there's gunfire !!

 

 

(ok maybe it's fireworks)

 

I heard it too. :roll:

 

I'm DISGUSTED! My brother is a Sox fan and I will never hear the end of this...

 

The Cubs are the last on the drought meter. Maybe this will light a fire under Hendry to make some impact moves.

That's my plan for my Sox fan friends.

I hope the Tribune is watching, and I hope it hurts like hell.

 

I hope Jim Hendry is watching, and I hope he's pissed. I hope Andy MacPhail is on the phone right friggin now to the Tribune asking for cash. And then I hope he and Jim use it wisely. I hope they're exploring every avenue there is to improve the on-field product for next year.

 

I hope Dusty is watching, too. I don't know if he's smart enough to comprehend what he is seeing, but I hope he's watching nonetheless.

 

Knowing this organization, something like this will motivate them. However, they'll probably throw a buttload of money at a few B and C level free agents, expect them to be saviors, and then crucify them when things don't work out.

 

Or, they'll probably think they're "on the right track" and keep the same course of action, which means we'll likely see Macias, Neifi, Dusty, et al here for the foreseeable future.

 

And somehow they'll find a way to blame Sammy.

 

A Cubs World Series win next year would make the Sox win an afterthought, however they won't win. Why? They're the Cubs. Losing is what they do.

Dusty on the playoffs this year:(I'm not making this up, it's in ESPN the Magazine)

 

I got no one to root for. I sure as heck ain't rootin' for the White Sox or Cardinals. But maybe Atlanta, since they've won all those divisions but only one championship. The Angels just won it, against me, so forget them. Anyway, fishing season starts in November. That's my time.

 

That's it, word for word, even down to the apostrophe in rootin'.

Dusty's words actually made me smile. At least he gave an answer straight from the hip (for a change) instead of some BS thing like I'm rooting for my pal Ozzie. :evil:

Well fishing started for me in September and I like the Angels but other than that I agree with Dusty.

 

Also, I wonder how much this bothers Baker that the other Chicago won this first...it has to stick in his crawl.

I'd take a $10 million cut to the payroll if it meant a philosophical change and a new coaching staff.

 

What's the saying? Don't go grocery shopping while you're hungry? Anything reactionary that this organization would to do (which isn't going to happen) probably wouldn't be good.

I agree.

 

Anything reactionary would be an offseason geared towards small ball acquisitions.
