    http://m.mlb.com/video/v20079103/milchc-aramis-belts-a-walkoff-homer-for-the-cubs/?query=aramis+walk+off ETA: He's had... a lot http://m.mlb.com/video/search?query=aramis+walk+off THANK YOU now my complaint is that it's not in HD Wow, I did not expect to hear Len's voice on there...for some reason I always feel like he's "newer" than he is. I'm the opposite. Hearing Stone and Chip startles me and feels like 30 years ago. Same. It's a brief and best forgotten time.

    The way Javy swings at baseballs I'm almost convinced that he has some kind of blood vendetta against them.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    Studly.

    [expletive], I FORGOT ABOUT THE CANCER KIDS. Sorry, Rizzo. But they're still shunning him.

    The NBA is currently the least talented it's ever been. There are 0(!!) players from the 50 greatest players ever list playing today. Glad ur back to trolling me. I missed you! That's not trolling.

    I'm not saying they're shunning Tinyface...but they're probably shunning Tinyface.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    CONTRA.

    Speak for yourself, Mopey.

    Even weirder is how Aramis is giving a locker room interview afterwards...WITH A SHIRT ON.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    I have no idea; I can remember like 3 coaches from the last 10 years and he's one of them.

    Or Sinatro walking off to the side with a "oh, you crazy kids"-look on his face. Everything/everyone in that pic could not be more perfect.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    [expletive], that picture brings me so much joy.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    I still maybe think that me not going to church like I promised to all of the gods if Aramis hit it out kinda fucked over the Cubs ever since.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Name one person you're talking about.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    I thought we were talking in the context of what was expected of guys like Patterson and Pie, not just technically "making it." I agree to a point in that I think if the current FO had their hands on Patterson he probably would have had a better shot of being a useful everyday player, but I still don't think he would have hit the levels everyone was hoping/expecting of him. And was is this "he was with Dusty when his career ended?" He played another 239 games after that in majors, including a decent year in a part time role for the Orioles in 2010.

    Part of me thinks Patterson was fine until Dusty decided to try to transform him into a slappy leadoff man. I can't stand Dusty, but if that's all it took to break Patterson then he was never going to be what we hoped he would be. But what he was in 2003 and 2004 (and 2006) was plenty good. Right, and that he couldn't maintain that success shows to me it wasn't meant to be. He got plenty of chances and showed flashes and had success post-Dusty but still couldn't stick. Are we really blaming all of that on Dusty?

    That doesn't fit with the fecal metaphor.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, someone with Trout's talent still would have broken through. I don't think guys like Pie or Patterson would have made it even with the current FO in place.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    This guy is totally hccf's son or something.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Is this a haiku?

    Vogelbach is purposefully being treated as a trade chip that's a cut below, no? And while he's not some trump card, he's also got an OPS 90 points above the league average, so he's not tanking at Daytona either. there are lots of guys that aren't "tanking" the level they're at. doesn't mean anyone wants to trade for them. he needs to be a 30 hr guy to have value. he's shown no ability to do that. Not a lot of guys at his level have approaches and discipline that he has. The power will come, people say that about a ton of guys who have hit way fewer home runs in the minors than him. Yeah, but the power needs to come for him to be truly valuable. It's all well and good to think it will come, but if you're looking to use him as a valuable trading chip he needs to actually start showing that power again consistently.
