I want to see them all. The good and the ugly.

 

Excitement of Javy, KB, and Soler in the Minors.

 

The day Theo came over.

 

The guy who didnt know who Arrieta was till like May 2015.

 

The guys who wanted Ryno as manager.

 

Wasnt there rumors when Hendry was being fired that Cubs just might look at Epstein.. I want to see those posts.

 

I want to see Kyle tearing the plan to shreds.

 

I want to see Rizzo minor league updates. I want to see the Dempster trade saga and of course Shark bitching about the organization.

 

I was looking at the 2013 team, first inklings of success coming. Arrieta, Wood, Strop and Rondon actually were on the same staff as Shark, Garza and Carlos freaking Marmol. Just hilarious looking at that the other night. Some of the names on BR I dont even remember. Rizzo of course in that lineup. Amazing.

 

Post Videos and articles too.

 

One moment I keep thinking of as our arrival was a game ending double play against the evil Cardinals with Russell diving and the flip to Baez covering 2b. The two kids were so jacked and pumped. That play was symbolic and foreshadowing to me.

 

Im not watchin any Bears games, i got all winter to read and reminisce and celebrate!!!

As a long time lurker, I'd say this place peaked with thick onion gravy and hush puppies. Heck, that's probably true of the entire internet.

Every post from 2011 about how stupid anyone who called for a rebuild was being.

 

All the PTR posts, or inane posts from people indignant that the front office wasn't trying hard enough to only lose 85+ games in 2012-14 instead of 95+.

 

 

The Soriano photoshop thread was also pretty great.

Damn, why was Jersey being such a dildo in such a great thread?

 

It also got the Fred stamp of approval:

 

A thousand props to all the photoshop artists !!! I've been so busy that past few days I haven't had time to look at much on the board, and I'm just seeing all of this for the first time. Gave me such a belly laugh, all the patrons in this restaurant think I'm stark raving mad !! Gotta go now !!

I have a post in the running for best of all time. Blockbuster charged my credit card for late fees for movies that weren't late. Rather than shooting up the place, I just took my blockbuster membership card up to the front counter with a long line of people and I chopped that horsefeathers up with a pair of scissors. They are out of business now. You are welcome!

 

I love you all! :hello:

I'm less ashamed of anti-rebuild posts than I am the ones that insist Kyle Hendricks was a meaningless non-entity when acquired

M'fer Windermere

 

Edit: can someone link that thread? I used to read that thread every few months for a good laugh. That and the Senator Pelosi/Purdue and Indiana shouldn't be in the same Big Ten Division thread

PTR was and is hilarious and anyone who doesn't like it can go eat a pine cone. People who don't appreciate good hobo humor are the worst.

 

Thankfully Rizzo gave PTR the game ball so he can auction it off and keep this team running.

I wanted to make it after watching the rally but forgot. Luckily I was given another opportunity. But, really, there's never a wrong time for a PTR joke.

[expletive], I forgot he bizarrely tried to flip it and say people were making fun of him for being Baha'i instead of an idiot who doesn't understand cable, money, landlords, roommates, dressing himself and freezing food.

Fixed that for you.
