Worst Time Ever

[NorthsideAvenger]

Let's hope Hendry doesn't decide what the Cubs need is a David Eckstein clone.

 

So winning a World Series in 2002 and 2006 isn't good enough? :twisted:

 

Why not just sign Craig Counsell? He was on the 97 and 01 WS champs teams. Maybe Counsell will be "Hendry's Top Target."

Shut.Up. I think Counsell can play 3B. We don't need to be giving anyone any ideas.

Counsell for 3b, Izturis for SS, and Theriot for 2b...

 

 

We'd be well on our way to a 2007 World Series.

You're at least safe from the Cardinal fans.

 

 

 

Do I attend the parade Sunday in cubs gear?

Only if you bring a gun.

We can go together....it'll be like the final sceen from Mr. and Mrs. Smith...you me, back to back, just firing in every direction we can ...

I copped this from somewhere (maybe even here), I keep it on my bulletin board but it's worth reposting.

 

"It's designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything is new again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as the chill rain comes, it stops, and leaves you to face the fall alone."

 

A little melodramatic I know.

[shnsajax]

Misery loves company ... I didn't want to read this thread but felt compelled to.

 

I always include Houston in the short list of archrivals. I hate that team almost as much as the Cards or Sox.

 

Same here. Oddly enough, I don't really have strong feelings against the other NL Central teams outside of the Cardinals and the Astros. I don't know know why, but seeing the Brewers, Pirates or Reds win it all wouldn't get to me as much as the other two.

 

The Cardinals are the Cardinals, and the Astros have been above average to great since the mid 1990s. The other 3 have been mostly bad for 20 years with a few exceptions (hey, kinda like us!) What I want to know is why fans of every team in the NL Central have this bitter hate for us for some reason.

 

I can't speak for the MidWest, but in Texas and in Houston the Cubs have always been liked and had a lot of support. Astros fans hate the Cards far more than any other team.

I think the reason that I not more upset about this is the following:

 

1) Da Bears

2) Da Bulls

3) Michigan Football, on their way to National Title?

What I want to know is why fans of every team in the NL Central have this bitter hate for us for some reason.

 

1. Lots of Cubs fans go to their parks and act like a-holes.

 

2. Unbearable smugness during the pre-injury Wood/ Prior era, when we all thought the Cubs would dominate the division for the rest of the decade.

Actually its because of all of the hot babes we pull down.

There wasn't a baseball fan alive that didn't think the Cubs would be dominating the NL for the rest of the decade in 2003.

 

And now I'm even more depressed.

[bhogg]

I am a Cub fan.

 

I DO NOT hate any team. I don't care who wins the World Series unless it is the Cubs playing in it.

 

I see no reason -- douchebag fans or not -- to despise another team.

boy, I hope not. If they win, then the NY Giants and NJ Devils might as well win championships too, just to complete the torture. Oh, and Duke can win the NCAA tourney.

Not if the mighty Ball State Cardinals have anything to say about it next week.....oh my goodness thats going to be bad. Has a football team ever won a game by more than 100 points?

Michigan's offense isn't that great. Plus Lloyd Carr just runs the ball when he plays physically overmatched teams. Probably will only be a 30 point win by scUM.
