Cubs Baseball: It's contagious! Sorry.

I hear that EPatt has some yard work to do this afternoon...

so?!?!?!? ha ha, good point. Game threads have kept me in the top 10.

eleventy

:shock: Just trade me your best players/prospects and call it a year.

Thanks. The colors don't match that close but I appreciate the smudge effect on it. Maybe I can sell it to Tim. :lol:

Eric is going to have a big game BOOK IT!

EPATT!

Game Thread=Post Count Filler There, I said it.

My biggest issue is the profanity. If someone wants to get worked up that's cool, just get worked up responsibly. Am I concerned about Prior? Absolutely. Am I losing sleep over it yet? Not hardly.

I'd agree with that.

I went ahead and made this one with NSBB this morning using the template we were scratching on last night. Not a perfect match, but it doesn't look that bad for a rookie IMHO: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/DJAXXFAN/NSBBT206.jpg :lol:

In other words, all of your guys are really sucking this spring. :D Thanks for the update, Vance! :lol:

That's my frustration as well. There are some things to get concerned over in ST, but not to the point we've seen in the game threads.

It's not that people have a problem with people caring about ST games. With me it's more of when people get all doom and gloom and start blasting profanities. It's Spring Training. The pitchers will have limits. The fielders will have limits. There are players that need to see game action for evaluation. It's great to get excited about spring baseball but hardly anything worth affecting the health over.

Yeah, exactly. I keep trying to work with this program, I'm just new to it. I'm new to the Gimp program as well and it's quite a bit to learn.

I've been following the reports on Igawa and the recurring theme is how fast he works.

The guys on the Beckett board have done a good job making custon A & G cards but I have no clue as to what program they've used. I presume you're going to use something like a Piedmont font on the back of the card?

Not a great logo, but I did my fantasy baseball team logo :lol:

What do you have in mind? I would start by drawing some ideas and taking it from there. I designed the logo for my Ripken site and Jon was nice enough to create it for me: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/DJAXXFAN/ripkenintheminorssitelogo.jpg

Not all good news for the Dishmans with Furcal missing a pair of games with shoulder irritation. However, there is some good news to report: Jermaine Dye: News: White Sox OF Jermaine Dye had a three-run homer in the fourth inning of Sunday's game against the Cubs. On Saturday he hit first homer of the spring -- a solo shot off Diamondbacks pitcher D.J. Carrasco. Dye is now 3-for-9 with two homers, four RBI, two runs and one walk through four spring games. Rich Harden: News: A's SP Esteban Loaiza opened up Sunday's spring game against the Padres by pitching two scoreless innings, but his performance was overshadowed by that of Rich Harden's. He went on to allow just one hit in two innings of work, but more impressively struck out five batters.

I believe Igawa throws tomorrow. Considering where I got him in the draft (39th?) I'm excited about the possibilities.
