  1. "Boog" annoys me. People who refer to themselves by their nickname annoy me. A nickname is what someone else calls you - I'd almost prefer him to refer to himself in the 3rd person. That would be funny. I'm too old to change. I don't think most of my friends from college know my real name.
  2. What an odd/a dumb thing to say at the end of a terrible paragraph It kind of goes with the entire paragraph though. Creepy, stupid, and knuckle-dragging from beginning to end.
  3. A bunch of guys I never heard of before batting for the Cubs. But it's baseball on TV. I love it. I like Boog, but he's not Len. It's going to take awhile.
  4. That's some Dumbledore horsefeathers going on. The Horcrux was an unopened tequila bottle at 1:30 AM at Skin Cabaret in Scottsdale.
  5. Shelby Miller getting lit up.
  6. that's a quick bat.
  7. It may provide a relative benefit to the starters, but what about the relief corps? I do think pitching and defense concentration is a good plan given the offense. Bolster a weakness with a strength.
  8. Compound leg fractures. I just hope he can walk again.
  9. Brent is going wild on Twitter over Nico Hoerner’s ass and hips in bo pics. Yep, it’s spring training.
  10. I like him already
  11. 3. Luke Leto, SS, Portage Central HS (MI) - 45 Any chance this kid is still around when the Cubs pick? Portage Central was a big rival in high school.
  12. That is a great point.
  13. I like this signing simply because Williams seems like a cool dude on twitter.

    Somewhere about three weeks ago on a Washington Nationals board with the least terrible faction of National fans on the internet, someone made that exact post about Kyle.
  15. Giants pick Tommy Boy.
  16. Billions are already in their account and they won’t own the Cubs. 1point for me. The Cubs are a nightmare right now and are going to be for the foreseeable future. The Cubs have made the playoffs in 5 of the last 6 years with 3 NLCS appearances and one title. They’re likely going to be favored to win the division again, and if not favored, will have a decent chance. I’m sorry this has been so hard on you. Not if they trade Hendricks and Bryant. Don’t be ridiculous.
  17. You fantasy world sounds like a horsefeathering nightmare. Not to mention his fantasy world has put billions in the Ricketts pocket while leaving the organization in shambles. That’s a strange fantasy unless this is a Todd Ricketts account. Billions are already in their account and they won’t own the Cubs. 1point for me. The Cubs are a nightmare right now and are going to be for the foreseeable future.
  18. My fever dream know is that the Ricketts trade every one, piss off javy and Rizzo to the point that it becomes impossible for them not to say something and Wrigley in 3/4 empty and so is their overpriced hotel. They can’t make payments and have to sell everything. The MLB owners lose their minds and let Cuban buy the team and we start all over. My fantasy world is so, so much better than the real world.
  19. The epitome of class and grace. A hero not only on the baseball field but for civil rights. I cannot imagine how I would behave if I had to go through what he and the generation of Black players went through to get where they were. He was a giant among men.
  20. It's Kyle
  21. Yeah, Boozey McFakemustache and his bros didn't give a horsefeathers about this kind of stuff. i don't know. as frat broey as those guys may be, they are far from being idiots. i can't imagine theo would be cool with that type of horsefeathers going on and would just look the other way while something as egregious as a relatively high level employee sending a work contact dick pics is being talked about casually. this was only 4-5 years ago, not 15-20. maybe i'm going too fan boy on this but theo is far from stupid and is, at the very least, well aware of the fact that that would be extremely problematic. it would only be a matter of time before it became a big problem for him. that said, i'm sure some people knew. Theo and Jed seem to be, work hard play hard type of guys. All hires are a reflection of management, but I would have to think that they wouldn't tolerate... nevermind, they traded for Chapman and kept Russell. So yeah, I'm not giving them the benefit of the doubt.
  22. I was going to go with: Dick picks nix Mets top exec.
  23. He doesn't have a market because the Ricketts are the worst. Everyone knows they are unloading, so they have no leverage.
  24. The investments they've made in the area were not done by the Cubs, but a separate entity. They are using the Cubs to subsidize all their other ventures. You can not care about it, but it's what caused the trade. The Ricketts are acting like vulture capitalists right now with the Cubs. It matters a lot.
  25. The Ricketts have all the money they need to do whatever they want 365 days of the year, every year for the rest of their lives and those of their children and grandchildren. I know this is a bleed post but, the Ricketts family gave millions of dollars to re-elect Trump. I have no time for PTR posts.
