Safe to assume your article says something about firing Lou 3 or 4 times?

at this point its very unlikely we make the playoffs

especially if our offensive stays mediocre and inconsistent and our veteran players keep underperforming


and our bullpen is well..umm..ya

I just did this because the White Sox fan told me to write on this topic as he would too.

They need to play like they have these last 2 days. Yes, I'm including the loss. In the loss, they did only score two runs, but were hitting, and Lee and A-Ram drove in the runs, like they are supposed too. Today, Marmol struggled, but he always does in non-save situations, but they came up with big hits, caught some brakes, and didn't give up after finding themselves down 2-0 in the 1st, instead, they came back in the 3rd, when 2008 Rookies of the Year Geovany Soto singled, Jeff Baker got out, Starlin Castro singles, and Tyler Colvin homered. The three that got hits in that rally are our young position players who will be on this team for a long time. And, they didn't stop there just because they had the lead, they kept fighting.

The Cubs bullpen has actually stabilized and has been effective. Marmol just had a bad outing today.

Jesus Christ, I thought you said you had good grammar on your blog? I've seen a few spelling errors just from glancing over parts of it.

Don't think A-Ram should be in the 5th spot. Cubs need to hit definitely and especially with RISP!!

I did go over it and used spell checker but instead of pressing done checking, I pressed saved and I lost it. It was an honest mistake.

Every post on your blog has bad grammar though, not just the one.

I probably do the same thing because that things makes no sense. I always forget. And not all because when I have time I go over it but sometimes I just post it because I have to go somehwere and didn't have time to look over it. But I try to look over it.
