  1. So Vance, I'm curious about one question you never answered. If given the opportunity to replace Emmitt on the cowboys w/ Payton, Brown, Sanders, whoever, would you stick with Emmitt Smith?
  2. I LOVED Okoye and Barry Word. Good stuff. I'd kind of forgotten about them. Thanks for rekindling some memories.
  3. It's criminal that Pinkel is still coaching Mizzou. They've had quite a bit of talent the last few years and continue to play mediocre football. Can't say I'm upset about it, but I really don't understand how he wasn't fired.
  4. Would I? I'm up for trading just about anybody from this organization, and Barrett is not free from that list. If they could get a good young catcher, and they had a manager who could deal with having a young catcher, I'd be all for it. Who do you want for manager? Is there a place to look and see what types of guys are available and what they believe/theories are? I want a catcher that get it to second in 1.5 and hit 330/440. Is that too much to ask? :lol: No problem. Let me see what I got in back. Miguel Cabrera for catcher! :D I assume he meant OBP/SLG?
  5. Plenty of high quality baseball players have been acquired by trading away relievers. But it doesn't just have to be a 1 man deal. Throw him in with Walker, Jones or Pierre and the deal could be sweetened. Jon Garland/Matt Karchner leaps to mind.
  6. How exactly does one "showcase" Glendon Rusch?
  7. I think the only way they would do the deal is if they legitimately thought it gave them a shot at contention. They did almost beat the champs this year, Miami's underperformance not withstanding. I honestly don't think they'll trade Thomas under any circumstances. I think they acquired him to be the guy who defends LeBron for the next 15 years. Can thomas go out and effectively defend a "small", or are you talking about the Swiss guy (who is allegedly a good perimter defender)?
  8. I've always enjoyed watching the Cubs, even when it's June and they're fifteen games out. This year, though, the prospect of suffering through 88 more games is less appealing then drinking a glass of lighter fluid. Good luck with the rest of this season, Len. Because for me, the only good thing about Cubs baseball right now is that I can turn it off.
  9. No, they should have TRADED Hill, back when everyone in baseball was under the impression he was the real deal. (Wasn't he the most sought after Cub prospect this offseason?) Now they'll be doing their usual move of selling low. I'd rather see them give Hill one more shot to prove himself. (Though I have my doubts whether he'll ever be as good as Hendry seemed to think.)
  10. Why do you assume he doesn't hate and fear gays? Because he says so? If you use that word as an insult, it probably means you respect gays less on some level. Try and rationalize it, but the mere use of the word as an insult is homophobic.
  11. I just got sick to my stomach listening to Mike North.... You could have stopped right there.
  12. I think it's "trailer", not "trailor". Good grief. Did you double-check the paperwork from your lease just to be sure?
  13. Think how much easier iot will be to hate Buerhle when he signs a FA contract w/ StL
  14. No you aren't... 8-[ Nah, my girlfriend is a White Sox fan. :D Makes sense. Only a Cards fan or a Sox fan would be dumb enough to date one of you. :P Our children will be violent and smug. You're giving birth to George W Bush?
  15. I've been calling him the Marmot, which doesn't really make any sense, but it does give me the opportunity to say "marmot." And that's pretty awesome in my book.
  16. Sweet. A man-suit.
  17. And this is the last time Sean Casey will be mentioned in the same sentence with Lee and Pujols. Sean Casey Derrek Lee Albert Pujols. Grammatically speaking, that's not a sentence.
  18. I'll admit it; I like the Moonman.
  19. I'd like CubbieRich to weigh in on this if possible.
  20. I completely disagree. The Pujols age thing is just sour grapes.
  21. It was a stupid, bush league, beautiful, cathartic, classless, fantastic thing to do.
  22. if for no other reason, imagine the rants he'd be having by September. Dare I say it ? The man had FIRE and INTENSITY !! That man was a freaking artist with the f-bomb. Profanity has never been in better hands.
  23. Well, it's safe to say based on that it won't be the Cubs.
  24. if for no other reason, imagine the rants he'd be having by September.
