Agreed. He's always one of the first guys on this forum to start crap with other posters if they don't agree with his point of view.

Been saying this for years. The dude is a cancer.

 

Anyway, back on track of the Theo drama.

[UMFan83]

He also threw out that Boston could make a case for tampering, given the exquisite timing of Ricketts secretly firing Hendry. FWIW.

 

Not following that.

 

that definitely doesn't make any sense. They are just jealous that their baseball team has as many leaks as the titanic, while the Cubs are stealthy.

 

Or they could have very good reason to state their claim. I doubt a team is just going to throw this out there without some kind of proof.

 

You'd be surprised what the Boston media would throw out there just to see if it stuck. This isn't the 1920's and you can no longer take everything the media says at face value. In fact, the general rule should be to not trust anything you hear in the media until multiple sources confirm it.

 

And besides, what he said didn't even make sense. What does ricketts firing Hendry in July and asking him to work through mid-august have anything to do with tampering? Do you think he was having Jimbo call Theo about a trade and then slipping in a 'hey, btw...if my position was ever open, do you think you'd ever be willing to work for the Cubs? No no totally just wondering"

But there has to be something to it. Right? Why would it even be mentioned?

What the what?

[YearofDaCubs]

Latest now is the Red Sox want only prospects in return for Theor. I think Lucchino is playing games to frustrate the Cubs to get exactly what he wants out of the deal. I've heard recently Lucchino has done that in the past and there's probably some truth to that.

He went off on how there's "usually" tampering in cases like this and the timing of Hendry's dismissal vis-a-vis Theo's availability was suspicious. Mully and Hanley were completely oblivious and didn't follow up with him on it.

 

To be clear, this was some dude with the Boston Globe, not a team rep or anything like that. And yeah, sounds like a load of BS.

This probably belongs in rants, but good freaking christ is that song distasteful. Catchy? Yes. But I'm sorry that I can't feel comfortable enjoying a pop tune about a random shooting massacre.

Dunno a weak attempt from someone in the Boston org to scare the Cubs into giving them more...who the heck knows. Either that or he is literally just throwing that out there because it sounds good. I honestly don't understand what the motives are for a lot of what the media does. I am very jaded after the 2010 NBA FA drama.

I feel whatever the media reported back then was taken as complete fact. Didn't the Spanish-American war start due to a bunch of lies posted in newspapers?
