  1. I'd have to agree. However, I think Griffey would have toppled 800 if it wasn't for his injuries :\ Griffey joins Mantle as the greatest "should have been" players ever. Hmm...Jimmy Foxx has to be considered, doesn't he? The year Foxx hit 58 homers he had two homers rained out in a game. He carried a newspaper clipping around his whole life showing he had hit 60 in one year.
  2. I am not rooting for the cardinals.
  3. Hah we cannot get away with that right now. No, but maybe we can do it on something like Tuesday. Aramis should be back, and Ward should be back to be able to fill in at first. That would give Lee 2 straight days off (with the off day on Monday) and could really re-charge him. Sounds like a plan. He definitely needs one. He looks like he has nothing right now. Yeah we really have to wait though.

  5. that 3-0 pitch was right down the middle.
  6. dude, it is because you aren't there Seriously. Vance, what's the Cubs' record with you in attendance so far this year? 3- 10 for this year. :( Everybody has a bad season now and again, no? True Tell that to Albert Pujols.
  7. Vance has to be better than that guy was.
  8. What establishment in Iowa City are you headed out to? I'm actually out of Iowa City for the week, but if I were there, I would most certainly be heading to Vito's or Third Base. Third Base doing well downtown?
  9. What establishment in Iowa City are you headed out to? Go to the Q.
  10. Reno 911 looks funnier (stupider). "I just slipped in poop!!" I hear reno is funny. I can't see corner gas being anything but a sore.
  11. dude, it is because you aren't there Seriously. Vance, what's the Cubs' record with you in attendance so far this year? I think Fred said the Cubs were 1-9 with vance in attendance this year earlier in the thread. Vance, thanks for knocking the Cubs out of first place.
  12. I don't think we can complain, for half the year we had this guy called Jason Marquis that was lights out. Did you not see the playoffs last year? We can complain.
  13. Good for him. As long as he doesn't propel them to the pennant or anything. He's a Cardinal now. Now that he has made it back I hope he fails.
  14. Did this really happen? And is it really Mark, or is it Mike? Please be Mike. Mark....from Giants to Dodgers.. Darn, I really wanna see the Royals get rid of the walking 11 million dollar injury.

  17. That maybe, but it doesn't change the fact that in two years Theriot will be serving us french fries. while serving french fries, hopefully Theriot will explain the English language. That maybe. Or that may be. Up to the critical writer to decide... Ok. Didn't realize this is english class.
  18. Milwaukee has to be kicking themselves for letting us hang when we are this hurt.
  19. Yeah he should, but for some reason he is way more valuable as a hitter when he leads off. His career numbers show this. I don't know why, but they do. Yea I am not refuting that at all... but the fact is he's getting paid 136mil, there really is no reason why his numbers should be better. It's his attitude, he thinks he should leadoff so when he doesn't he stinks. But that's not good for the team so he needs to get over it. The best bet might be to get a legit name leadoff hitter. If we had a guy like Jose Reyes, a name it might be easier for him to handle. I doubt he would like to move for Ryan Theriot. Right or Wrong.
