How to Break a 97-Win Team
The only time I read Bleed Cubbie Blue is when someone on Desipio links it. For someone on Desipio to link it, the writing must be worse than normal. So when I saw a link to the hilariously stupid “Building A Cubs Champion: Introducing Your 2009 Chicago Cubs” I had to click it. [...]
Just When I Thought I Was Out, The Muskbag Pulls Me Back In.
You finally get a Godfather quote and it’s from Godfather III. How does THAT feel? Anyhow, I saw the Muskbag was back, and I couldn’t let that aggression go unchecked.
Magic Number Countdown: 11
11 more wins. That’s all the Cubs need to collect to make the unthinkable thinkable and to set off what will be the most ridiculous party in the history of the city of Chicago. You know HJE has a plan to count this down in style. Below are my top eleven moments [...]
THIS is the Best the National League Has to Offer?
If you didn’t think the Cubs were in pretty good shape in the National League playoffs before, you should now. When Lou Piniella uses Kevin Hart and Bob Howry out of his bullpen, it’s clear that he couldn’t care less whether the Cubs win or lose a game. Yet they still managed to [...]
Sweet Uncle Lou’s Friday Roundup: The “Someday is Today” Edition
First off, Kermit wanted me to let you know that he has the three most important Cubs songs that you need to know before the postseason starts posted in the sidebar now. I don’t even know what a sidebar is. Commie. You guys like how we gave the Brewers a scintilla of [...]
It’s a Terrible Time to Turn on the Large Hadron Collider
If the Cubs decide to follow my clever plan to sweep the Brewers at Wrigley Field this week, they will have wrapped up their second playoff berth in two years. That hasn’t happened since, oh, 1907 and 1908, the only two years in which the Cubs have won the World Series. So, is [...]
Muskbaggery
This week’s Muskbag is chock full of personal questions, propositions, and SAM FULD. Hurray!
Sweet Uncle Lou’s Friday Roundup: The “Get Bent, Hillbillies” Edition
The Braves are rapidly rising up my list of teams I hate. Seriously? After the headhunting bullshit they’ve been pulling for the last two years Yunel Escobar is going to cry about getting plunked by a guy who throws an 87-m.p.h. fastball? I also noticed those Coca-Cola-loving assholes were awful quick to [...]
Ryan Theriot Proves that Anyone Can Have a Mailbag
I guess my good friend PAUL SULLIVAN must have lost my phone number. He had a perfect opportunity to give his old pal Bad Kermit an opportunity to berate a bunch of dopey Cubs fans, and he wasted it on Ryan Theriot (be sure to check out the post-Mailbag comments; brilliant!). Fortunately, the [...]
HJE Presents…The Dumbest Muskbag Ever
Prepare to have your mind blown. This Muskbag is a Muskbag so astonishingly stupid. So incredibly ridiculous. So offensively bad, you very well may stop rooting for the Cubs. And you would be right to do so. There are, apparently, Cubs fans who inhabit the deepest, darkest, dumbest corners of [...]
