Ya think that LOU would yank Dumpster by the neck OUT of this game BEFORE he walks two and serves up a tater for a grand slam?? Freakin’ Dumpster can’t find the k-zone with a beachball...SEVEN WALKS and finally the Bums knock him out...what a HORRIBLE start.

Dumpster throws five games in September and had seven walks in FIVE Games, tonight he blew it big time/.

No they’re going to get swept in three games like last year. A bunch of f’ing losers. Why not just forfeit the playoffs?? They can celebrate their stupid division title ever year. Eyes roll.

Ummm Cubs = losers. I’m not sure why I’m drawn to them. They’re a bunch of losing losers who cannot even win against a pitiful team like the Dodgers. I cannot wait to watch Zambrano self-destruct and give up fifty runs tomorrow. Yes.. I’m a fan, but I also understand that this is the Cubs. Chicago has a bunch of loser sports teams. The only team that was any good was the MJ Bulls. Every other one = disappointing (even the Ditka Bears).

This is not looking good. The walks were the killers. Two SOLO homers and we're right there.

The Cubs have had enough baserunners but have not gotten them home.

Very weird. So unlike Dempster.

Now it's 6-2 in the eighth. Yikes.

This game is over...we got idiot SorryAno swinging at crap in the dirt all over and Fukudome is 0 for the summer and STILL Lou plays him. D. Lee, Rami...ALL of ‘em are unable to hit the ball.

This is NOT what we expected tonight...

I’m going to bed.

I know that feeling. I'm a Mets fan.

7-2 now, they brought in Maddux to finish...not a bad idea to get in some work if he's going in game 4. Nice start to the postseason, a win here is only win #2 in the off season in 20 years.

Really thought they would put a run together 2 years ago, but that damn baserunning mistake really took the wind out of their sails...after that it was good game, good series...

Nice to see a different start this year! Unlike '04 and '06

Cub fans are arragant, obnoxious SOB’s. I agree with Obama on one issue. If I lived in Chicago I’d probably be a White Sox fan. They seem more real. Cub fans are just a bunch of diva wannabees.

No unfortunately it isn’t. Considering the way that Zambrano is pitching, there’s going to be another crap sandwich of a game tomorrow. I’m thinking 12 or so runs by the Dodgers. The Cubbies should just the forfeit the rest of the series and start their vacations early. As long as they’re in Chicago, they’re going to fall apart in the playoffs. Perhaps when Mark Cuban buys them and moves the team to Charlotte or somewhere similar they’ll start winning World Series every year. Cuban can then turn the land around Wrigley into luxury condos (Wrigley’s land value is the only thing valuable about the Cubs).
