I didn't think you were serious.

[killthegoat06]

Obviously not many memories. Should put in an image of him in a Marlins Jersey. :lol:

[A New Era]

I gave you the appropriate rating.

 

Hey he did have a couple of really clutch hits against the cards last year didn't he?

[Elrhino]

Good lord, an awfull lot of energy and time wasted directing venom towards a guy who put up a 107 OPS+ in his only full year as a Cub. Its not like he was Jeff Blauser bad (or Corey Patterson). Edited June 26, 2007 by Elrhino

[badger1679666666]

Jacque Jones was doomed from the start with the Cubs because of the contract given to him. I think Jacque is a really nice guy and wasn't terrible in his only full year with the Cubs. He doesn't deserve the racist comments and random booing that Cubs fans gave him. He will always have a negative impression of this city and Cubs fans because of it. Oh well.

[anabiono]

i actually feel really pretty bad for jones right now...poor dude...he is getting yanked around like a yo-yo

[Drew Doughty]

Still Funny :lol:

 

Still tasteless and worthless.

 

tasteless? really? did jacque jones have his life tragically taken or something? I mean, I haven't seen him since last night when he was used a batter too late, but I didn't know he died.

A) no one deserves the racist comments that may have been made.

B) the contract wasn't that bad, if he actually produced this season like he did last year, no one would have said anything aside from "trade him while he's high"

C) being little-league bad for a large portion of your contract will get the fans mad at you, true.

He's only been "little-league bad" for half a year. As was pointed out earlier, he was good for the full 2006 season. UMFan is correct, Jacque was doomed from the start.

He may have recovered from a slow start offensively, but he was little league bad in the field and on the basepaths last year. Still wasn't worth his contract. By the time he started hitting the Cubs were out of it, this year is what can be expected.

He actually sucked until sometime in May, but I get your point. His overall numbers wound up being pretty good for '06. Little chance of that happening for '07, since we're pretty much done with the first half and he's stunk the entire time.

I hope none of you were the same ones ripping the Wrigley fans as "classless" for booing Corey.

How is that classless?

New York fans boo A-Rod probably who is going to become the greatest player of all time.

Not booing him as a person, but you can boo his performance.

[cubfan1955]

Not booing him as a person, but you can boo his performance.

Booing has been shown to not improve player performance. See Patterson, Corey and Hawkins, LaTroy.

We booed them out of town at least.
