Lammycat Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 I don't feel bad for Cubs fans. I'm not a Cubs fan. I don't dislike Cubs fans, or the Cubs for any particular reason, but I don't feel bad for them. Link to post Share on other sites
embiggen Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I feel bad for Cub fans, they have been polishing their world series trophy since March and now this? It Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 if we lose tonight, we may be screwed. I hate to break it to ya, but only the Red Sox come back from no-wins-going-into-an-elimination-game-and-going-on-to-win-the-series type situations. So, go Cubbies!! Link to post Share on other sites

Man, it's only 1-0! also: I have not yet puked, but the game is still several hours away. These nerves are insane. This reminds me of exactly how I was feeling in '04. I was taking a creative writing class at the time and couldn't stay focused on it for two seconds, especially during the ALCS. Link to post Share on other sites
kimcatch22 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Man, it's only 1-0!Cynicism runs deep when you've been let down this much. You know that. This reminds me of exactly how I was feeling in '04. I was taking a creative writing class at the time and couldn't stay focused on it for two seconds, especially during the ALCS.I might go home sick. I seriously expect to hurl before the day's over. I can't even think ahead to the NLCS right now, especially after last night's performance. I imagine being a total wreck if we make it that far. {{huge knock on wood}} Link to post Share on other sites

kimcatch22 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 The guy in charge of Bleed Cubbie Blue is trying to cheer us up:http://www.bleedcubbieblue.com/2008/10/2/6...-cubs-lose-game Since I missed most of the game, I can't really comment on anything he says, especially his first point about the atmosphere. But it's interesting if that was the mood in the park last night (which I'm sure it was, he has no reason to lie about that.) I wonder how the crowd's energy will be tonight, since Big Z is such an energy feeder. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get it. Don said tickets were going for face value on the street right before the game. WTF. I will be down there tonight, doing my part to save the world and turn the energy around.

rareair Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I think it's all downhill for the Cubs from here on out. that's not exactly going out on a limb. big z and his 5.43 era in the second half will hopefully turn things around. Link to post Share on other sites
