    Cubs eliminated from the playoffs

    Man...the Cubs looked good a week ago...but have done everything they could do to lose out...and they did...

    I wonder how many games they were ahead in this past week that they ended up losing...

    shows you what a bullpen means...

    Houston and the Giants all tied up for the wildcard...

    I'm a Cubs fan, and I don't know if I'm disappointed, or I feel it's par for the course.

    I knew after that series with the Mets that they were in trouble.

    God damn Cubs!

    That was quite a collapse. There really is no favorite this year to win the WS. Even the Cardinals aren't a favorite given they don't have a stud starting pitcher that can win 2 games by himself in the playoffs. I guess maybe the Red Sox and Dodgers would be the favorites from each league because it always, ALWAYS comes down to pitching in the playoffs.

    I wouldn't say always...most always though...

    I can't see the Yanks...their staff sucks...

    watch out for the Astros if they get in...decent sticks...

    and an above average staff that's just starting to click because of injuries...

    I agree though Lou...this is going to be one muddled playoffs...

    and the Angels are hotter than hell...a bit reminiscent of a couple of years ago...

    and a much underrated staff...and a great bullpen...

    I like Steve Stone. I've always thought he was one of the better color guys in the league. If they get rid of him for some critiicism of Baker, they don't need an analyst, they need somebody to toe the company line. Baker deserves lots of criticism, so do the rest of the guys.

    Is Pat Hughes still there?

    He was the understudy of Bob Uecker.

    Too bad for you Cub fans. You had it all so close, then choked it away. Somewhere, Steve Bartman is laughing.

    Another late collapse brought to you by Dusty Baker.

    Mezro...when you want your team to choke, let Dusty pull on the yoke...

    Cubs going to sign Garciaparra?

    Big collapse.

    And Vlad may have just won the A.L. MVP with his play the last 15 games.

    Maybe I don't pay attention enough, but is it fair to say that Wood and Prior disappeared this year for the Cubs? Did they do anything?

    I give Prior a pass, but Wood...I dunno.

    I think they MIGHT sign Nomar. Big might.

    They should get rid of Sosa. Bring up somebody else from the minors. Preferably somebody that's speedy. The Cubs as a team can't run worth a shit (besides Patterson).

    People said it was a black/white thing with why people sided with McGwire...I don't know about that...but I do know this...

    When the corking incident happen...there was a reporter who was the Cubs beat guy for years said that he wouldn't be surprised if that were true...that Sosa isn't the persona you see...that he may be a bigger jerk than Bonds...

    the difference is he respects Bonds for being exactly what he is all the time...a jackass...

    while Sosa...is a snake in the grass...acts like the cool guy in front of the camera...then steals your kids the minute it's off him...
