Is there a Wada-Orioles link or are you just referencing they getting bend out of shape about Arrieta-Strop on Friday?

[Guest]

Wada originally signed with the Orioles out of Japan, and blew out his arm before throwing a pitch for the MLB team.

According to cubs uniform history site they were our alternate roads from 94-96. I don't remember them though.

What was that huge OOH during the national anthem?

What was that huge OOH during the national anthem?

Probably something Orioles fans do

[Clem Fandango]

When I was a kid I had one of those, but it was like the screen printed logo on a button down jersey... it was weird, like a not-quite-authentic and it had no number on the back. I begged my grandma to take it to a place where they put patches on it and get Sosa's number on the back, but the best they could do is iron on felt numbers that were hand made. It looked like doo doo so I kept it blank.

 

I was a kid those jerseys never bothered me, as long as it said Cubs on it I was happy.

 

But yeah those aren't great.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I absolutely loved those jerseys...though I liked the gray road ones better than the blue.

[NOLA]

Len-And that's Kriss Kross with "Jump".

JD-I thought he sang "Sailing".

 

Well done JD.
