You have to believe at when Lou's head hit the pillow tonight he was thinking "The booth was sooooooooooooo much easier than this sh*t"

QFT! That is PERFECT!

Well he is really old, so maybe he just forgot and then all of a sudden he remembered.

Jose Lima is close to being as annoying as Zambrano, at least as far as personal antics go. But, Lima has a hot wife, and Zambrano has more success against the Cards, so Z takes the cake as far as annoying opponents.

As far as being nice off the field, didn't you know that Zambrano kicks puppies?

I was looking forward to Lou's first explosion of the season. He didn't disappoint.

I heard a soundbyte from the Cubs radio announcers on XM Radio yesterday, saying, "This is so embarassing." Ouch!

It was Friday the 13th, you know. I'm thinking that loss is a bad Ohman. :cool:

But let's face it... he's one hell of a pitcher.
I didn't see anyone say anything detrimental about him as a pitcher, Kyle. :?

Anyone find the audio yet? I wanted to play it for my husband.

I heard it replayed on the local radio station this morning and busted out laughing. "Now I'm starting to understand why this club loses so many games." :lol: =D>
