See you on Saturday. No billy goats or magic pixie dust will save your Cubs.

Hey at least we beat the Cardinals by more than 1 run... :kissass:
Do me a favor, don't blame some dork with headphones when it all goes south again.

Hey, that was a Domer. Keep that off the ND board.

Just having a little fun. CI knows I'm messing around.

I won't pull focus. It is USC week after all.

I know, I'm also kidding. Not everyone remembers that Bartman was from ND. Not our finest hour, although I always thought that kid got blamed because the Cubs choked away that game. Anyway, that won't happen this year.

I didn't know he was an alum. I think he is unfairly blamed for that. No one blames the 3 other guys going for the ball too. And that doesn't excuse the bad plays afterward. Or Dusty not pulling Prior. And I was living about a mile from Wrigley during that series.

People conveniently forget the meltdown by Prior, the very next pitch was wild. He should have been taken out, he wasn't.

Then, the error by Gonzalez at short, which would have gotten an out at 2nd, and possibly an inning ending double play. But all that goes unnoticed because some guy was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Oh it will be brought son.

Game 1 - Lester (3.34) vs Harvey (2.71)
Game 2 - Arrieta (1.77) vs Syndergaard (3.24)

I like our pitching match ups for games 1 and 2

Games 3 and 4 aren't favorable match ups for the Cubs.

These Cubs just need to get that first win tomorrow and go on one of their streaks. If they can sweep in Chicago I feel confident in a series win. Only take 2 and I think it's wait until nest year....

Can't win a World Series when you sit back and wait for the long ball.

You have to Pitch well, and you absolutely have to play defense.

You need a Daniel Murphy.
