My wife and I had the pleasure of attending the first game of the Cubs-Angels series yesterday. The Miller Lite billboard beyond right field read, “Welcome to baseball heaven.” After watching the horrible defensive play of the Cubs yesterday (and really for a while now), I’m not ready to come to the conclusion that heaven [...]

If you attempted to follow the live blogging for yesterday’s game, you noticed that:
1. If you get up early enough on a Saturday morning, time plays tricks on you and you you head out the door 5 hours before you wake up.
2. Live-blogging didn’t work. I don’t know care why. But since [...]

Andy and I will be live-blogging via our Twitter account during today’s trip up to Wrigley Field to watch the Cubs take on the Cardinals. From what I remember, the times on these entries can be messed up. So don’t let the times confuse you.
6:14:11 AM: About to head to Wrigley. Had work [...]

Cubs vs. Cardinals. I believe it’s one of the best rivalries in baseball. My feelings may be biased though, as I grew up in the heart of Cubs vs. Cardinals territory. I draw the Mason-Dixon line of these two clubs at Galesburg, Illinois. The Quad Cities Area is 45 minutes north [...]

I know it’s been talked about all day today and the last thing that is needed is another opinion on the matter, but seriously, what an asshat. Of course, I’m speaking of the guy in the front row in the white shirt. The second he threw the beer at Shane Victorino, I was completely embarrassed [...]

I just started watching game one of the Cubs/Phillies series. Since the Cubs have underperformed the first half of the season, I’ve had to remind myself that I still really like baseball, good baseball, and just enjoy watching the game without worrying about the standings. After a pretty weak first half the Cubs are just [...]

Last night, I went to see the Angels play the Rangers at Angel Stadium. Although I would consider my 2nd favorite team to be the Angels, the distance between them and the Cubs is great. I don’t know much about their players and I merely glance at their scores in the paper. They were a [...]

A swing and a miss by Harris!
Yesterday, my wife and I got to go to see the final game of the Cubs-Twins series, and it was the first time we have taken a bus trip to a game. The Cubs are now 3-0 in games I have attended. I realize the fact that I have [...]

Well, partly cloudy. There has been a lot to talk about over the past few games, and much of it is negative. I’m not going to think about it, though. I’m heading to Chicago today to see the final game of the Cubs-Twins series. All signs point to slump buster today–Ted is pitching, and the [...]

I’ve been putting off this post for a few days, but a Monday night with no Cubs game and a wife that wants to watch The Bachelorette is giving me the 20 minutes it takes for me to construct a post and then go back and attempt to fix all my grammatical errors.
During Lou’s presser [...]
