No, but I will seriously and I mean SERIOUSLY start following Cricket HOWZAT!!!!!!!...whatever the hell that means ------------- "You may have a heart of gold, but so does a hard-boiled egg." Navjot Singh Sidhu
cricket is the only sport i've ever seen to have a decimal in the score. that's when i gave up trying to understand.
I've never heard of a decimal in a cricket score...well, you can have fractions of an over reported, but that's not really the score...ahh, cricket, gotta love it...
I disagree. I think many Sox fans enjoy the fact that our team is a bit less in the limelight because we dont get all the BS hype that you guys do. I think many Sox fans like it that way. PS Go Braves!! PPS Yes my friend REALLY would suicide bomb the Cubs dugout. He was 100 percent serious when he made that remark.
I revel in my hatred of the Cubs. I drink deeply from the well of anti-Cub feeling precisely because of arrogant posts like this. It's even worse right now because I live in Lincoln Park, home for the ignorant tranplant Cub fan, who pays attention when "Sammy" is up, in between hitting on the Trixies in the world's largest beer garden. At least I have the Fire to slake my thirst for championships! And yes, I am miserable right now, thanks for asking!
Two of the three best assets the Sox have had in the last 20 years they GAVE to the Cubs -- Harry and Sammy.
This is funny. Mac, I think you're proving his point. How pathetic is it when a team's best asset is the announcer? GO FIRE!
Just to show how wrong you are: Before Harry the cubs never sold out, the bleachers were not popular and they didn't have to open the upper deck most games. With tv shots of good looking women in tank tops in the bleachers and harry talking about them, they are now the hottest tickets.The Cubs now have the money to spend they didn't under Wrigley. The Cubs payroll is usually higher than the sox because they can afford it because of Harry. Now the cubs management does not always spend wisely that is true but at least they have the money to spend rather than having to have white flag sales. macktheknife and bunge just come on and say Fanaddict you are correct, and I bow to your wisdom.
1. The worst part is that, I have a job where I talk to people across the country and I have to put up with all the comments to the effect, "Pretty happy about the Cubbies, huh?", which my response is to the effect "Do nightmares make you happy?" 2. I have vowed, once I win the Big Game lottery, to purchase the Cubs and Fire, plow Wrigley Field into the ground, and build the Firehouse there! That way everybody wins . 3.Thank God for the FIRE!!!! Chicago team Power Rankings 1. Fire 2. Cubs 3. Sox 4. Bulls 5. Bears 6. Hawks Who cares (at least on these boards): Wolves The Arena-American Football Team (not the U.S. national team )
White Sox fans are consumed with jealousy for their more attractive sibling. White Sox fans are the Jan Bradys of sports. "Cubbies, Cubbies, Cubbies"!
As I sat and watched a pitiful performance by the Cubs today I realized that when I watch the Fire, even if they're down a couple of goals, there is always a sense of excitement because I know they can pull it off. Watching the Cubs was painful because it was pretty obvious they probably couldn't (almost proved wrong in the 9th), and most likely wouldn't (proved right). The Fire is a team that has a world of talent an a level of confidence that even their fans feel. The Cubs looked beaten before the third inning, and from that point on it just wasn't fun to watch.

I wonder who Anty Rayzov likes? (please tell these FSW announcers how to pronounce names) Help me I am in Cub hell!! The worst part is that the Fox announcer kept talking like all of Chicago is partying down. AAHHH!!!
Yes, Arnie Harris was the master of getting shots on tv of hot women but it was Harry talking about them and in general making wrigley field seem like the fun, drinking, party type of place to be that popularized wrigley field.
advantage me may have been confused by the period/comma switch they do over there (that is, they use commas where we use 'decimal points', and periods where we use commas in numbers) in any case, how sick are the Sox fans today? personally, I've never really understood the hatred between cubs and sox fans - living far enough outside the city has afforded me the opportunity to root for all of Chicago's teams as my own. And before all you rabid north and southsiders start bellowing about how you CAN'T BE A FAN OF BOTH TEAMS, I mock thee one and all, for I have had twice as many baseball seasons to enjoy as any of you. mh - looking for a Cubs - Boston world series.
