No.  I expect them to lose.

It's very Bin Ladenish.

While I may be Bin Ladenish, Soriano's line isn't much better.  Since Osama's grey matter met sunlight:

Soriano: .278/.333/.361 with 1 HR, 3 RBI, 14 K and 2 BB.

Osama has only 2 fewer walks.

That's not great but certainly not abysmal. Especially given the sample size in question.
