Supposedly Pence is batting further down the order. Seventh, maybe.

Also, I am very excited.

Another year of misery and heartbreak. I can't wait.

I'm already agitated with the 2009 team, and a pitch hasn't even been thrown yet. Just a few days ago, I was all sunshine and rainbows. Can't wait to feel like this for another 6 months.

Same. Exact. Feeling.

Seriously, did someone flip a switch?

Add another. I don't have that "this is the year!" optimistic approach for the first time.


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - kbwsb - 04-06-2009

I do. We're a good squad.
Soon, Lou will realize the idiocy of his ways, and flip Fuk and Theriot in the order.
That alone is worth 5 extra wins, maybe 10.


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - kbwsb - 04-06-2009

I'm kidding of course, but I do think we'll be a solid squad. I think this squad should win the Central, and hopefully with a juicy enough win total so that we'll face a wild-card squad clinging desperately to life.
I see us winning that series, then popping the Dodgers squad in the LCS, and finally finishing off a tough Tribe squad in the Series, with Font beating out an infield hit, Theriot scoring from third, and Wood getting tagged with the loss.

We're a fine squad.


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - Ace - 04-06-2009

It would be really f'd up if this team doesn't make the playoffs...


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - Quinn - 04-06-2009

I'm ready. I'm pumped. Put last year behind us, it's over. We are tied for first a 0-0, ready to go! Lee is going to turn it around, Z is going to win 20 games and Gregg is gonna rock as the closer.

Let's do this!


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - wcplummer - 04-06-2009

I'm ready to go home start a fire, watch the snow fall, eat some nice warm chilli , and watch ....baseball. Fuck this weather!


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - Jody - 04-06-2009

This is the year bitches!! The third time is the charm!!


Opening Day: Cubs @ Astros - Butcher - 04-06-2009

I have the Opening Day Jitters and I have almost 9 hours to wait before the first pitch...
