    OK. I'm just kind of paranoid with wthat's-his-face lurking around here with the Furcal/Zito crap; add that to the fact that I'm a Cards fan, and I know I'm probably a "suspect." Being a Cards fan doesn't open you up to any suspicion on this board, just a whole lot of unfunny cheap shots at your team for being lucky with crap players. :wink:

    Serious or sarcasm?

    Please get Wilkerson, Jim. Don't get Pierre unless he's the best available player.
  4. Andy
    It's going to be the Dodgers who are crippled when Furcal goes right back to his career norms from 2006-07.
  5. Andy
    The Dodgers might just accept that, pathetic as it is. I just don't think the Cubs are smart enough to offer him.

    I fume every time I hear about Walker possibly/probably being traded. we have one fee agent, ONE, over the 30 years I have followed baseball that took less money because he wanted to be a Cub. and he's a fine player, and exactly what the team needs. so we send him packing. Andre Dawson. And it wasn't like Walker walked away from large opportunities. As far as I recall, only Cleveland and the Cubs expressed interest in him after 2003. I believe there were at least a couple of other non-contending teams that would've offered him a starting job.

    This organization is a joke. Only we would have a 2.5 million player who hit .300, got on base at a .370 clip, hit 15 homers, was a decent fielder, and be trying to do everything we could to get rid of him.

    Len's clearly now posing as other people to get his fix of spreading false rumors about done deals.

    K-SGon. :wink: My source in Iceland has heard on ESPN Radio Iceland that the Tribune Company has purchased the Yankees from George Steinbrenner and subsequently traded ARod to the Cubs for Blanco and Patterson. I've got Brenly here and he says he will confirm. Also I talked to Neifi and while I didn't quite understand what he was saying he said the words "ARod" and "Cubs" so I assume he is clued in.

    Ok, but be careful. I hear that Kenny Williams will be trying to unload some of his overpriced doughnuts for some young, more promising ones. Don't fall for it.

    SEASON OVER That is the worst possible scenario for the MI right now.
  12. Andy
    The Cubs trade Dusty Baker and prospects for Dave Wannstedt. The Cubs win 40 games in 2006 under Wanny.

    NUN, have you ever considered the possibility that most of these athletes come from fairly well-to-do families? Also, what of parents who might buy their children cars as a congratulations gift or as a joke thanks for not making them pay for their college? I have also heard of families taking out loans based on the guaranteed future wealth of their child. I believe that is how Lebron got his hummer. Also worth noting that I read a ESPN article on Leinart saying he pretty much lived in a dump with 3 roommates, and drove some old POS car. I was about a year ago though, so it may have changed. I like Leinart (that hurt to say). I don't mind Leinart. It makes him a lot more tolerable to think about where the respective QBs might be 5 years from now.

    Yeah change it to "M4D throws final nail in own coffin".
  15. Andy
    I don't know if it would be quite as fun. A lot of the fun of this thread was volleying insults at M4D for his ludicrous "sources", a luxury we wouldn't have if the rumor creator wasn't actually taking his "information" seriously.

    I'm not a betting man but if I were I'd lay a lot of money on ND on that spread.
  18. Andy
    But then Len would be fired, and I don't think any of us want that. :shock:

    Before I say this, let me say that I want Cedeno starting over Neifi as much as anyone, and that I really like Ronny. However, Ronny will not be Lugo, in that he probably can't leadoff. He's a bit of a free swinger, so his OBP is highly reliant on his AVG. For the past year or so, his average has been obscenely high, but that's not likely to be maintainable on the ML level. Really, I was under the impression that we was very patient for a young guy making his first ML appearances... :?
  20. Andy
    I'd grant M4D a pardon if we got Zito, even though it's highly likely that trade would have nothing to do with the sources he reported.

    Ross: It's actually 6:00 tomorrow night our time. Chandler: Ok, listen, don't tell us what's gonna happen, though, because I like to be surprised.
  22. Andy
    I know that would be the determining factor for me if I was making a decision like that. Well, I have it from a reliable source. Rubby didn't go to bed yet? :wink:

    Can she play CF? Nah, she plays the role of Anna Benson. Except she's allowed in the clubhouse all the time. Keep morale up for Murton and Cedeno as Neifi and Mabry start in place of them. Except Brad Pitt already cheated on her so she is going to sleep with all the Cubs. This may alter their focus.
  25. Andy
    I agree...reason enough to keep M4D around and change his handle to Fredo Corleone.
