Oh boy

 

Once Epstein is installed, the ''Hire Ryne Sandberg'' movement is bound to begin anew, and already may have begun. Smashing Pumpkins leader Billy Corgan, a noted Cubs fan, made a personal plea to Epstein Thursday on the "WGN Morning News."

 

"Please, please hire Ryne Sandberg," Corgan said. "White Sox Nation followed Ozzie all those years. I think Cubs Nation will follow 'Ryno.'"

 

 

The sad thing was I was pleasantly surprised, thinking he somehow knew wtf he was talking about when he said Epstein would bring a philosophical change to the Cubs that is much needed until he said that.

 

Guess he meant a philosophy of "winning."

 

Celebrity fans are for the most part [expletive] awful. Posnanski had a piece about the Cubs and mentioned Joe Mantegna playing up the woe is me the Cubs are cursed schtick. I want to headbutt him.

I can't blame the guy Diaz is so freaking hot.

I know it's from Levine but here's the latest from him:

ESPNChiCubs Bruce Levine

Source;Red Sox looking for the next Kevin Youkilis in Cub minor leagues as compensation. This may take a bit more time.

 

Clearly Boston hasn't done their homework on the Cubs system.

 

We don't have any Jewish prospects?

I lol'd

Fred, has this thread passed the output of the last 81 games yet?

 

Also, Bridesmaids was a very, very funny movie.

I would guess Candelario would be someone they would target, though I forget if we can even trade him. Either way, they can screw themselves.

Sounds like theo may take 1 or 2 from bosox f. office/medical staff. But that may affect compensation package (minor leaguers)

I just read through that 13 page thread from a few months back about how this site had gone downhill.

 

I wonder if this hiring will give the site a legitimate shot in the arm or if this interest will wane away.

 

 

I think I'm here for the long haul unless I'm given a reason to be disgusted with the direction of the team again (which I have a very hard time seeing).

[KingKongvs.Godzilla]

[expletive] Billy What'shisname. No Ryne Sandberg for manager.

No wonder he wants Sandberg. They have something in common.

Red Sox fans are such meatheads

 

"Grain of salt, but I heard it's basically, "Put your top prospects on the table, or we will keep 'special assistant' Theo in 2012."

 

 

Really? Try it, the Cubs have most of the leverage. The Red Sox will look foolish playing it this way

I think it's more [expletive] than gay.

[El Duderino]

billy's lyrics were really never his strong suit, even in the early days

[Omar]

My major league source is gay and I find this conversation highly offensive.

Last I heard was Machina. And while that was a better album than it got credit for, it was definitely trending towards gay.

 

"Raaaaaiiiiiinnnnn falls on everyone..."

 

C'mon. Rain is obviously code for semen. And everyone is just the guys.

 

"Stand inside your love"?

 

Buttsex.

 

The list goes on and on.
