I CANNOT wait to hear the **** he will get from Bryzzo the first time he does a Latin dance with his shirt unbuttoned to his naval!!

after the incredibly useless season of The Bachelor, the timing of this could not be better. Rossy doing it for the Cubs! Lackey..is going to have to look away SO not his cup of tea..omg the more I think about all this the better it gets Javy can't dance so Rossy is safe there, but Twitter is gonna be on fire Monday nights

Chicagoland fans...the game is on WGN today starting NOW! DVR it if you can't give up a Saturday (like me today)
Cubs vs Dodger's

Rizzo out with back tightness still, Schwarb's in the 4 spot, JHey lead off which will give him more at bats and hope he can get something going

I was invited here by robinb (thanks!).
Long time cubbies fan and as with finfan, long time dolphins fan.

I've had so many people ask me if I've always liked the cubs and although I can't say my whole life, 83% of it, 43 years...you do the math.

Glad to have other Disney, Cubbies and Fins fans! Did I die and go to heaven?

FINFAN I don't know if it's true or a hoax, but word on the street is that Busch Stadium banned those "Try Not To Suck" shirts! Maybe the word "suck" hits a little too close to home for the Cards this season

They might do the same for Dolphins shirt I saw. On the front it says, this is Richard, he's a patriots fan. On the back, it says don't be a ----. While, I'm a long time cubbies and fins fan, I don't think shirts like that are good...we are all different and all have different preferences and even if I don't like your preference, it's a good thing...if we were all the same, life would be boring. Although I personally don't care for the patriots, I think a shirt like that does nothing other that to incite negativity and would never buy nor wear one like that.

Welcome Docsoliday! Rare to find the same sports combo fan base Add in WDW and FL? Are we family? lol

 

[docsoliday1]

Well, I'm a Buffett fan, I'm a Cubs fan, I'm a Dolphins fan, I'm a Disney fan (although not FANatic...there is a difference) I consider central FL home, so if we're not related, we SHOULD be.

Wish I could get baseball without paying a small fortune. I got rid of cable and satellite several years ago due to expense and customer service (HAH!) and I miss two things (baseball and football). To get either via streaming (like I did with netflix and amazon prime), it's a small fortune. Besides, I don't want ALL of baseball or ALL of football....I want Cubbies and Braves and Dolphins and Falcons (yes, I'm in ATL). Don't get me wrong, not that I wouldn't watch other games occasionally, just not enough to justify the expense.

I watched streams from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MLBStreams/ . There are some streams that have nasty/annoying popups. I keep very up to date with my pop-up blockers and virus checkers.

Not sure of the channel selection but the new Amazon tv may be an option..I think it runs about $35 a month

That is very cool...maybe this will get him fired up again...he was struggling for so long. I remember when he first came into the league (for Braves) and he was on fire. Then the pitchers figured out what he struggled hitting. I hope this is the start of a great comeback for him.

Thanks for the pointer. When I looked at this, all they had were highlight clips...I didn't see where I could actually watch the game. I'll confess, I tried the other night and was busy with several other things so I didn't persist very long in my attempts.

They are live streams so I don't think there is anything interesting there unless the Cubs are playing.

Nice W today against the Rockies~ Schwarber seemed pretty comfy in the lead off spot, especially with his BOMB!!!! Ian Happ~ening knocked one too!Looks to me like Szczur and LaStella battling for the 12th spot (assuming 13 pitching, which I hope)..all in all tho, guys are looking GOOD!
