Back. Back. Back. GONE!

After giving the Brewers a 5 run lead in the first inning before they Cubbies even got up to bat, they have fought back to win against the Division Leaders! Aramis Ramirez with 2 outs and a man on first, goes up to bat and hits a shot to left field with the wind blowing in his face!! The cubbies win 6-5. Hell of a game!

Ok when they have a chance to make the playoff you come back and then I'll see if I care but until then watch the "Impaler" Vlad Guerrero and the Angels dominate the AL West. Now there is a World Series contender. Hoping for another one out of the (Los Angeles) Angels of Anahiem. Oh yeah and when the Lakers get Garnett they are going to be a contender as well.

**Sampson** · 06-29-2007, 08:30 PM

To start, the lakers arent getting Garnett.

Second, let me know when you stop jumping on a bandwagon each and every year,and then MAYBE your opinion will be worth more than shit in a bag.

Are you kidding me. Bandwagon, always been a Lakers fan and Dodgers fan and when you are an LA team I almost have to like you (minus the Clippers) and when you have the most exciting player in baseball in Vlad Guerrero you are ok in my book. Oh yeah and if you happen to be a Bulls fan I hate you because sure Michael was the best ever but you have to realize he had no one to play against. Magic and the Lakers had to go up against Larry and the Celtics. So Michael's six titles should really be about 3. Its like making the case for Tiger being the best golfer ever but no one challenges him. He has a few guys that play good in maybe a year or two period but they fade. Jack had to play against Gary Player and Arnie and he actually came from behind to win a major but that is beside the point. Call me a bandwagonner again.

Okay, I will. First of all, the only thing I said about the Lakers was that they were not going to get Garnett, that had nothing to do with the bandwagon comment, so that is besides the point. Second, you still didnt mention anything about the Angels except that your favorite team is actually their in city rival, and now suddenly they are your favorite because Glad is on the squad.....that makes alot of sense? Then, out of know where, you start talking about Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, thats an entirely new topic, and if you wish to discuss that, feel free to make a new thread and I will surely chime in.

Now, back to the fact that you are a bandwagoner like every other year, and the Angels have suddenly skyrocketed up the ladder to your favorite team in baseball.....

Ok they are not rivals. The Dodgers rivals are the Giants and the Angels rivals are the A's. The Angels had a Husker on there team who happened to also play Football at Nebraska and thats what turned me on to them but now he plays for the White Sox a team in which I enjoy watching for Ozzie but other than that I can't say that I am a fan of the White Sox. Now I have been an Angels fan for about 10 years now and if you want to mess with the Rally Monkey go ahead. He'll whip your Cubbies ass. Oh yeah and why would you want to associate yourself with the worst baseball team in the league. If I do know one thing it is that I hate the Cubs and their whiney ass fans. When you win a World Series in this century(give or take 2 years) you come find me but until then I don't care about the Cubs winning 1-0 or 100-0 because in the end they are the most sub-par franchise in baseball and even with Soriano and Pinela and Lee you can't seem to find .500. Oh and that marvelous pitching staff that has really been spectacualar this year. Oh and if you want to question why I am a fan of LA teams there is a simple reason. My grandfather was from LA and it just got passed down. Also if you want to mess with the Galaxy, Kings or others you can try but the only bad one is the Kings and since they lost Gretzkey to retirement they have sucked hardcore but I still stand by them. But I don't think I am a bandwagoner at all. I like watching Cardinals games and I like Albert Pujols and I liked that they won it all last year but I liked it because it was the Cubs rivals. I liked it when Boston won a few years ago because I hate the Yankees and now their 26 Championships isn't what people gravitate to its the fact that they are the punch line to the best comeback in baseball history.

**Sampson** · 06-29-2007, 11:17 PM

Where do I even start. Saying the Dodgers and the Angels arent rivals is like saying the Cubs and the Sox arent rivals....its just not true. Maybe its not the BIG rivalry, but they still hate each other, and the fans just don't get along. That's all I have to say about the Angels, so now on the the Cubs. Have you been watching much baseball lately?? The Cubs are .500 LOL, and they have won 7 straight. The rest of the garbage you wrote again, is irrelevant to anything that I have been talking about. I don't care about the Kings, Gretzkey, Pujols, or Boston.

BTW, you won't have to wait too long for the Cubs to go to the playoffs.....just a few more months ha!

**RisingAgainst** · 06-29-2007, 11:22 PM

I'd just like to say... HA BEEOTCH!

stope · 06-29-2007, 11:29 PM

I believe they beat the White Sox 3 times who are far from a playoff team and the Rockies 3 times who are a joke and they just beat the Brewers who will win the next two. So before you mouth off about a win streak make sure it is against a team that isn't a glorified AAA team. And if you weren't aware the Dodgers are leading the wild card by 5 1/2 games over the Cubs so if you want to make the playoffs you have to get through them who happen to be in the best division in the NL which makes them a whole lot better than the Cubs because as you know you play each team in your division 18 times and when you are above .500 in the best division in the NL you are doing pretty well. Oh and btw when the Cubs play interleague and other divisions they will lose and I bet you they finish behind the Cardinals in the central which would ultimately put them out of the playoff because the Cardinals will finish worse than .500 this year. Also I will put a bet on the Angels winning it all this year.

And I would like to say he is not seeing things clearly to think that their winning streak means anything at all along with that ".500" record.
