Anybody hear excerpts from his post game press conference today?

I heard some of it on the score. OMG

Did we have an over/under going on how many games into the season. Whoever picked 9's the winner there.

Probably heard the same thing you did. The funny thing was he went from so positive (talking about the pen) to just exploding in no time flat. There was no buildup, it just happened.

did it come close to Lee Elia yet?

seriously though, why can't that team play consistant baseball? (besides consistantly losing) There's just no excuse for it

A reporter asks something like 'what's not working' and Lou blurts out 'WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK'S NOT WORKING??? YOU SAW THE DAMN GAME!'

This is going to be one fun season of Cub watching...win or lose!

I remember another manager last year blowing up early in the season of his teams play. They were a pretty bad team. Now if I can only remember what manager that was...

Oh yeah Jim Leyland. Not saying the Cubs will go on to do what the Tigers did, but don't count them out. Then again this is the cubs we are talking about.

Not even close. It was just that it seemed to come out of the blue.

I can't think of many managers that would be all that upbeat right after his putative 'ace' blew a 5-0 lead.

Soriano was having some trouble in CF and got picked off too.

I heard them talking about an OF'er misplaying a flyball - was that Soriano?

Supposedly (this is the score guys talking here) Soriano misplayed a ball in the top of the fifth. That hacked off Z and caused him to lose his composure. One of the reporters mentioned it earlier in the conference before Lou went bat-poop.

For being a sneering, fist pumping tough guy, Z sure is a delicate flower.
