    Yeah, he has turned into the slow, white linebacker from Tecmo Super Bowl that nobody wants to control.

    Bend but don't break!

    Urlacher pinning him down. What was that all about?
  4. Irrelevant Dude
    Stafford outrunning Urlacher... so sad.
  5. Irrelevant Dude
    What a time to cut away to commercial.

    No replay? What happened?
  7. Irrelevant Dude
    Damn. McClellan is all over the field.

    RG Cutler.

    Lack of discipline by Detroit? Who woulda thunk it?

    He was in on 2 plays in a row. I can't remember that last time I've seen that.

    Maybe the Cubs can sign both Grace and Josh Hamilton and get a 2-for-1 deal on their chaperone? In all seriousness, even if you put Grace's legal trouble aside, I can't imagine that dropping him in the middle of Wrigleyville would be healthy for him.

    If Wood is truly interested in broadcasting and he wants to stay with the Cubs organization, this opportunity doesn't come around very often. Sure the radio job might open up next year, but I imagine that doesn't pay nearly as well as the TV side. In other words, if this is what he wants to do he should jump at the chance now instead of waiting around for a few years. I understand that he wants to spend time with his family, but he would still have 83 games in Chicago every year plus an entire offseason where he doesn't have to worry about getting in shape to pitch. Whether he would be a good analyst, I really don't know, but I would certainly be willing to give him a shot.

    Does this mean Michael Brenly is gone too?
  14. Irrelevant Dude
    A lot of fans I know are already calling for him, but I can't see it. He's a train wreck at this point. Personally I would enjoy Mark Grace in the booth, but that would be a potential PR nightmare.

    Great battle by Nunez there.

    Why are people ignoring the simple economics of reducing ticket prices? Theoretically a reduce in ticket prices should lead to an increase in attendance (of course we know there are a lot of other factors involved). Just because the Cubs are reducing ticket prices does not mean they will lose that same amount of revenue. If they were already selling out every game and decided to reduce ticket prices, that would be another story, but that is not the case when there is inventory available. I don't see how this reduction in prices is a bad sign. We know the Cubs are not going to compete in 2013 and we can also be pretty confident that once they start winning, ticket prices will go right back up.

    He doesn't look a day over 92.

    Apparently baseball is the new hockey. We are headed toward a World Series that could match 2 teams who tied for the ELEVENTH best regular season record. Let's get more playoff teams in Bud.

    A Cardinals fan friend of mine posted a trolling Facebook status asking whether Reds, Cubs or Nationals fans were most disappointed this morning. I don't know the guy who replied, but his reply was perfect: "Baseball fans." They just don't get that were all tired of the same crap over and over. And why did it have to be the two bums that got the big hits?Does anyone remember the year that Sandberg and Dunston got hurt and the Cubs had a middle infield of Paul Noce and Mike Brumley? I can't help but think if that had been the Cardinals, Noce and Brumley would have led the team to the playoffs.

    You forgot the part in between where they were granted an extra draft pick because they need it for competitive balance. They did? I thought they were one of the two "small market" teams that didn't. I thought they had got a pick in Round B, but I was wrong. That really doesn't change the point though that it is ridiculous for a team like the Cardinals to even be in the lottery for extra picks. If they can afford a $110 Million payroll, they certainly don't need any handouts.

    I think Moreland signed a 3-year deal, so he is still under contract for 2013. I hope the Cubs will explore their options for that role after the 2013 season.

    Wendell Kim sighting.
  24. Irrelevant Dude
    Ahead of Cespedes... Really poor decision.
  25. Irrelevant Dude
    Someone should give the Cardinals another free draft pick. They deserve it.
