  1. 1-3 spots left.
  2. While securing a new stadium is great news for the Marlins they still have to fill seats. It's still debatable that people will support this club on a daily basis and fill the stadium. Obviously, if the revenues from the stadium allows them to keep the young talent they have that will help, but I have my doubts about whether or not Miami will come out for the Marlins. Exactly. They've already won two championships and they still didn't sell out most of their games. Miami just isn't a baseball market. Perhaps a little up the road in Orlando?
  3. Part of me likes not having to go all the way down to Chicago if I want to see the Brewers play. It's nice going 45 minutes to Milwaukee instead.
  4. Yes, once the league fills, I will start setting a live draft time. And I'm "Captain Kickass" Also, there are four spots left. Anyone is still welcome to join.
  5. Dang, and I remember where I was too when I heard. I was in the bathrooom brushing my teeth with my knee all wrapped up from surgery the day before. You know, come to think of it I had knee surgery twice in 1998. The day after my first one Harry died, and the day after my second one Brant Brown dropped the ball in Milwaukee. I'm looking at another one this year. :(
  6. I guess a lot of my PM's didnt go through League ID 79541 password: cubswin
  7. :D True, but Z can't have any 5-start slumps like he had twice last season.
  8. Only 8 spots are spoken for. IM me if you're still interested.
  9. Come on, Z. Finally win 20 this year.
  10. Well, there's the smoking gun. Even the most hardcore Bonds defenders can't stick up for him this time. No HOF, and I doubt he'll ever have another plate appearance in light of these allegations.
  11. An edit: Due to new changing hours at work, the draft MAY be able to take place either this coming monday after 5 pm central, or this coming wednesday after 5 pm central. Once people start coming in, I'll start posting times I'm available, and then choosing the time in which is best for everyone. I very, very much doubt I'll be able to find a time that's great for everyone, so be forewarned.
  12. But when a chicken loses and you have to kill it, you at least have a delicious dinner.
  13. Ok, who's interested in this league again this year? I know I wasn't as active commishing as I should have been near the end of last year, but I had a death in the family and my mind was other places. Anyway, I've set this league up for several years now and it's always been pretty fun. However, a non-Cubs fan has won the league the last 2 years in a row (i think). Let's show this Tigers fan who the smartest fans in baseball really are! Anyone who is interested, please PM me. I'll make the league tonight, and start sending out invites. We probably won't draft until Feb 25th or 26th at the earliest, first week in March at the latest. Standard 5x5, live draft, 12-14 teams depending on the interest level I get.
  14. I've got that vid saved on my computer. I'll email it to ya. Why not put it on Youtube so we can all enjoy it?
  15. Sure looks like it. Maybe a little better. I'd take it all day. I'd take another Mark Grace in the lineup. Gracie was a hell of a hitter.
  16. Lofton will play better once it gets hot in the summer.
  17. That would be a terrible trade and Hendry should be fired on the spot if he even considers it.
  18. If Prior pitches a game against us this year similar to his 2nd half in 2003, I predict the board will explode.
  19. You think the earth would end right after the final out or would we have a night to celebrate? If we get to celebrate, it might actually be worth it. The earth would implode upon itself about 3 seconds after the final out was recorded.
  20. I think I'd feel a little uneasy if Hitler were on the team Steve Stone would never come back.
  21. I threw up in my pillowcase on freshman orientation thanks to mixing that and Vanilla Coke. Whiskey and coke kicked my ass harder than anything ever has. Three of those after having UV blue mixers (that was all I had in the house, honest!) and I was useless for the entire next day.
  22. The only way I part with Pie and Gallagher is if we get both Roberts and Bedard.
  23. Could we have matched that offer? If the team wasn't in limbo right now ownership-wise, do you think we could have been players?
  24. yep --Even if we go to camp with this team, I bet we'll add one or two new players before the start of the season. Yeah, crappy NRIs if/when someone gets hurt. --No. Hendry will make a trade. Hopefully, it wont be as bad as the Dontrelle Willis trade. Yeah that trade was horrible. Cueto, Jorgenson, and Taverez were awesome also. Matt Clement sucked ass. If Willis doesn't have his 2005 that's a push trade maybe slightly in the Cubs favor. Any trade that brings us Antonio Alfonseca and the 50 games he blew for us in his Cubs career is a bad one.
  25. For a while there it looked like neither team wanted to win it.
