Cubs Have No Heart!

Bear with me for a moment with my rambling because I'll probably say some of the craziest things ever heard. Such as combine the two Chicago Baseball teams and let Ozzie Guillen manage them.

The Colorado Rockies have no chance to win their division but don't tell them that. We're it not for the Dodgers being nearly eight games ahead of the second place team in the National League West that would be one of the hottest three team races for a division title in the National League. But the Cubs LET the Rockies win three of four from them in Colorado by playing as badly as they could play possibly as bad as they have played all season. The Rockies hit everything the Cubs pitchers lobbed at the plate. It didn't matter that Troy Tulowitzki nearly missed hitting a grandslam he still launched a two run homer in the first inning and hit for the cycle acounting for SEVEN runs by himself!

The Rockies early in the season made a managing change to former Cubs manager Jim Tracy. A managing change for this team wouldn't matter in the least bit. They let good old "in Dusty we trusty," Dusty Baker go because he was too laidback and didn't seem to discipline his players for firebrand "Sweet Lou," Lou Piniella. Lou looks just as lost as when he managed the Former Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Is there a chance he could quit before this season is over because these guys are just as heartless as his former team? The man looks lost in the dugout as no matter what moves he makes they backfire. They have the Phillies coming up next and if the series in Colorado is any indication it's going to be an ugly series. All I can say is bring on football!
