August 6, 2017: Tables Turned
It sucks when it happens to you. When you blow a lead, and let another team comeback and win a game. That was the case Sunday in Wrigley, as the Nationals took the rubber game to win the series. The … Continued
August 5, 2017: 1130 Boys
They did it again. Another 1130am start time on Saturday, another solid performance. It’s amazing the difference between games at that times vs games at any other times. It was great. I’m really proud of the way they are hitting … Continued
August 4, 2017: Basement Bulls
We interrupt this regularly scheduled Cubs blog with some negative thoughts about the upcoming Bulls season. We know it’s going to be bad right? The early NBA win total projections are coming out, and they look accurate. ESPN says 28.5; … Continued
August 3, 2017: One of Those Games
That series finale versus the Diamondbacks looked to be one of those games. One of those games that we’ll remember for the rest of the year…for many years. It all started when the Cubs were down 6-1. As I left … Continued
August 2, 2017: Comiskey Park III

July 31, 2017: Fine Tuning
The heavy lifting had already been done come the trade deadline Monday. The Cubs have their prized addition in Jose Quintana. The remaining wish list contained some relief pitching, a veteran backup catcher, and possibly another starter. We crossed two … Continued
July 30, 2017: What We Do
Excuse me, but I’m feeling pretty damn good about the Cubs these days. They closed out another series win against the Brew Crew and extended their lead to 2.5 games in the division. You really didn’t think Milwaukee would be … Continued
July 29, 2017: Our Very Own Crosstown Classic
Due to the rainout last week, and a re-scheduling glitch, it was our 4-6 year old Cubs matched up against the White Sox in a double header this weekend. It was our very own Crosstown Classic. It started off the … Continued
July 28, 2017: Couple Years
I guess we could have let the Sox win the Cup. This series was way more important to the Sox and their fans. They won’t be winning much from here on out this year. What do we care about a … Continued
