=D> :thumbsup: Let's teach these youngins' a thing or two!!! :wink: I love the 84' jerseys, and have been begging my wife to get me the exact one you posted. Those '84 jerseys are good only if worn with a Jose Cardenal-type 'fro or with a Carmen Fanzone-type 'stache. ________________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski

Well said. I absolutely agree about the old bear icon. _______________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Saw this on a south side message board: What do you think? Plausible? Desirable -- from a Cubs point of view? __________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Welcome to the forum, Sicks2k! You picked the right thread on which to make your first post. Babies have been conceived and born, empires have risen and fallen, and, yes, posters have made their first posts since this thread was first opened way back in, uh, '07. ___________________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

It took my brother a few years, but he became an ardent Broncos fan when he moved to Denver many years ago. He now prefers them to the Bears. That being said, there's a difference between your childhood team and a team adopted in adolescence or adulthood. I suspect most Cub fans have been so since early childhood -- when we were young, impressionable and naive -- and got home in time to see Ernie on WGN hit his ninth inning game-winning homers. If you do not become a true Cub fan until you are of legal age, you are either masochistic or madly in love with Wrigley Field. That being said, there's nothing better than being a Cub fan. (Thank you, sir. May I have another?) ________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

While the Brewers should be better for the experience the young kids got last year, the Cubs should get off to a faster start than they did last year. Lou knows the team and the team knows Lou. That should help by a few games, methinks. ________________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Well, if Anderson likes to party, it's probably not a good idea for him to play a lot of day games (with the Cubs) -- he'd play too many, ahem, night games. _________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

CUBS UNVEIL 2008 PRINT ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN
danonwaveland replied to Chris's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Yeah, that about sums it up. I don't dislike the Sox. It's their sophomoric fans that annoy me. Oh, and the new Cub ads. . . meh. _________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan -
"Cubs welcome Adolfo Soriano" hah-hah whatta buncha idiots. shouldabeen "Cubs welcome Adolfo Phillips" (the next Willie Mays, according to the Lip). ___________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Which would take longer: reading this entire thread or Steve Trachsel pitching one complete inning? _______________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

RIP Former Cub Don Cardwell
danonwaveland replied to vance_the_cubs_fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
That was quite a call by Brick. "Watch it!" No instant replay, limited cameras, and -- because Vince Lloyd was headed down to the field -- no one in the booth to "fill in." Actually, it was very enjoyable to watch. (Although I can't imagine watching Trachsel pitch without instant replay and other distractions to kill the hours between his pitches.) Also, the crowd noise was pretty loud. I wonder how many were there, in the ninth inning of the second game of a DH (double header, not designated hitter). My wife won one of those "no-hitter" balls at Wrigley last season -- the one with Hooton's, Pappas', and Cardwell's signatures. Kind of a nice memento, although I am sad that this gentleman from my childhood is now in his field of dreams; he'd better not be wearing a Mets uni up there. My son picked up a Johnny Podres authographed card last year. Unfortunately, his card is worth more now, too. ____________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan -
KW has got to have some more moves coming. He's got to move Konerko and/or Thome and, of course, Crede, to get some help for the mound and at leadoff. He's traded what was left of a thin minor league system for someone who, without any more moves, would "improve" the Sox to finish just under .500. Unless he makes some big moves -- and perhaps even if he does -- he's going to be lost miles behind the Indians, Tigers, et. al. And Sox Park will be empty again -- except for the Cubs series. Sounds pretty good to me; keeps my relatives on the south side quiet. :D ________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

So Taguchi
danonwaveland replied to HoopsCubs's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
I wouldn't mind Taguchi either, as long as he's wearing another team's uni. No Taguchi! ________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan -
So Taguchi

We don't need Taguchi. Yosh Kawano will be Fukudome's drinking buddy. _______________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan -
Hmmmmmm, let's see. The commish will handle each case individually. So, if Roberts goes to the Cubs, you don't possibly think that the Milwaukee-based commish would hand down a stiff suspension on him during the season, let's say, when the Cubs and Brewers are running 1-2 in the standings, do you? Naaaaaah... _________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Wow, if Bigbird says it's gonna happen, you know it's gonna happen. Holy cow! (No sarcasm intended -- "Bigbird" just sounded so funny.) __________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Think I'll head over to White Sox Interactive and read their moaning and groaning -- boys and girls, can you say schaudenfriede? Of course, probably more than half the posts will be whining about the Cubs, anyway. ______________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Coulda been worse. . . at least he didn't trade for Alomar and Everett TWICE! __________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Part of the fun/torture of the off-season, of course, is all the trade suggestions in the Transactions section. Two of the names frequently mentioned are Sean Gallagher and Sean Marshall. I think Marshall makes a pretty decent bottom-of-the-rotation starter. But what about Gallagher? There seems to be a lot of love for this guy. Could someone compare these two re: quality of stuff, upside, probability of attaining that upside, how they fit in with the present rotation, etc.? Thanks! ________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

Rumor read on another board: discussions between Balt. and StL: Rolen and a couple minor leaguers for Tejada. Salaries are about the same and both players want "out" of their respective situations. Probably just a rumor, but, any thoughts? ________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan

This could benefit the Cubs! With Cabrera, the Sox no longer need Uribe, but they do need some pitching. Let's see. . . Hill and Marshall for Uribe! The Sox get a couple of quality rotation arms and the Cubs fill a void by getting another middle infielder! _______________________________________________________________ Sandberg>Mazeroski>Morgan
