[SKIPPER 11]

Does anyone remember Mongo Steve McMichael? He got thrown out of the game after singing the stretch. He said that he was gonna hurt the umpire- Angel Hernandez- over the PA. Hernandez had just blown a call. It seemed like we were playing the Royals.

[ryno4ever]

My most memorable..... Ozzy.... ouch, one of the worst ever. Very embarrassing for the Cubs organization.

That was bad. Jeff Gordon, who I like, was really bad as well. One of my favorites was the Vetter guy. Pearl Jam???? idk He seemd like he really knew about baseball and the Cubs.

[Cubbies10]

My favorite was Vince Vaughn

[SKIPPER 11]

How was Romo- I didnt see it.

[diehardnorthsider]

Bea Arthur did the stretch? how did I miss that one. I am a HUGE Golden Girls fan!!!

[VanMan]

Oh, you have to add one appearance for William Peterson of "CSI:", as he was tonight's guest conductor. Oh, and could you remove the "Iowa" next to Steve Alford? We Hawkeye fans want to forget about him after he almost destroyed the basketball program prior to bolting for New Mexico.

I remember watching this game. Might be the best finish in Cub history. Here is the youtube video.
