Don't get me wrong I would love if we would spend that kind of $, but that is not going to happen. Also, I have a soft spot for the Tigers, who helped ignite the Brewers after being no hit in Detroit the to go 24-10 after that.

The Cubs have not bought the best available. Soriano is the first big free agent we acquired. 1st,second, ss, 3rd have all been developed they were not superstars when we got them. Zambrano, Hill, Marshal, Marmol, Cherry, Petrik, theriot, Pagan, Fontenot, have all spent time in the Cubs farm league. The Cubs have developed some very good pitchers and are now focusing on some fine position players. We are not even close to how the Yankees and Sox acquire players. I wish we were though.

Go Cubs

Now you are counting on Kerry Wood. Best of luck with that. Lou has turned some things around and the Cubs are finding ways to win. I agree with that, don't count out the Crew yet. You have had a share of first place for less than 24hrs.

As your team implodes,you wonder why we are not worried.YOU CAN NOT FIGHT YOUR OWN COACH.

An old tired team that just won 2 of 3 against you. Also not counting on Kerry Wood he is kinda like a bonus. I did say, I hope the Brew crew get the wildcard though.

GO CUBS

All kidding aside, 1) I like the stadium alot there, great place to see a game IMO 2) It seems like you guys are finally selling some tickets to, which is a good thing 3) Good luck in the wild card

Cubs win this division by 6 games and clinch on September 22nd against the Pirates and I will get to see it live (going this Saturday also

)

There aren't many of us! Games are actually selling out and the stadium is great and many Cubs fan prefer it over wrigley. We always appreciate you guys coming up here and spending $, it is good for our economy.

Actually, if you have been watching the way Ned Yost coaches some times you might disagree. Somebody had to do something and Estrada was just fed up with Ned's coaching decisions.

In some areas of the country majic is known as cheating.

I don't see anything in the National leauge to beat Boston now.

Joe Saunders has been great. Jered Weaver has been so-so. The Angels still have a great bullpen in Krod/Shields/Spiers.

Go Cubs

But your other 2 top players with big contracts (Ramirez,Lee)were traded to Cubs in salary dumps by small market teams.

Scavs...If you are there today, please make sure when you give a standing ovation to Kerry Wood if he enters the game that it's really Kerry Wood.

Cub's fans gave a rousing ovation yesterday to Kerry Wood when he came in to pitch....too bad it was Bobby Howry, not Wood

Today was a good day at Wrigley. I almost got into a fight in the line for the bleachers after I skinnyed into the front of the line, "Your not getting in before my kids" "Hey **** you buddy I am with them

"

Get front row center field for myself and 11 others, have a good time, alot of brawls today for some reason, most likely because there were some hardcore Met fans there, and then am now home. I will say this, that area keeps on turning into more and more of a cluster****, just a free for all
