Wait, that's how Sullivan quoted him? I'm expecting the atomic wedgie of a lifetime tomorrow at Wrigley Field.

Wow. I hate that. They used to do that with Sammy too. You know what he's trying to say, and I'm pretty sure he'd appreciate it if you wrote it how he's trying to say it. It makes the one writing the story look a lot worse than Zambrano in my opinion, so I don't understand why they do that.

Sullivan was on the Dan Patrick Show today:
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->The Chicago Tribune's Paul Sullivan joined the show to discuss Carlos Zambrano's explosion yesterday.

Dan asked Sullivan if the Cubs should try to reign in Zambrano. "I don't think it's possible at this point," Zambrano said. "The guy is just a lunatic." That being said, Sullivan said that he thinks it's an act from Zambrano. Sullivan says Zambrano enjoys the limelight.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

What a sad, sorry little man. How ironic that he says Z enjoys the limelight, yet he's making a name for himself by trashing the guy all the time through the media. Who's the media whore, eh Sully?

THIS. God, I hope those two gnomes Zell and Sullivan take a flying fucking leap into a pit of flaming bat guano.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <!--quotec-->After Nyjer Morgan scored on a wild pitch in the seventh inning, Zambrano argued that he'd made the tag before Morgan's hand touched the plate. Zambrano got into Carlson's face with the ball in his hand, repeatedly pointing at Carlson before being ejected.

Zambrano then pretended he was ejecting Carlson, and <b>purposely put his shoulder into Carlson</b><!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Yeah, that's how it went down. He definitely dipped down and put his shoulder into the guy. I think he misses at least one start.

Did anyone see Zambrano putting the Gatorade machine back together the other day when Dempster broke it after getting rocked a little? He was laughing into the camera. I think he fucked with it on purpose. It's going to turn into an on-going joke for the guys on the staff.

I heard that when Cotts was informed that he was going to AAA, he tried to go ape shit on the Gatorade machine and threw a fastball right at the big "G" -- of course he missed and the ball went into the tunnel.
Fat Bastard is an immensely obese, hardly able to walk (weighing a metric ton) gardener and henchman hailing from Scotland. His extreme size endows Fat Bastard with super-human strength as exhibited by his prowess in the Sumo ring from Goldmember. This makes him a formidable enemy for Austin Powers. Fat Bastard is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, his vulgar and revolting bad manners and his unusual eating habits, which include taste for Human infants (which he calls "the other other white meat") or anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people. Fat Bastard has been a regular at Cub games since the early 80's when he tried several times (unsuccessfully) to eat the visiting San Diego Chicken.

So...if timed properly, he'll only miss one start.

Could've been worse.

He's just going to miss one start, yes. They'll likely appeal and get it down to 5 I'd think. They should appeal this time actually, wait until Harden gets back.

He is not going to appeal. I was really worried MLB would dick around with this. This basically only pushes his next start back 2 days. If MLB would have made a longer suspension, and/or took a day or 2 more to decide, he would have actually missed a start.
I like you guys a lot.
