    Hmm, didn't know this.

    Sutcliffe was gushing about Dusty pitching out, too. The longer the national media perpetuates this crap, the longer we will have to put up with Dusty.

    I wonder if Barrett is still behind Yadier Molina, who he is batting about a hundred points better than.

    naw, then you just see the return of Enrique Wilson and a trade for Grissom That's why front office is included. The Cubs would need a new front office, presumably one not stupid enough to sign Enrique and Marquis.
  5. Andy
    The only way change will be made is if a bomb goes off in the Cubs clubhouse with only front office personnel, Neifi, Pierre and Bynum in it.

    I can't figure it out. I thought the Sox wanted to take fans from the Cubs, but they seem to take so much delight in people hating them that they continue to do ass-clown trailer park trash crap like this. It astounds me.

    Once again, Mr. .250 is batting ahead of Jacque Jones against a RHP. Am I missing something?

    There's plenty of time (and other posters who agree with you) to trash ND without bringing it into a Transactions thread.

    He had Randy Johnson and Curt Shilling. And a juiced Luis Gonzalez. And Mariano Riveria botching an easy comebacker DP. When I listen Brenly "stratigize" during the games, I am fairly confident that he would be a worse manager than Dusty. He wanted to bunt to first for five innings to see if Edmonds can play first. Brenly has said many stupid things in the year and a half or so as color man, but that wasn't one of them. He only kept saying that because the Cubs were too stupid to ever try. No that was a stupid idea. It made sense to me, especially since Edmonds was recently returning from an injury. *shrug*

    What were the "Your with me, Leather" rumors? And now it reads "incoherently managed by Dusty Baker" According to the rumors, Berman is infamous for an incident in Scottsdale during Spring Training. I'll let a friend of Deadspin explain the rest...

    This is all making me quite jealous, as the best game I've yet attended was a 5-4 loss to San Diego on 8/12/04 when Nomar hit the go-ahead homer in the 7th and everyone went crazy. Unfortunately it was also the game where Sammy went 0-5 with 4 K's and was booed out of the stadium as I sat in shock wondering how the hell we could turn on someone so quickly. 2nd best game was a walk off win against Milwaukee last year when Holly scored Burnitz to win it. Woo de freekin hoo.

    I sure didn't. I just assumed he'd do it all year, or at least till he left STL.
  13. Andy
    He's not a lefty, so we'll at least score 1 off him. I guarantee no more than 2 though, especially not when Dusty sits Walker and Murton (not that the latter is much good these days) for Neifi and Bynum. Putting Mabry at 1st over Nevin too I'm sure.
  14. Andy
    Dusty wasn't even going to PH Walker for Pierre. Even in the event that Dusty gets away with ignoring him the first 3 times around, Walker should PH for Pierre, and if it gets to extras you move Womack at 2B to CF and put Walker at 2B. But Dusty wasn't going to do that. It is absolutely mind boggling. There is NO WAY one person is this stupid.
  15. Andy
    Now says "allegedly managed by Baker" :lol:
  16. Andy
    I want Samardzija to play baseball. He won't get drafted by Carolina next year anyway, so his post-ND football career really wouldn't mean that much. That said, 8M? Ridiculous.
  17. Andy
    Cubs lose.
  18. Andy
    Burke: 5 times on base, 5 runs Pierre: 2 times on base, 0 runs Seriously, does Dusty need it written on the damn blackboard????
  19. Andy
    There is not a single player on that list that really gets me excited. It could be a long 2007 if Hendry doesn't pull off another salary-dump deal with a small-market team. :(

    My favorite Rusch story was at the Cubs/Brewers game I attended on 6/29/05 when Kerry Wood left the game after 6 with the Cubs up 2-1. It took Glendon two pitches into the 7th to give up a home run to Lyle Overbay and tie the game, giving Wood a no-decision.

    First Cubs game - 5/5/00. Sammy and EY each hit solo homers, but Pittsburgh won 4-2.

    All you hafta do to stop the Heat is let Wade go, he's gonna score, stop Shaq, and hope Antoine Walker makes his first three attempt of the night. If he makes the first one, he'll shoot all night, if he misses his first 3 or 4, he'll start passing them up. Mavs got this one. If they sweep I win ~$130, if they win in 5 i win ~$70. I got my "I am a Nowitzness" shirt in the mail the other day. Awesome. The Heat have been rather unspectacular all playoffs. I was surprised they got past even a deflated and unemotional Pistons team. The East is rather....meh. (Which means to me the Bulls could compete for the East title as soon as next year) I agree. The Bulls are one more solid bench player and a competent big man (Roy and Przybilla?) away from being one of the best in the East.

    Game 6 - in my room at home, not really grasping the enormity of what was going on. At the time I was just down that my team had failed to clinch a WS berth, not really realizing that a generation of fans were dying all over again watching the game. Nomar trade - Watched the game (Saturday game - Clement pitching with trade rumors swirling). Went to work. I'd stated previously that I wasn't willing to give up Clement to get Nomar (I'd still stand by that). Friends came in to see me and tell me that we'd gotten Nomar for Gonzo, Harris and F Beltran. I couldn't concentrate the rest of the evening.

    It's like this guy wants to be abused. What an ass.
