…of the Breeeaaaaavvvve!
I’m at the office and the game is not being broadcast in my neck of the woods anyway, but I’m wondering about the condition of centerfield. Is noticeably damaged/repaired to those of you watching?
I’m in m car driving to Wisconsin now, but I’ll try to help you. Now where is center field?
Thank you for responding to ‘Cubs Live!  Astros at Cubs, 1:20 pm’ I can certainly help you with your question. Can I please have your telephone number or login ID?
JOCK MOTHERFUCKING JONES CENTERFIELDER EXTRAORDINAIRE
Dude, you aren’t suppossed to work on a game day! What is wrong with you! Turn in your Cub Fan Badge and decoder ring.
#4 is part of the 85% of people that actually work. Not the other 15% of cocksuckers who show up at the park. Asshole.
The outfield looks like downtown Baghdad. But that might be due to Jock Jones presence.
What’s that smell?
Thanks for all your help guys. I’ve actually played hooky many a day this year to watch when I can – seriously. I got my WGN on cable and my MLB Audio subscription. But I gotta work sometime to support my Cub habit and alcohol habit and a few other unmentionables. And I can’t stream audio in the office.
So how deep did Bobby Murcer–err,–I mean, Derrek Lee’s first inning flyout go?
Just wondering. I was away from my desk.
Judging by the Chads reaction in the stands, you’d have thought it hit Waveland on a fly. Morans.
I’m blowin’ in today, bitches. Quit trying to jack homers.
I mentioned that Lou said “Jock is my centerfielder”. Is he taking notes from Lovie Smith now?
BerkeleyCubfan? You have got to be kidding. I thought that I was the only one
I Love You, Chad! Now go buy me another Louis Vitton, you yuppie bastard!
I’m not kidding.
The Cubs may be Live! but this place is dead.
Gameday says Zambrano threw one of me to Hunter Pence. Just what the hell am I, though?
today
Damn right I’m the balls!
Last time I saw that it was because pitcher went to his mouth on the mound. I don’t know if that is indeed what just happened.
Everything’s coming up Millhouse for Jock: 1-2 in 2 trips to the dish with an RBI. Keep driving that trade stock up, you fucker.
just happened?
Somebody care to explain my last at-bat? From the looks of it, the Astros were throwing the ball all over the infield like they’re sponsored by Chco’s Bail Bonds.
Geovany Soto reaches on throwing error by third baseman Mike Lamb. Mark DeRosa scores. Geovany Soto to 3rd. Throwing error by first baseman Fat Elvis. One out.
WTF?
I’m pretty big today, eh?
Excuse me–
Jock’s actually 1-1. I didn’t mean to take 500 points off his hitting performance today. Must be my racist nature.
#28:
DeRosa took a huge turn around third on the first throwing error. Even though he held up and jogged back to the base, I decided to airmail third from across the infield, throwing the ball directly into the stands.
A mighty cheer went up from the fans on the third base line, DeRosa scored and Geovany made it to third (later scoring on Big Z’s RBI single).
Thanks Lance for saluting my return today with a craptacular throw.

Did you get the bills paid there, bud? I don’t see an ad right above Leave a Reply.
It is DEAD up in here. Must be a happy friday for most of you (you’re not stuck at work like I am).
Hey guys! It’s me, Chicago sports’ representative to the world! Better than having that icky Ashley Judd like Kentucky basketball.
I’m a complete hack.
Bases loaded, two out and a three-ONE coutn on ARam?
If it’s 1989, I send the runners. And, because it’s 1989, it works.
You’re getting ahead of my Yahoo GameChannel! WTF is happening in the game?
My dead brother was shorter in stature but 10 times more talented than me. Why do the good ones have to die?
Oh, God.
Even I’m sick of my schtick.
Jim Belushi. Now I’m thankful I’m not watching on TV.
I’m the funniest living Belushi. That’s something, right?
Sometimes the good ones like to do heroine and cocaine in copius amounts.
Mike Lamb’s flyout, according to MLB Gamecast graphic, went to the warning track.
True?
I’m on the fritz.
me too, #46.
Thanks to Lidge, my unique feature of the game has returned.
Like Mikey Barret, I’m an error magnet. Good thing is, its the other team making errors, not me.
I am the man
We’re clogging the bases.
Bases unclogged!
I am Jon Belushi’s corpse.
I know everyone says he’s in a slump even though he’s still batting around 320-something. Nice to see him get those runs in.
Thats some shortstop the astros got there.
Fantastic work so far. Hope it holds up on the drive home.
Bases clogged again. And Jock due up…
I got a DP in me today. I KNOW I do.
Ha ha! Only a FC! My overachieving continues!
I must be in a hurry to get the funk out of here since I keep swinging at the first pitch.
I am a huge fucking upgrade on offense, bitches.
I’m really not that good, bitches.
…but good enough. Happy Friday, bitches.
Happy Friday, indeed. Nice, solid win. Bobby H. was shaky again, but damn does the Marmot bring the positive. Go Cubs.
Marmolous
I was in the process of being carped the shit out of today….including getting some $54 tickets for $30 in the middle of the first. Hence why I was not participating in the game thread.
….anyone here?….
I am.
