BEAT THE CUBS!!

[zzzmanwitz]

omg omg omg omg omg omg!

 

I can't wait for this season to start. GO CREW! We should have a fun ride this year.

 

Nice work woogie!

Weather for the game:

 

Showers and Thunderstorms (90% chance), heavy rain possible, severe weather chance towards evening

Gametime temp: 55 degrees, rising to 60

Winds: Blowing in from RF, 20-25 mph

 

The best chance of heavy rain is the afternoon/evening, so maybe they can get some of the game in before it rains.

Yikes! Welcome to March baseball up north!

[ELCABALLO45]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes baseball season is HERE! I am so excited! (Starts running around the room, screaming with his arms in the air) I can't wait! (Passes out)

[wOOgiE22]

I just have a gut feeling that this game is going to be on Tuesday. Hopefully the rain moves quickly through tomorrow or holds off until after the game on Monday! Opening Day is sooo close that waiting another day would suck!

Out here on the West Coast the game starts at 1130. I work until 1pm. I'm just going to be honest with you here. I'm telling my boss i have a doctor appointment at 11 and Nascarring it out of there.

 

Go Brewers.

[brewcrewkid14]

Yeah, I'm supposed to go to this game. Ugh, I'm not looking forward to missing two days of school for the game, but I guess that's what getting tickets in December warrants.

 

Let's hope it passes over, but I'm doubtful.

[diesmitty]

Cubs fan here. I know, you all hate me. Just wanted to wish you guys luck this year. I honestly think the Brewers are better than the Cubs and as the teams stand today, the Brewers will take the division. However, Jim Hendry never stands pat mid-season if the Cubs are in it. The wild card is whether he will make a good move or a bad move. Either way, it should be an exciting season. After the Bears and Bulls seasons, I need the Cubs to at least be competitive. So at least give us that http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif (and yes I realize offering the Bears futility as a case for pity is a poor decision)

 

Anyways, I'll be at the park Monday. From what I hear, there is no way it will be rained out. The Cubs are unveiling an Ernie Banks statue, and players like Willie Mays and Hank Aaron will be on hand for the ceremony. What I read is that the Cubs will do ANYTHING they can to get the game in so they don't have to move back the ceremony.

[brewjihad]

The pictures of Sheets and Zambrano in the Matchup section are awesome.

They should try cloud seeding like China is doing for the olympic opening ceremony...

[trwi7]

Remember the Family Guy episode where Brian and Quagmire were on "The Bachelorette" and Quagmire ended up getting a rose he had that goofy laugh and everything? That's what I'm going to be like right before first pitch.

[wOOgiE22]

The lineups are now posted at the top of the thread!

[BrewCrewForever]

Carlos Zambrano oh how I loath thee.

[SquirrelMaster]

Is FSN HD channel 531 on TW cable?

[sdcheezhd]

Looks like Sheets never walks the Cubs. But how can Lee's OBP against him be lower than his BA?

Sac fly or sac bunt. With Lee, most likely a sac fly.

Weather update:

 

Chance of rain reduced to 80% for Chicago, and there remains the chance that the heaviest rain could hold off until evening. So there is hope of getting this in!!

[splitterpfj]

Something about "reduced to 80%" just doesn't make me happy.

[brewcrewkid14]

I thought Hall was batting fifth? Why is he sixth in the lineup up there?

 

EDIT: I just saw the Brewers site, nevermind. Interesting though...

[sheetswannabe]

I heard they changed the weather outlook again! 79.4% chance of rain!

 

lets play!

[sheetswannabe]

If the game were to be played Tuesday..What time would it be? You think 4, or later? Ive got a class that I missed last week, and I cant miss again.

[ELCABALLO45]

is it Monday Yet?

[Schlitz001]

I cannot wait until Tuesday. This game better play out on Monday or I might go crazy. Go Brewers!!!

[Bert55]

Monday will be my Birthday and my birthday wish is that the Brewers have a 6 run first inning. Zambrano gives up homeruns to Prince and Braunie and his famous attitude shows up.

 

Good time was had by all.

 

Oh yah, BREWERS WIN.
