2012 Chicago Cubs

[Tinker to Evers to Chance]

Anger!

Nah.  Tell me you didn't at least chuckle at Loss #11 occuring via a walk-off HBP.  

I will admit, however to wondering that if catchers are really athletes, why couldn't that dude who played HS ball with Neil Walker have just jumped, or dove, over his crouched counterpart?  I mean, you know...that's a run, kid, and you're a catcher yourself--you expect to kick the ball out with a little slide do ya?   D'UR.  

Bad baseball, but this is what we expected and, to an extent, what is needed, isn't it?  I honestly can't get despondent over this streak yet either.  They could lose 20 straight* and it wouldn't be as bad as an 0-14 start, so bring it on. Is this the best bad baseball you got?  *pounds chest*

*If they lose 20 straight I'll literally eat a Cubs floppy hat.

I'm not angry at all. Just mocking those that are. We knew this team would suck.

Everyone not named Yellon or Ricketts.

No, Chuck.

No, Chuck.

[Slaky]

A bunch of worthless shit. 

STOP IT

[SKO]

A bunch of worthless shit. 

STOP IT

May 30th, 2012. The day Slaky realized Desipio was pointless. NEVER FORGET.

[Eli]

A bunch of worthless shit. 

STOP IT

Yes, Slaky.

[Bort]

A bunch of worthless shit. 

STOP IT

Yes, Slaky.

Yes, Slaky.

I positive the firmness with which this front office comports itself.  Have to remind myself that big boys are in charge and that's a good thing.

"On both fronts, on short- and long-term, there's work to do," Epstein said. "Short term, in the trenches, there's work to do to get ourselves to a respectable level. We have to start playing for some pride right now, dig in. This is a bad stretch. Just sort of appeal to the base instincts and start scrapping and keep grinding for pride. Long term, it underscores the magnitude of the job here and sort of how far we have to go."

Some days it seems that Seabiscuit's Jockey's been beating this (ahem) dead horse about Rizzo being called up because he's just bored, but it's nice to see that they're not going to let that diminutive twat hound them about it.
