    Demps's next 3 years will not be worth 30M. I love the guy but it's best to let him walk at the money he'll command.
  2. Andy
    He won't be here next year so that's not an issue. you're so sure that Hendry won't be duped into a 4 year deal based on this season? Not with Samardzija, Marshall and Rich Hill all possible replacements, I don't think.

    My favorite...ridiculous.

    Maybe we need to keep doubting him. I stopped doing that a while ago.

    Looks like just one man's opinion though. He doesn't cite any polls.

    This, so far, has been pretty much the greatest regular season series ever.

    On another note, it should be only another couple of weeks or so until I can officially post the week 1 thread. I can't wait for the season to start.

    Also, my attitude towards the Big 10 may be why Big 10 fans hate us (BTW, it bears repeating that that conference had its chance to have us and instead blackballed any of them from playing us), it doesn't explain everyone else in America.

    Why Big 10 people hate ND fans! For the Big East, that hate would only help us and has. That's because ND doesn't play any Big East teams (in football), so their "we're better than everyone and don't need you" attitude doesn't rub you the wrong way. The Big 10 has had a fairly symbiotic relationship with ND (Michigan, Purdue and Michigan St. mostly, with PSU having some history), yet fans like Andy constantly say "whatever, we don't even want to play you", etc. ND has been playing Big East teams for a while (Pitt? WVU around the turn of the century? Syracuse?), and the reason we dumped BC from the schedule is mainly because they ditched the Big East under cover of night. Kevin White, before he left Notre Dame (thank God), was working on getting 3 BE teams on the schedule every year (the same amount as our 'half the season' Big Ten schedule). And it's not that I don't appreciate the fact that the Big Ten provides our September schedule. I just dislike the conference and most of their fans for basically the exact reason they dislike us (think they're bigger than they are, especially Purdue and MSU). Not playing the Big Ten is not feasible anyway because we're contracted to UM until 2031 and MSU and Purdue basically in perpetuity.

    It worked last time, I guess. Decent lineup, and while I don't like seeing Soto sitting out more often than usual lately as a fan, I recognize that it's probably a smart idea.

    I love jersey shirts. They're more practical than jerseys, and for 20-25 bucks they're pretty decent value as it relates to players' Cubs careers. I've been buying them for four years and the only ones I've 'lost' are Barrett and Nomar (the latter not being so smart on my part). Currently I have Soto, DeRosa, Zambrano, Soriano, Lee and Ramirez shirts. You should get Soto or Z.

    There is no reason why anyone should be interested in trading for Kyle Lohse. He will revert to his horribleness as soon as he leaves St. Louis...it's a mortal lock.
  15. Andy
    Awesome http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/cubs/1081060,CST-SPT-cubnt30.article Haha, that's incredible.

    Carlos Zambrano has been so good at times this year that it's hard to believe he isn't really being talked about any more than usual. He's been kind of unbelievable. We waited years to see Z figure out that throwing fewer balls would mean a jump up in production, and the results were possibly even better than we could've hoped. I think he will win the Cy Young this season.

    I can't say anything bad about the big 10 because I just heard a rumor we might be going there. seriously? Just from some boosters with some knowledge about the school...a heck of a lot more than I have. The academic and sports seem to match up well and this might also be a go to heck (from Big 10 people) to ND from what I've heard. Boy, that would teach us, all right. no, having all big ten teams refuse to schedule ND would teach them, however Well, ND and Michigan are contracted to play until 2031, so that's out. In my opinion, if ND stopped playing the Big Ten, good riddance. how would you fill the other half of your schedule? You mean 3 games, and somehow I think there are other teams besides the 8 or 9 that currently play us yearly that wouldn't mind it too much. oh, im sure lots of teams wouldn't mind playing notre dame every year. can never use too many wins. I'm sure that's what the Sooners figured would happen when they came to the stadium in 1999 to face a crappy ND team that went 5-7 that year. Actually in all seriousness I think they're scheduled to play each other again in like 7 years or something. So that should be fun at least.

    Shark was up at the end of last inning He shouldn't pitch, there is no reason why Eyre can't finish this out but whatever. or marshall or someone who doesn't pitch much. if you're not gonna use back of the bullpen guys with a 6 run lead then what's the point of even having them on the team? Sigh...Lou, Lou, Lou...you are so dumb.
  20. Andy
    Seriously, get an apartment, you putz.

    Mass exodus of Brewers fans. Enjoy the series. :lol:
  22. Andy
    Zambrano was absolutely nails tonight. Great job. Now take him out, Lou.
  23. Andy
    2006. That was fun.

    I would wish it on Braun and about 7 Cardinals.
  25. Andy
    Ryan Braun misplaying fly balls NEVER happens, dude!
