Since when did Vance become a mod? That's unexpected.

 

Watch out for the ban hammer. He's still waiting for an opportunity to go Thor on someone's ... you know what.

 

 

Eh, I'm really not looking forward to using it.

I hate Johnson batting third versus a righty.

[Sammy Sofa]

Wait, wait, wait...Johnson can't be hitting 3rd.

 

That's just stupid.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I hate Johnson batting third versus a righty.

 

Will he really be any worse than anyone else? I know its an idiotic move, but who really cares at this point.

[manbearcub]

really lou? THAT is your solution?

[BigSlick]

That is quite possibly teh worst move he could have made

 

2 days ago Fukudome had 3 walks and a hit

 

He's a lefty so it makes no sense to bench him against a righty...it boggles the mind

 

the only way to make sense of it is to consider that Lou has hated Fukudome for quite some time and has a bizarre fascination with Reed Johnson

 

Welp, time for us to get shut out again

[Little Slide Rooter]

When Lou rests a player, he likes to insert his replacement in the lineup slot the regular would be in. Hes not necessarily giving Reed that vote of confiedence, he just doesnt want to re arange the lineup for him. I dont blame him.

Yeah but Reed Johnson is gonna ground out three times and pop up to center once in the three hole

 

So yeah I do blame him

[BigSlick]

I forgot that Lou wanted to give Fukudome more rest this year and now it makes more sense

 

but Johnson in the three hole

 

For chrissakes

[DiamondMind]

It does seem like an overreaction to ban somebody for posting anime in their own game thread (and only in the first post)

 

Yea, mods are being pretty anal retentive imo. With the way the Cubs are playing lately, can't we all lighten up a bit?

Yup. Sounds like the rest of em.

[haubrich91]

Nice move, Lou. Rest Fukudome today against a righty when we face a lefty tomorrow...brilliant.
