It's the Andruw Jones "you've got to be kidding me that he got 17 first place votes" BandWGN. :wink:
-
Did you know that a deal to get Juan Pierre is practically imminent??? I'm so excited, Bruce Levine said we're about to get him so I am pumped! *note sarcasm* -
I preferred Andruw, but the fact that D-Lee wasn't even close to finishing 2nd shows you how much individual performace really means to this award.

MLB and Players Union reaches new steriod agreement.
Andy replied to erik316wttn's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
=D> =D> =D> =D> Bravo to MLB for finally getting this done. Finally a policy with some real teeth. -
A I-AA win doesn't count as a win towards bowl games. You need to have seven I-A wins on the 12-game schedule to be bowl-eligible. And I believe it would really kill the SOS.
-
I heard about that. Who was it that cancelled on them again?
-
This is terrible. Bulls winning the battle on the boards but a seven-foul differential and a whole lot of turnovers are keeping them down. Oh yeah and they're shooting 31 percent.
-
The refs are the key factor. The Bulls have 19 fouls to the Warriors' 12, which means they're basically blowing the whistle every time the Bulls are on defense.
-
Mitre and Wellemeyer I want gone anyway but I think Rich Hill deserves another look before we ship him off somewhere, especially for a one year rental of a usually unremarkable player.
-
Jenks is around 4 years younger and has much better stuff. Working in MacDougal's favor is the fact that he hasn't lit his arm on fire. I laughed at that. Can't go wrong by playing the "Jenks lights his arm on fire" laughs. :lol:

No, not really Not a very good memory eh? He didn't appear in the one series vs. the white sox when they played in Chicago. Claimed his foot hurt and asked to be put on the DL. And was so dedicated to the charade that he stayed on the DL for a full month after the White Sox series. you just have a bad memory when it comes to things that never happened. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't Sammy diagnosed with a Staff Infection on his foot? I'm pretty sure he was. I know Sox fans like to think they're so tough that Sammy was scared of their booing, but it was a serious injury. Sammy's feet are terrible...
-
Ouch. What happened to Mr. Quin? :P
-
I think one or both of the last two answers are EY. I'm not even close to sure though. Yes on #2, no on #3. EY stole 54 bases in 2000. Ironically, I remember being very disappointed in EY's "lack" of speed in 2000. I didn't give him enough credit.
-
That's encouraging.

I don't like players with two 1st names as their 1st and last name. :) Jason Michaels is pretty darn close. Bingo... You were able to find the irony. My name is the same as well. My name is just like Jason Michaels, one extra letter away from being two first names. Kid in my class named Mike Ryan. Discuss. My ex-roommate's name is Eric Ryan. They should both change their last names.

He also wears his hat sideways and likes to rap. Once he gets here, if he says the words "wiggly feel" I hope he gets benched. :lol: :lol: :lol: Here's hoping Pierre can speak the language :P
-
It's very possible. Right now the Bulls are in last place in the division and are in the 7th spot in the East.
-
Huh? Wasn't this just a rumor or supposition? That is unless you and Todd are close... Well, Todd definitely asked not to be traded without consent (read it in a cubs.com interview earlier this year), and usually Hendry tries to maintain good working relationships with his players.
-
He made 3.7M last season. I thought I heard someone on this board toss around a 6M figure for his 06 salary but I can't confirm that.
-
You really don't respect Jim Bowden's intelligence if you think we're getting Wilkerson for Corey. Not that I'd complain! :P
-
Pierre isn't very good. I could easily see him having a .350 OBP year. As long as the Cubs don't give up too much I could see him being a nice stop gap. Not everyone on your team can be a superstar. That's a good point. I'm not a huge Pierre fan but if we don't give up too much for him, he'd still be a huge improvement over our CF production last year.

I've said about a hundred times that ND's schedule has been disappointing, but it isn't a joke, any more than most other teams' schedules. I've already posted this in another thread, but for every just plain bad team that ND has beaten, there's at least one that every other top team in the country has beaten. It's just that it's fashionable to trash ND no matter what so people gloss over the UL Monroes and the San Diego States on other teams' schedules and choose to trash ND for scheduling Washington and Pittsburgh.
