Mariano, of all people. Absolutely incredible. No-doubt-about-it footage of him drenching the ball during the game yesterday. Nice work.

You out of all people should know he was not spitting on the ball, it cuts out way to soon to see where that spit landed. Epic face palm for you sir.

They cut it as fast as they could, because they knew they couldn't pull him down from his pedestal. If he wasn't spitting on the ball, why did he have his back to home plate, looking all around? I know when a little kid is doing that, he's up to no good. Human nature, my friend.
 
I am with you, Tom. Why hold a ball on top of two fingers like a snow cone unless you don't want to get the spit on your hand? The fat payroll gets them the right to spit on the ball, I guess. I need to teach some Reds pitchers that move. :whistling:
 
I hear spitting on your balls is a fetish in some countries :whistling:
 
At least we don't lose 1st place in monumental collapse two years in a row. Nor allow a grand-slam during one of those need to win games to a Cubs 5th starter named Jason Marquis!

I think that must be whatever country Moises Alou is from, cause I know they like pissing on their hands in that country.
 
No one is better than the Cubbies in that regard, we come in a distant second allright!

Well it beats the Prime Minister that used to drink his urine.

While this much is true, we don't attempt to blame our short comings on the fans. What jersey number did Steve Bartman wear?
 
No doubt, sure doesn't beat Bear Grylls either and every time on Man vs. Wild he pisses in his canteen or a snakeskin, or an intestinal track, then lugs it around for a while only to drink later. So gross.

Hey, I'm not one of those fans, there were at least 3 guys reaching, 2 of which when Moises missed pointed at Bartman. Don't forget Alex Gonzalez's big error on the next play which would have been a simple double play ball.

Cubs fans know they have a loser team, we have no pride in our team, we have pride in our field, and well, we used to have pride in the individuals on the team (Sutcliffe, Grace, Dawson, Eckersley, Santo, Aaron, Sandburg, Maddux, etc...). Hell, nowadays we only have pride in our ballpark. I think the mets fans with TARP Field should move in the same direction, forego pride in the team and just go for pride in the ballpark, I mean, shack burger at the game, simply genius.
 
Maybe they can come up with an Ovaltine like commercial for urine!

Man I miss the NYC monthly meet-up. All of this could have been discussed, a business plan for selling urine-tine worked out, and a smooth talking salesman in Tony found. Darn it!

Well when's your next trip then?

PS: I love how we thread jacked this one!
