Sounds like a plan.

Paulino is a dead man.

Today is the day that _______________ (fill in the blank) remembers that he is a major league ballplayer.

Here is the Chicago Cubs' lineup for Friday's game against the Houston Astros:

1. Ryan Theriot, SS
2. Kosuke Fukudome, RF
3. Derrek Lee, 1B
4. Aramis Ramirez, 3B
5. Marlon Byrd, CF
6. Alfonso Soriano, LF
7. Mike Fontenot, 2B
8. Koyie Hill, C
9. Carlos Silva, P

[VanSlawAndCottoCheese]

No fair filling in the blank with Koyie Hill. He never was a major league ballplayer.

[ColoradoCub]

What's the wind like today? Trying to decide if I should take a chance and put Soriano in my fantasy lineup.

[Coach]

Appears to be blowing in from LF

Why are they playing that godawful Bon Jovi song before each game? Fuck I hate them.

My wife surprised me today and upgraded my tickets from bleachers to the new PNC Club.

The place is pretty sweet. Basically the Cubs took 5 skyboxes in RF and converted them to a club. Ambiance is muck like a high end skybox at a new park.

Tickets include all food and drink so I'm off to get my money's worth.

Will send pics if folks are interested

[Coach]

Wow, awesome man.

Aren't those like several hundred $$$s each? You must have a great woman.

You see the kind of teammate Byrd is?
