    Went to Wrigley field for my 21st birthday and had a 40+ year old woman seated nearby hitting on me the entire game, trying to buy me alcohol.

    Now I'm 40+

    I don't know how I feel about that

    Now that I think of it, That was kinda f'd up!

    Went to WRIGLEY and Carlos Lee homered.
    Then we went to the wringer circle. It was a good day

    Because BBC is jamming down Espada’s throat to start Abreu.

    Before you think I’m being dirty minded, BBC stand for Bagwell, Biggio, and Crane LOL

    I was like, "Damn, the British are taking over our sports now"

    7th inning stretch may turn into "High tea time"

    We have 1 RBI from first base this season, I s**t you not....1.

    Give be Dubon, Cooper, Cabbage, Loperfido, Hensley, Caratini, anybody. Hell Bagwell himself might be more productive.

    I understand that as long as Abreu is on the roster he must play SOME

    But making a public statement that he needs time off, and then another one that Singleton is going to get more playing time - then starting Abreu?

    That's just flat clown show stuff.

    Dana Brown might be involved too. That would make it BBBC

    I figured Abreu would be starting vs. a lefty. He can’t hit though so there’s that.

    Espada, "Bregman! You're on clean up!"
    *Bregman swings his bat
    Espada, "No bruh, grab a mop, there's sunflower seeds everywhere!"

    What do you mean. The Astros learned their lesson by drafting Brady Aiken the next year... Oh wait!

    In 23 games we really have 1 rbi from 1st base.

    That’s absolutely insane man.
