Bummer. The UK baseball presenter actually forecast the Cubbies to win their division.

Still, at least you have Sammy to put a smile on your faces [img]smile.gif[/img] One homer away from 50 - bummski!

The Giants seem to have other plans. :D

Stinking Giants! I went to the game back in the late eighties/early nineties when Will Clark slid into second and tried to take out Ozzie. No harm just a good hard play. Well our second baseman at the time, Jose Oquendo(I've got another story about him I'll tell another time), gave "the thrill" a little smack in the head and that's when the fireworks erupted. A real brawl with Whitey and R. Craig and everything. Not like the talk at home plate they had last night after the Kenny Lofton thing(which I think was uncalled for). Anyway I hope the skirmish fires up the Cards and we go on to win, or at least make it a good series.

There is one difference, I see. The Cubs alway suck, it's a given( no offense).....We (The Mets)Just spent a lot of money to improve.....and ended up in last place. That hurts worse....

The crappiest team in baseball has one of the best fields and some of the most loyal fans. Go fig! But Wrigley is a wonderful venue. :D

I'm starting to think the Cardinals fans here pushed this thread to the second page on purpose. :D

we're just lulling them into a false sense of security ;)
