Well, at the halfway point, I'm not shocked the Cubs are in first place. I think there is no question they are the best team in the NL. I don't know if the Cards can hold on to the WC spot. The Brewers really improved them selves with CC. Best of luck to all in the second half...

4.5 games is not a mountain. I can only hope the Cubbies can keep it up in the second half, once they get Soriano back into playing shape and get the rotation settled.

Didn't I hear that Carp might be back relatively soon along with Zito, or was I dreaming that?

Bite my ass. Freaking goodie goodie. Show up around here to spread your sunshine and bullshit like tea and crumpets. Blah blah blah... good luck everybody... a regular Mary Freaking Poppins, aren't you?

See, you have to actually have a team in the hunt to have good luck, and I don't. The only good thing about the All Star break is that the Disassholestros can't fall any further back than they already are.

So take your Redbirds and your Cubbies and shove them where the sun don't shine.

Better yet, here's a Bird I can get behind...

IS IT FOOTBALL SEASON YET??????????????????????

Asshole.

I am glad someone can take pleasure from my pain. That's not the usual way I roll. I guess I am baseball's beeyotch.

Looks like June is coming later this year for the Cubs. Somebody...anybody learn to hit the fucking ball!!!
Hey Jarhead, don't you want Marquis back? Please?

COme on Hugh!!! I am ever the optomist but they scored 10 last night. They had a bad couple of games where they didn't have Soriano and Ramirez is like 1 for his last 29 I think. Plus Fukudome is struggling and I think he will turn it around. I still love Theriot though!!! He is still solid as always!!!

We suck so bad that I am going to break my own rules and tell the Karma Gods to kiss my ass.

What could they possibly do to me that the Lastros haven't already done????? Swept by the fucking PIRATES AT HOME!!!!! The gods have abandoned me.

BUT AT LEAST WE TOOK TWO OF THREE FROM THE CUBBIES FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!! I was at the game on the 19th when Zambrano got smacked around. That was too funny. I was kind of hoping he would go postal, but oh well. I'll settle for the win.

Hey Wench...every team that the Cubs have played the last couple of weeks have won the series. But guess what...they are still in first!!! When you are 20 games over .500, you have the luxury of going through a minor cold streak!!!

BKG's...I humbly worship you

We lost a true legend yesterday. He's the only voice I associate with Braves broadcasting. I am mourning. Here are some reactions from Bobby Cox and other long time Braves players:

Screw Jim Edmonds... no, seriously, I would, in a heartbeat. Boy be FINE. But that hot fucker is a bitch in the outfield at Minute Maid Park.

And the karma gods have not yet brought me back to their altar. Oh, they are trying, all right. But NO FUCKING DICE, BKG!!! I am not going to fall for that, do you hear me!!!!!! NO WAY!!!!

I hope it's nothing too serious with Carp. He was pitching very well tonight, so I am glad to see him out of the game, but not that way.

Speaking of pitching well...holy crap Dempster has been lights out this year. He is making a serious run at the Cy Young award this year!
