That's how I feel. I'd much rather just not make the playoffs than get our asses swept again.

And yes, I'm in 100% Bears mode.

The Bears...where Cubs and Sox fans come together in peace and harmony...

[biggz]

Fuck yeah, Go Bears!

Ooh...new episode of Man vs. Food is on. Awesome.

that's pretty inexcusable from Lee.

How many warning track balls can we hit, while they pepper the basket (not that it matters).

And nice to hear the Cub fans booing the asshole who poured beer on Victorino.

[jstraw]

I remember a well-timed brew for Dykstra. That was different.

never watched that show. Not one second. The previews for it make me want to hurl my intestines up.

D-U-N.... Done

Seriously, the dumbest fucking fans around. Pouring beer on a player while he's trying to catch a ball and chanting "Let's Go Cubbies" down 7 runs with 2 outs in the 9th. What a fucking embarrassment our fan base is. I wish I wasn't a part of it at times.

Every fan base has its fair share of morons. You should have seen some of the retards I had to deal with when I was in Miami -- and they only have about 30,000 fans in the entire state.

I'm not excusing the behavior -- I hate it too. But it isn't exclusive to the Cubs.

What a waste of time.

[vegascub]

And they threw the wrong guy out.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Adding to the embarrassment, a fan in the left-field bleachers threw a cup of beer on Phillies center fielder Shane Victorino in the fifth inning and got away with it when the security guards nabbed the wrong man.

While security was questioning a man who was taunting Victorino after the soaking, the real culprit left the ballpark. The Cubs are working with the Chicago Police Department and plan to release a photograph of the beer-thrower from WGN-TV video in hopes someone will identify him. The Cubs want to prosecute the person to the fullest extent of the law.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Everyone keeps calling it beer. It was a clear liquid and there were LOTS of ice cubes. Also, he threw the whole cup and the cup hit Victorino too.

[Jody]

Classy all the way.

[funkster]

If I were the guy wrongly thrown out I'd be demanding some free tickets. For being thrown out...and for having to sit halfway through that pathetic game.
