Love the paragraph four from the bottom...pure comedy!

 

Can't wait for Cowley's exclusive, in-depth interviews from Miami. Wonder if he would have got the okay to go down there if not for the Cubs facing the Marlins?

Cubs in all 3 games, sorry Mark. Although I would have thrown a second vote towards upset that Zambrano can't have a meltdown, hopefully it happens at Wrigley later in the year. It is much easier to root for the Cubs this series, knowing they have nearly zero chance to make a playoff run this year.

I won't care. That game is so far from my spectrum of sports fanhood it's laughable.

[southsider2k5]

Neither. I'll be watching the Sox and Hawks.

[Balta1701]

Go Florida.

Im going to the sox game tonight, but ill of course be cheering for my hometown team all the way. Go Go Marlins!

[flavum]

Don't care either way, but will root for Buehrle.

[Goober]

Cubs in all 3. Hopefully by 10+ runs in each game

[flippedoutpunk]

Thats it Tim, you're out of here!

Marlins in all three, and I'm not even someone who passionately despises the Cubs. I'm good with them as long as they're not hoisting trophies into the air in late October. Despite a sloppy end to the Ballad of Ozzie Guillen on the Southside, he presided over my favorite sports memories. Buehrle is gone and he's still more of a face of the franchise than a lot of guys on the 25 man roster. Not quite sure why I would root against them. They're not in the same division, not even the same league.

Marlins.

I love Ozzie Guillen the player and Ozzie Guillen the manager.

He was part of the best moment of my sports life. Our winning the WS.

Never happened before for me; and never will again, barring a total miracle.

 

Too many teams in baseball that spend way more money.

I'm thankful the Ozzie led Sox were not satisfied with just making the WS but wanted to win it and did.

Mark! has a 6-0 lead on the Cubs.

Mark! has a 6-0 lead on the Cubs.

 

Got a hit too. This will be his first NL win.

The Cubs should be all but done when Miami rolls up to Wrigley. I really hope Zambrano/Buehrle/Guillen don't unreasonably inflate prices on Stubhub. Last year at the end of July, prices were well on their way to the $2-$3 per seat that they were going for in August/September.

[caulfield12]

If Guillen needed a cut man in his corner to stop the bleeding from the Castro controversy, Buehrle was the perfect candidate. Whether they're on the South Side or on South Beach, Buehrle always has had his manager's back.

 

"I hope he doesn't change," Buehrle said. "He's just going have to watch some of the stuff he says. I don't expect him to be any different than he has been his whole career managing."

Cubs looking like being swept is a good possibility, just gave up the early lead and now down 5-3 and sinking further and further record-wise.
