I have to savour this moment while it lasts...September has not yet arrived! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

As of August 23rd:

CENTRAL W L
Chicago Cubs 65 60
Milwaukee 65 62
St. Louis 61 62
Houston 57 70
Cincinnati 56 70
Pittsburgh 54 71

BTW...My Cubbies are still playing in a historic stadium, WRIGLEY FIELD!!!!!! (How many stadiums have been "mandated" to be built by the Cardinals, lest they leave St.Louie?!....Let's see....there was Sportsmans Park, Busch Stadium One, Busch Stadium Two.....)

/bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

I doubt seriously if St.Joseph has the infrastructure for a major league ballpark (much less a farm league team for that matter...we can barely support Little League!)....

All in good phun, Janel....

 

[jaybird]

My dear, deluded Mr. Ingram. Yes, please, by all means, savor this moment, indeed, September has not yet arrived. Because, by September, you will find your Cubs the same place my Cardinals are... at home watching the playoffs and World Series on their plasma televisions.

The Cardinals may not do it, but I can promise you as much as I can promise you I will never own a 'rumf, it will not be the Cubs. And remember, I OWN a Ryne Sandberg Cubbie Cabbage Patch doll.

 

[Steve]

Well, as a cheesehead-by-default, I have to root for Milwaukee of course, that is if I were a baseball fan. Soccer season has started however, and that's all I am really concerned about. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

Go for it Barry,after all you play with an oval ball don't you?? /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif

And <u>NO</u> pads.

 

[Steve]

Yes, you need bigger balls to play rugby. Barry will confirm that.

On the field for the entire game, no pads, no crash helmets, no coming off the field to let the offence or the defence play next, no quarters, no time outs, no constantly going into a huddle to have someone tell you what to do for the next thirty seconds, no going in for one play then coming out again to suck oxygen because you had to run twenty yards. Now, which set of players are the sissygirlymen now? /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif

Men play Football. Intelligent men play Soccer. Intelligent men with a mean streak play Rugby.

 

[Guest]

I thought the difference between Rugby and Soccer is that in Rugby the hooligans were on the pitch rather than in the stands.

I never understood baseball - isn't it just rounders with gloves to protect the players delicate little handies?
