Real Madrid tied with Mallorca. They suck already. FC Barcelona won their game.

Watching the Yankees game and it's 2-1 over Chicago in the eighth inning.

Ted Lilly is placed on waivers despite pitching 5-0 with a 1.83 ERA. Maybe the Yankees can get Lilly and I can finally drool over him at home! A girl can dream, right?

Ted Lilly an All-Star

Haven't been giving Ted Lilly updates but he has pitched well enough this season to be the lone representative from the Cubs at the All-Star game. Congratulations, Ted Lilly.

Giants vs Steelers

The Giants are trailing. Oh wait, there is a safety and it's tied. Yay, maybe the Giants will win this game even though they haven't made a touchdown all game long.

No more Ted Lilly updates until next season. I'll be watching the Yankees from the new stadium.

Ted Lilly update

For the playoff rotation for Round 1 of the World Series is Dempster, Zambrano, Harden and then Lilly. I just read an article on why Lilly should be second. Not sure if I agree though since Lilly didn't do so well in the playoffs last year. I don't even know if the same manager was there so I don't know the thinking behind that.

Excited to see Ted Lilly at a Mets game next week.

I am tentatively starting a temp job at RBC Capital Markets on Wednesday. I hope there is no overtime on Thursday because I want to go to the Ted Lilly's Cubs-Mets game on Thursday. I may even get expensive seats so I can see him pitch. I hope the Cubs make it to the World Series.

Ted Lilly goes 15-9

Ted Lilly nearly followed Carlos Zambrano to make it back-to-back no-hitters for the Cubs against the Astros on Monday. He settled for a combined one-hitter, giving up a single to Mark Loretta with no outs in the seventh. Lilly struck out nine and walked one in seven innings, throwing 88 pitches, defeating the Astros 6-1, going to 15-9 for the season.

Ted Lilly wins his 14th of the season

Ted Lilly, why oh why are you sucking now?

It's 9-0 Cincinatti over the Cubs in the fifth inning and Ted Lilly started this game. That means he'll most likely go to 13-9. I guess 16 wins is no longer really achievable!

Ted Lilly goes to 13-8. I hope he gets to 16 wins! I can dream, can't I? I actually watched the last two innings. Of course it was on Fox. I missed the Ted Lilly pitching part.
