If you can't be the best, be the worst?

Is that this team's new slogan? I can see it now, on a WGN TV commercial. You do realize that we are about three games from being the worst team in all of baseball, and KC is playing pretty good right now, so it's lookin' good for us to succeed at failing. If we lose tonight they will be lowering that flag at Wrigley to the lowest spot. Yes, indeed ... we have played like the worst team in the NL all season, and now it can be official!

 

If you can't be the best, be the worst.

i'm all for it, let players have some fun, but don't get hung up on wins and losses...dusty's gone, has to be, but he still won't play the kids, which does disappoint me...but hey, if you can't make the playoffs, why not root for a higher draft pick?

[rynefan]

He has to play the kids now... he's got nothin' left... Nevin's gone, Neifi's gone, Walker's gone, the entire pitching staff is gone, etc.

Suggested slogan: Don't settle for terrible, try for absolutely rotten.

Say it loud and say it proud!

They could always bring back the slogan

 

Wrigley Field -- where baseball is meant to be played!

I liked the slogan Kokomocubsfan had in his signature back in the cubs.com days (he was an absolute jerk, but I did like that one signature): "Preventing fan rioting since 1908."

First pick in the draft, baby!

 

Of course, we'll end up taking a toolsy high school player that will end up being the next Brien Taylor.

just a little fuel for the worst team in baseball fire! i have been waiting all season for this nugget!

 

in april(actually 1 game into may) we were a solid 14-10...the rays were 10-14, royals a horrid 6-18... since those 24 games...the mighty cubs have cruised to 41-73...trailing both the rays at 45-70..and the royals at 46-70

 

think about that..we are 4 full games behind the royals......for what we pay wood,prior and niefi we could have their entire roster and we are 4 games worse over the last 4+ months

 

then add this just for "cubs" sake...we have not fired our manager and our gm got extended, only in this organization!
