Great Expectations....Pffftt....

whatupz.jpgI'm just sitting here staring at the screen and I'm not sure what to write. The Cubs lost.....again as Carlos Zambrano officially pulled himself out of the running for the NL Cy Young Award. I know Aaron Harang has been tough on the Cubs the past couple of years and all, but come on, it's Aaron Harang. Four hits over the first seven innings and five hits for the game is not going to get the job done. Of course, last night the Cubs decided they would start hitting homers again (three of them), but since no one was on base when they did it they caused very little damage. I don't know, I don't know....the Cubs need to win the last two games of this series because.....We are now back to the point where the Cubs absolutely must win games. They've jacked around enough that they've missed out on opportunities to take over first place and now they are in need of wins.

The Cardinals come into town this weekend and the NL Central race has gone from a two person date, to a date where your ex shows up at the restaurant and decides to join you two. It has become just that uncomfortable. I'm not even sure where the Cardinals came from.....are they playing that much better or are the Cubs just playing that much worse? The Cubs play them four times this weekend and the Cubs need to send a message. I'm going to the game on Saturday with Buck and I can assure you that if the Cubs lose that game I'm going to send a message to the Gods of Drinking and to my liver.

Ugh...I might have pictures from the game last night at some point today. The Lovely Dentist attended with a group of her lady friends and was going to do her best at getting some pics with her Cobra Brigade Press Pass. Seeing as I didn't hear from her after the game....she may have gone on an all night drinking binge and may be laying on a sidewalk along Waveland Avenue, I'm not sure.

Also, I wrote down my thoughts on this three team race in the NL Central over at Epic Carnival, so check it out.

I'm fairly certain that your liver will be hurting regardless if the Cubs win or lose. Especially if we can sell those tickets.

Step 1 - Buy bleacher seats at Wrigley.

Step 2 - .....

Step 3 - Profit!

I'm doing whiteout whippets at work today trying to get last nights Zambrano beat down out of my minds eye. I can't believe Ted Lilly is my hope to stop the losing streak. I also can't believe Ted Lilly is a #2. Can anyone call Rick Reuschel to see if he is available or alive? Hell, I'll take his brother, Paul, at this point.

I'm just sitting here in disbelief today about life in general....join the club.

buck up little trooper. it never really gets better. houses, wives, kids, and the man all suck out your will to live. sports and fantasies about banging your female boss are the only things that keep you from hanging yourself in the cubicle.

Wow, I only have the house and 'the man' right now and I'm where I'm at....I guess I do have the Cubs and TLD to make up for the wife and kids
