New GM/Cubs Future News Articles

[Guest]

the way the guy talked about not giving up starlin, i kind of thought he was at least a lurker here.

 

It's been a big topic of conversation on sports radio and random speculative articles...not just here.

Purple shirt guy's IP is in Chicago. He sent me a PM with a picture of him wearing a purple shirt. He's legit.

 

It's sad that I seriously can't even figure out just how much of this post is real.

Purple t-shirt guy is real to me... damn it!

 

Only that troll would publish that rubish. He probably thinks he's witty.

nobody reads those articles or listens to sports talk except for us.

Well....he does have an IP.

I hope purple shirt guy and Sullivan get an apology once this story is corroborated at the Epstein/Cubs press conference tomorrow.

[minnesotacubsfan]

yea, so purple, was your "research" really nsbb?

[RammyFanny]

Something tells me this is a peice of bad journalism since this news would deserve it's own article as opposed to being stuffed at the bottom of the purple shirt story, but:

Sources say the Red Sox have granted permission for the Cubs to speak to Epstein about their vacant general manager's job, though the Sox have refused to confirm that publicly.

It's going to be a few years before they even start to resemble a ML quality team again.

 

They were 71-91, what a [expletive] [expletive].

While we all wait for news on Theo and others, I will say that this Cubs GM search has been the stealthiest I've ever seen.

 

And now, let me speculate about the Cubs GM search.

Bleacher Nation is also reporting the Sox have given permission to interview Theo but I'm not sure if their report refers back to the one posted a few posts above.

When you're a big market, big money team, it's really not at all inconceivable that you can rebuild and be completive, in the .500 sense for next year and be a legit contender within 2-3 years.

So....permission was secretly given?

 

Which means.......purple fanta shirt guy was right?!? :thumbsup:

[Butterscup1679666578]

I'll believe whatever benefits us

Hey All:

 

So I am the guy in the purple t-shirt. It was actually a purple Fanta t-shirt.

 

I can tell you, it was most definitely Theo, and if you use this link, this is the blond woman he was with...

Once I saw the picture of her as well, I am 100% positive it was the two of them. I am not guaranteeing what he was here for (you all can decide that on this chat) or if he will be hired. But it was him.

 

Oh boy. IP check mods?

 

 

Don't the mods have to approve new members now for their posts to even show up?

I approved the new user before I even made the connection. Then I approved the post because it was awesome - real or fake.

 

Long live purple shirt guy. Sullivans still a douche. Had you "accidentally" spilled your extra hot beverage on him, you'd be our hero.

[Soul]

I hope you all realize if purple shirt guy was right, and Theo comes to Chicago....

 

 

....you aren't going to hear the end of it from Sullivan.

I professed my undying love for him a month ago.

I bet I won't hear a word from him.
