My blood feels like lava running through my veins. So frustrated and disappointed. #Blackhawks 09:47:11 PM May 23, 2013 from Twitter for Android
@ChicagoSide It doesn't look like the Blackhawks believe in the Blackhawks... 09:03:37 PM May 23, 2013 from Twitter for Android in reply to ChicagoSide
My patience is running out, and there seems to be more excuses than Hawks have taken penalties. Make a play. Score a goal. Win a game. 08:59:18 PM May 23, 2013 from Twitter for Android
It'd be nice if the Hawks could generate the scoring chances Detroit does on their penalty kill, you know, while on the PP and all. 08:25:06 PM May 23, 2013 from Twitter for Android

Chicago Cubs History 1901

By bullpenbrian - January 25, 2010 - 1:15 am Leave a comment.

With a month left before pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training I’m taking a look back at Cubs yesteryear.

This first post begins in 1901, the first season of the American League as we know it today, and a time in which the Cubs were still two years away from changing its nickname from Orphans to Cubs.

Aside from a slew of fancy names: Cupid, Topsy, Cozy, Jock, Germany, Rube and Mal, the Cubs weren’t much for winning or large crowds at the West Side Park — they finished fifth in the league in attendance (205,071), slightly better than its (53-86-1) sixth place finish in the eight-team National League.
