Is LaRussa Northside bound?

[J.R.]

I don't know if I could get over LaRussa being on the Cubs. Only if he brings a crapload of pixie dust with him.

 

Actually now that I think about it, LaRussa and Hendry would be a perfect combo together. Hendry would drag in some garbage player because his new thing is picking up players who wear size 7 shoes or larger or something, and LaRussa and Duncan would turn said player into a superstar.

 

If we got LaRussa, I would hope this would be our team:

 

C - Humberto Quintero

1B - Aubrey Huff

2B - (so many choices here...) Kaz Matsui

SS - Orlando Cabrera

3B - Pedro Feliz

RF - Randy Winn

CF - Chris Young

LF - Chris Duncan (condition for signing LaRussa/Duncan)...has been taking pixie dust morning noon and night since his release

 

SPs: Brad Penny, John Smoltz, Livan Hernandez, Jon Garland, and Ryan Dempster

 

Then just find a way to dump the rest of the guys, and get ready for the World Series

 

I can see the Onion article now.

 

LaRussa charged with drug trafficking

 

Caught smuggling large amount of pixie dust across statelines

 

 

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

 

You really have a bad obsession with me. I can't post without you replying a pointless waste of time response. You don't like me. Get over it. Ignore my posts I don't care just stop making pointless posts that derail threads.

 

Really, what an MFer.

I have a hard time buying into this rumor. Where did it even originate? Seems like a lot of detail needs to be filled in. Like first of all why would LaRussa even be considering leaving the land of the pixies?

You are wound up way too tight IMO. And no I was not personally warned about anything. You had any number of people in that particular thread. Stop taking yourself so seriously. It is a message board.

 

Like I was saying, where exactly is this LaRussa stuff coming from?

Tell you what though, I won't mention Robbie again. I think you are a good guy, I just tease sometimes. It isn't meant to be anything personal.

If that's true then sorry for the over reaction. I've just grown sick of others constantly bringing up old comments for no real reason. If its just to joke around then I'm cool with it but some of them are done to piss me off. I've just gotten tired of not being able to post without someone bringing up Hummel, Windermere ... etc.

what's windermere? fill me in, bro.

It's all in fun dude. The Hummell thing is pretty funny. Don't take it personal.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who said that LaRussa is a dead lock to be managing the Cubs next season.

[javy knows my name]

Hahaha this makes me think of the post a year back or so about the rumor that Dunn was coming to the Cubs. Something about "I saw Adam Dunn at O'Hare and when I asked him about the Cubs, he punched me in the face."

 

IMB, was that you?

Don't worry. He does the same thing to me, too. He thinks he's funny. If you don't respond to him, he'll go away.

No, I'm a figment of your imagination.

this is untrue

Boycott IMB! until he pays da Bum's cable bill.

[Magdal]

IMB, was that you?

It has been established that the rumor came from a "what if" article in the Sun Times. So it just became a rumor, as things do.

 

But it is not as far fetched as it seems. His contract will be up and he WILL be fielding offers. He and Mozelic (sp?) are not buddies. Mo' traded away Dave's boy to stop LaRussa from starting the guy. And the same day the pitcher batting 8th thing was Kyboshed. Anyone in the know can see that's no coincedence.

 

My thinking is that IF the Cubs decide to let Lou go, they will make him a good offer. His ego will sorely tempt him.

That and we will have a new owner who if Lou is let go will be looking to make a big splash and hire the best available, at least I hope our new owner would be. There is no bigger than LaRussa.

[Magdal]

There is a revealing article at St.Louis Today.com/sports by joe Strouss on Dave Duncan. From the tone of it he will NOT be a Card coach next year. It's worth a read.

[TruffleShuffle]

we'd probably be so dumb that the best pitching coach in baseball would be on the market and we'd stay loyal to larry rothschild without looking into duncan first.

[mcgoobs]

This. I don't think I'd be able to watch games with LaRussa as manager knowing he's going to overthink and overplay late inning pitching/hitting matchup situations, more than one runner on base situations, guy on third with less than 2 out situations, etc.
