Sorry, poetic license

Riverview Stadium has a right field deck area with a hot tub. Its $30 per person for unlimited food and beverage from one hour before the game through the 8th inning.

You just cannot beat minor league baseball

I'll second that emotion!

Except for the Cub love part, for which my heart and what's left of my brain
still will forever be rooting for MY
SAN DIEGO PADRES

Who have just about the same LOVE/HATE quotient as your Cubbies.
We've just been to a couple more World Series lately.....

(oh, that's right .... you remember '84 )

You make it sound like wishful thinking!

Just playin' with ya Cubby!!! Don't be so touchy!

Neither one of us really has much to hang their baseball cap on!

I just got back from watching ST ball out in Phoenix last weekend
Saw your Cubs just spank the Angels. Pitching looks unhittable.
Your Cubs are gonna do good things

If I was in Vegas right now, I would put my money on Cubs to go to WS in '04
But I will still be at Petco Park on April 8 to see Opening Day for my

SAN DIEGO PADRES

Pad's made a lot of good moves.
And yes, the obligitory change of uniform style .....again. They have had more uni's then half the NL combined

Lightning Bolt · Post by **Lightning Bolt** » March 27, 2004 12:37 pm

I'm kinda PO'd about this latest "style" change.
Talk about just another way to extort money out of true fans who love wearing their team's colors.
The new colors are referred to as San diego Navy blue and Pacific beach sand.

What a joke!! It's freakin' BEIGE!!
The now look like the Milwaukee Brewers West

I got to watch the Cubbies today on WGN... could've just peed myself
with excitement! Loungin' on the couch with a hangover on a Sunday watching the Cubs... it was heaven.

By next week, they'll finally be home in Chicago!

Nice attempt at agitation Matt!

This has been speculated for a couple weeks and it was expected. Not to worry though, because divisions, pennants and World Series aren't won in April... or even May for that matter, which he may sit out too.

I'll quote Phil Roger's from this morning's Trib:

"Given the depth of the Cubs' rotation, it should not be cause for panic if Prior misses even six weeks or two months, as long as he is back to being himself for June, July and as far as the season goes.

...when a team's biggest concern is filling the fifth starter's spot, it is a very solid team."

Couldn't agree more IU, he'll be back in plenty of time to win 20...
Go Cubs!

I don't make the news...Just report it.

Pennants may not be won in April and May, but they sure can be lost then.
