  1. Too many walks. We get absolutely hammered when we walk people.
  2. Floyd is such a beating of a player. Hes a proto-typical Baker player.
  3. Murton has been mashing the ball in the gaps. I can't wait to see him more this year.
  4. Take the pick and draft an impact LB to replace Briggs, and groom that player into Urlacher when Urlacher retires.
  5. sarcasm? No I honestly think he's not bad. I'm not a huge fan of Brenly, I think Plesac's voice is TV friendly. BTW, nice DP turned by Riot.
  6. It's really at the point, where all Cubs fans get disappointed yet again, with his consistant injuries. Kerry Wood is so frustrating.
  7. Not enough speed on the basepaths, this is bad.
  8. Nothing personal, but I hate this type of thinking. If you are a paperboy and you are getting 40,000 and can feed your family just fine, but other paperboys are getting 100,000 for doing the same amount of work, then you are gonna want 100,000, because that's what you're worth. It's not about having "enough" money, it's about having what you deserve. Briggs is one of the top 2-3 OLBs in the game. Top players around the league have long-term guaranteed contracts, in which they are paid market value. Briggs doesn't have that. I don't blame him for being upset. Theres two ways to handle it. Act like a spoiled baby, or to be classy and go straight to management. If management isn't going to change their stance, then publicy roasting the fans, media, and organization certainly won't help the matter. I can't blame the Bears for using the tag. Its within the rules of the contract, and it makes Briggs play well next year for another contract. Now he could have been intelligent and attacked the use of the Franchise tag itself, instead of attacking the organization that has given him the chance to play football in the NFL. Either way, Briggs is acting like a selfish spoiled brat, his comments certainly reflect that spirit.
  9. Briggs really needs to shut up and play. The best sports athletes, never whined or complained about money, but went out and played. These new age athletes are all babies, and it's all about the money. If you work your ass off and play, you will be paid. Wether it's 10 million, or 5 million, that is plenty to pay your bills and feed your kids. It's amazing how spoiled these players have come to be, and we're partially to blame.
  10. I could be wrong, but Carlos has stated that he wants to be a Cub for the rest of his career. Jim Hendry failed on Carlos a year or two ago, when he SHOULD of offered him an extension of some sort for less money, instead of waiting until the final year of his contract. This guy is getting paid pennys compared to the other pitches of his caliber. Give him his money and end it.
  11. thats the best avatar ive seen in a REALLY long time hahahaha. The bears are in trouble for sure. The Ravens will be champs for sure.
  12. this signing will put em over the top for sure
  13. The Marquis signing was an obvious one, what with Hendry's recent appreciation for players with French (or French sounding) names: -Jason Dubois -Juan Pierre -Jacque Jones -Marquis Grissom -Jason Marquis Then why didn't he go after Mike Piazza, then? Although there were rumors Hendry was interested in Tony Graffanino. You insult us Italians
  14. Conine is just absolute garbage until he plays the Cubs
  15. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=As9T2Wz_SbDh2ObZoYytH48RvLYF?slug=ap-brewers-suppan&prov=ap&type=lgns
