  1. Speaking of that, here's one unnamed executive who believes that Dempster will sign this deal: The rumor from this article is that the Yankees are prepared to offer Burnett 5 years, 80 million. http://www.nypost.com/seven/11182008/sports/yankees/yankees_prepare_a_j__offer_139209.htm 16 million a year. Wow!
  2. Depends on the money and the years. It's a move that we had to make.
  3. Better yet, why was a new one started?
  4. You might as well just hand it over to the Ricketts family and be done with it.
  5. I was just going to post this. Interesting...
  6. Everybody hates NSBB. We're pretty full of ourselves. No its not that. We are just the biggest and most popular Cubs message board on the internet. Like all popular things, its cool to hate us. Yeah it is. There's about a half dozen posters on this board who are too full of themselves and give the forum a bad name. Yea, Meph is a real dick. What your language and don't attack other posters. You know better than that. It was supposed to be a joke. I guess the green font would've helped.

  8. I don't know where some of you guys find the stats you do!! And some of the one's you guys pull, I'm too dumb to understand ! #-o :-)) You're a Packers fan, it's expected.
  9. This trade to the Cubs is never going to happen. Move on folks.
  10. This quote in the article scares the Howry out of me. If Dempster somehow signs elsewhere the "contingency plan" had better be Derek Lowe, AJ Burnett, or get a deal done for Peavy at all costs. Signing Randy Johnson to a one year deal is not a contingency plan. No way we are going to outbid NY for Lowe or Burnett. I agree. But, assuming they get CC, they aren't going to be able to get every decent starter on the market. If they don't get CC, then yes, that makes Hendry's job a whole lot harder. I think they are going after CC and Burnett and/or Lowe. Don't forget they are getting 80 million off the books and a new stadium. They have a ton of cash to burn.

  12. What was lost in doing that? Respect. He basically said to every other GM out there that he can be jerked around for months and you won't lose him Like how Beane jerked him around over Harden? Or did Jim just bowl him over with his exorbitant offer that Beane had to say yes? And Beinfest's puppet in Florida? He's not the best GM out there, but I highly doubt he's not respected by players and other GM's.
  13. Well this whole thing is just stupid. Wood would've accepted a 1 year deal? Should've never made the trade and signed Wood. This team makes no sense.
  14. Loading up: Lowe, Burnett, and CC. Yanks aren't messing around.
  15. Plus, they are moving into a spanking new stadium. Nobody is going to outbid them on anyone this year.
  16. You can never have too many KW threads. Goodbye sweet prince! May god bless your arm.
  17. Perhaps we are just saving the money to make a run at Mark Prior?
  18. Why'd they give up on him after 1 year? Unless he's rubbing Ozzie and Kenny the wrong way.
