Cubs/Marlins Playoff Update - Page 6

Guess the Marlins are the worst team in baseball tonight.

JML · 10-08-2003, 11:15 PM

I think the Cubs have a shot at winning this one.

Worse.

AnotherAlias · 10-08-2003, 11:18 PM

Don't count the Marlins out.

11-1

edm · 10-08-2003, 11:21 PM

They only need 10 more of those.

AnotherAlias · 10-08-2003, 11:22 PM

There goes one.

holyroller · 10-08-2003, 11:23 PM

Seriously, so far this series has been all about the HR.

JML · 10-08-2003, 11:23 PM

How dare they!?!? Don't they know about the unwritten rule where you don't hit back to back homers in a blowout?

jaxmagicman · 10-08-2003, 11:23 PM

Just go to bed AA, the game is over. I would be willing to put my life savings on the fact that the Marlins are not coming back.

I'm really surprised that FOX hasn't cut away to the Red Sox/Yankees game since this one is a blowout. I haven't even heard them mention the score in that game.

I should have told you ahead of time to look for my old buddy Wayne. He has a beer stand in the park that he runs.

"Cubbies doin' pretty good this year!" He used to say this all the time.

I played in a band with his brother in the mid 80's.

Section 419, Row 10, Seat 8. Upper deck reserved, right under the broadcast booths. The seats were great. Looking at the broadcast booths, look at Harry Caray, right and down.

Here, the Yanks/Sox game is on FOX. the Cubs are on FX.

AngelinOF · 10-08-2003, 11:36 PM

I have the same game on both channels, relying on the ESPN scoreboard for updates to the Yankees/Red Sox game. The funny thing is that the game on FX has about a 2 second delay.

Hmmm, that's a pretty brilliant programming strategy.

Some kind of comeback code again. Inflate the ERAs a little, you know?

This game reminded me of Game 1 of the 1984 NLCS, when the Cubs won 13-0.

The difference now, going to Florida, is that we are bringing Gonzo, and not Larry Bowa, as our shortstop. LOL!

I do miss Shawon Dunston. He was clutch.

I thought the cubs broke another unwritten rule by bunting with a huge lead. Of course, Prior was the one doing the bunting.

Big Willis 16 · 10-09-2003, 01:26 AM

Its the playoffs, all unwritten rules can bite me!

AnotherAlias · 10-11-2003, 02:38 AM

The Cubs win a critical Game 3 in Florida.

This series could go down to the wire, but I hope not, of course.

Glanville is most definitely CLUTCH!

Did anyone hear the crowd roar when the game ended? A lot of Cub fans down there.

Go Cubs! Game four tomorrow.

AnotherAlias · 10-11-2003, 09:12 PM

Aramis Ramirez Grand Salami!!!!

4-0 Cubs.

edm · 10-11-2003, 09:15 PM

He's clutch!

oh sorry, thought this was the Glanville thread.
