^comedy gold there man…
Cubs strike first
What the hell was Chapman doing pitching at the end of that game?

That's a very unMaddon like thing to do. He may pay for it in game 7.
Game 7 tonight!!!!!!
I don't care about sports.  I don't care about baseball.  I don't care about the cubs.  I don't care about bill murray, drunk or sober. 

but fuck me sideways . . . this shit is exciting.

I was thinking the same thing.  What's left in his tank tonight?

I hope Chapman gets roughed up tonight even worse than his girlfriend.

also thinking that he can use all his other starters instead of said bullpen tonight…..
There was enough of a run cushion to try and get a W with your pen first and save Chapman for game 7.

I don't disagree, I'm just guessing that was what Madden was thinking….
I kind of want both teams to win.. but I probably wan the Cubs more…just cause its been so long for them and I had a phenomenal time when I went to a game there… the whole area around Wrigley was just great.. a friend of mine used to live there so I used to go often…
I'm rooting for the Indians, mostly for Terry Francona, who I never thought got enough credit for the Red Sox success in 2004 and 2007…. a win tonight would change that….

yeah.. that is the reason I'd be happy if the Indians won..Terry Francona…if it wasn't for that I'd be all in for the Cubs..

there's a great picture of him in the Indians dugout when he was a little kid and his dad played for the Indians!
I want something awesome and dramatic that we will talk about forever.  Think Buckner, Bartman, Joe Carter/Willie Stargell, Kirby Puckett, Don Larsen, 1929 A's comeback over the Cubs - something memorable.

One of the best drunks to ever play the game.  And there's some good competition for that honor….
