I told one of my Cub-fan friends before the series started that if the Dodgers win this series, I wouldn't be shocked to see them win the three games at Wrigley and go 0-2 in L.A. On the surface that doesn't make much sense, because the Dodgers were a much better team at home this year than they were on the road, but this thing is about pitching matchups.

I have zero confidence in Kuroda, and then I think Ted Lilly will get the job done for the Cubs in Game 4. It has looked like a total mismatch so far, but I think the odds of Kuroda beating Harden are slim, and one victory by the Cubs can turn the whole thing around.

We got 3 games to win 1. Be terrific to win a playoff series at home. Dodgers have been much better at home this year. Kuroda can be a warrior. It's a matter of whether he has anything to give. He is very mentally tough, but he is unprofessional at controlling his pitches. He can go from contending for a no hitter to getting knocked out in the 3rd or 4th inning. Given this particular situation, I think he is gunna step up, and be a warrior. It's a guess though. I absolutely love watching Furcal play this game. He was our heart n' soul, and then he was gone. I think just about everybody thought we lost him for the year. Getting him back was a big surprise. Watching him hit, and streak down the 1st baseline is a huge rush. I think he is a big part of this. He gives everyone that lil extra bit of confidence. He is a star. Absolutely a star. Now we have 2 stars. We have beaten this team here this year. I think they are gunna do it, and the party is gunna be a blast. This organization needs to win a playoff series very badly. Everybody wants to win a world series, but a playoff series win is gunna bring a lot of pride back to an organization that has had it's a-s-s kicked around for 20 years. Most of these guys still have that sick feeling from getting swept by the Mets. This is the only way to get rid of that embarassment. We don't have much to close games with right now. We have got a problem with Saito. He is not right. I think we can take this at home. It's important to do this at home with the L.A. Fans. They are gunna be determined. If CUBS want this, then they are gunna have to beat a very hungry group, and very hungry fans.

I'm going tomorrow night, and I ain't gunna btch if they don't get it done. To Dodger fans, success is winning a playoff series(especially at home.) I don't even think about them going to the World Series. Even if they lose 3 straight, it's still the best year we've had in 20 years. This is house money. We got Billingsley's best. Maybe we can get a good one from Kuroda. If they lose 3 straight, it isn't gunna be as bad as 1980. They had beaten the Astros 3 straight to end the season in a tie. I got out of school and had good tickets to the one game playoff. They were right behind the Astros Dugout. That was a very bad day.

Could of gotten them there, but we are gunna eat on the way. The official name appears to be the "All You Can Eat Pavillion." I sat there when I saw Fernado beat Righetti in the '81 World Series. For some reason, I don't like it as well as being behind the plate. Even if it's top deck behind the plate. It's better.

He stepped up. Being at that game was the most fun me n' my Dad ever had together. He is 77, and fat. Winning a playoff series before he kicks it wasn't looking like a very good possibility. Kuroda really came thru for us. Fans were so into this game. The Cub fans sure showed up in our house, and with every pitch people were talkin' s-h-i-t back n' forth (all night.) Something about this team is different than the ones who won the World Series. These guys really appreciate their fans, and share it with them. Broxton was throwing strikes. I couldn't believe it. This fatboy was actually getting it done. Went right after them. It was amazing. Finally got that monkey("can't win a playoff series") off our back.

You see Bowa do this? Hilarious. I'm sure they talked about it a lot on T.V.

I'm looking at the video of some of these breaking pitches from Kuroda, Wade, and Broxton. Can't believe it. All pitching with great break...LOL..

I remember that picture. There was nothing that I could have done to that picture to make it any better.

Nothing like a win for a fat dad.
And having fun with a fat dad.

On to the World Series for all the sons with fat dads.
Congrats to the passionate Scuds man.
