Lance Berkman and ESPN and the Jackasses that work there!

What can I say for what he has done this month. The man was on fire and finally cooled down during the Cubs series. All the Blind Sheep were saying that Soriano was the hottest player in the league and he didn't even get 1 hit.... I see Berkman lighting it up again this week. It took ESPN (East Coast Sports Propaganda Network) forever to give the man some credit. He has to be the most underrated player in the game. Arod had a similar start last year, but with 5 less homers and a .350 BA and was talked about like he was goin to have a Babe-esque season. But as soon as Berkman starting getting some credit he starts to struggle.

Here is a few article ESPN started writing about Berkman (I suggest you check them out):

Jerry Crasnick-Berkman showing he's the king of swing

Brendan Roberts-Hit Parade: Will the real Lance Berkman stand up?

David Schoenfield-Will Berkman's month rank as one of best ever?

All I am waiting for now is for Peter Gammons to say when Berkman will be traded to the Red Sox. I am sure he will say by the AS break and it would be for Coco Crisp and Julio Lugo.....

Cubs Series Round # 2

After a pretty crappy series against the Texas Rangers, we took care of business at our own park. The series shut up all the fuckin Cubs fans all around the world talking shit about us and the rest of the NL. They were all calling for sweeps and saying there was NO WAY they would lose 2 out of 3 from the ASStros (about that nickname, how gay are Cubs fans at least they could come up with something original, fuckin dumbasses). Here is a link to all the shit talking going on during the series: ESPN Scoreboard Conversations. Yeah we lost the first game, but who fuckin cares we won the series. I would have liked a sweep non-the-less, but 2 out of 3 is fine by me and most Houston fans. We are 1.5 back of the Cubs as of today. We play the Phillies, while they start another fuckin series against the Pirates. They are all talkin about how good the Cubs are because they were beating up on a Pirates team-a summary of the quotes,"The Pirates are a good team and I wouldn't be surprised to see them finish with a .500 record because if they hadn't played us they would be over .500." Lets see we can play that game too. If we hadn't had lost 2 of 3 to the 1st place Marlins we would be tied with the Cubs. God they are fuckin DUMBASSES!!!!
But back to the series: We looked good after an OK first game. Sampson pitched like he wanted to stay in the rotation and he did a damn good job at that. Chacon finally got a decision after a record 9 straight games to start a season w/o one. And at least it was a W. Bourn finally started hitting yesterday, but the 3,4,5 is struggling compared to what they had been doin the last few weeks, except Lee with a clutch 3-run homer yesterday. Berkman, WTF, you went from over .400 to about .383 in one series. But you had a great month non-the-less and on your way to player of the month. Pence is coming around finally as he hit a game winning grand slam!!!
I really don't know what to do with Towles. I would almost rather see Ausmus playing instead of him and his .150 BA. At least Ausmus is batting over the Mendoza Line.
I suspect the Cubs fans will stop talkin shit for a week or so to us so they can make up a reason why they lost the series.

After Finals

Finally done with finals!!!!! Ill be able to post more now that finals are over, but back to school in 2 weeks, but Ill still be able to post just as much till finals again.
