Sammy hits #500
Congratulations to Sammy Sosa! I thought he was a fluke (in terms of power) a few years ago, glad I was wrong.
I'm sure Cubbie fans are grinning tonight. ![]() Todd |

It was a great game actually. Things started off bad as we were losing 7-0 at one point in the game but we slowly started to chip away at the lead. Eventually we tied it in the top of the 8th at 9 but the Reds ended up taking the game at 10-9.
As for Sammy, I'm extremely happy for him. Despite him being on the Cubs, he's always been optimistic and someone who anyone could see was genuinely happy. Couldn't happen to a better guy. Neuqua BTW- I still don't understand what the obsession with putting estes in the rotation is. So he's left-handed, great, he's still washed up. I would love to see what young Juan Cruz could do given another chance at the rotation.

I was saying the same thing last night. The guy is tearing it up in the pen now. He will be starting sometime in the future though. |

Sammy and Bonds both need to be tested for the Juice and if they pass, then maybe their home runs will mean something.

Don't we have enough other obvious reasons for home runs? I really do wish that the majors would have mandatory drug testing, but really, I seriously, seriously doubt either are on steroids :P However, as long as the majors won't drug test everyone, there will always be people out there who ignore the juiced balls, the smaller ballparks, and the diluted pitching due to excess expansion, and say OMG HE HIT 50 HOME RUNS HES ON ROIDS. |

Definitly juiced balls. I think baseball tried to get back some fans after the 'strike'. What better way than to chase the homerun record? ...then beat it.
