    It's a failed attempt to recapture that incredible Hank White magic.

    Closest I could come to Bears colors on a hockey uni. Need to lose the white, obviously. http://images.footballfanatics.com/FFImage/thumb.aspx?i=%2FproductImages%2F_843000%2Fff_843309_xl.jpg&w=400 Why? That the choices are only two colors doesn't make much sense; how many teams actually only use two colors/shades/tones/whatever?

    Weird to hear a Cubs fan say they don't hate the Mets but I guess that's the norm now. I can't really think of a reason for a Cubs fan in his 20's to hate the Mets. Are we supposed to hate the Mets because of '69? I guess; I mean, it's only been about 20 years since they stopped being divisional rivals. I was just "taught" to dislike the Mets as much as the Cardinals when I was a kid and it's always stuck.

    Happily rooted for the Patriots. I despise that fluke-y madness.

    Why not point out specifically how resting players more would have helped?
  6. Sammy Sofa
    No. Either you can play or you can't and you sit until the pain goes away on its own. Playing through the pain isn't going to make the PF itself "worse."

    So playing someone a fair amount of minutes helps a person get over plantar fasciitis? You don't even understand what plantar fasciitis is. Are your chances greater or not that it flares up if you overuse someone? Not really, no.

    So playing someone a fair amount of minutes helps a person get over plantar fasciitis? A person can play multiple games with PF and have little to no pain and then can have it just inexplicable kick in sitting around on an off-day. You either can play on it or not; sitting doesn't help it or make it "better."
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Come on, guys, you can totally avoid Deng's illness with rest. And everyone knows that sitting someone cures plantar fasciitis. Would Rose have been injured if he was on the bench? I REST MY CASE.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Again: wrong. At best resting players MIGHT have gotten you Hinrich.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    I will end you.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Ugh, no. The Knicks deserve nothing but misery, now and forever.

    sure, it was only like 2 or 3 years ago that he randomly got good. any reliever with a glimmer of promise can bounce around for a while. Oh, no I remember him having a couple good years, but then he didn't pitch in 2011 and I didn't recall ever seeing his name last year; lo and behold he logged a single inning for the Yankees.

    ' Stupid [expletive] were trying it in the bleachers last night. Yeah, what the [expletive]? I actually saw it pass behind home plate last night. Is this Tree's fault?
  15. Sammy Sofa
    awesome I'm not sure what's funnier, the player's reaction when he realizes the ball was caught, or the opposing team's reaction to the premature celebration. So much greatness, though he deserves credit for a truly outstanding bat flip.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    HE NEEDS PLAYING TIME. WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    I actually want him with Team USA. I'd rather him not be tentative at all when the real games start. Plus, I think that's a good way for him to measure his game against the best in the world, rather than preseason games that nobody cares about. I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but that's how I feel. Hell, I can't imagine why anyone who isn't a meatball wouldn't want him playing ASAP, even if it is goofy Team USA [expletive].
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Wait, Aardsma is still in baseball?
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Len & JD are the best; the riffing on Josh Outman's name was so dorkily awesome.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    I was actually thinking if he can keep up this pace until midseason, he'd be a perfect option to trade. With as much team control as he has left and as well as he's pitching (in traditional numbers), we could turn one limited upside arm into 2-3 pretty good (or maybe very good considering we have Theo) arms. I'm pretty skeptical given his incredible luck so far that he's any more than a decent back of the rotation arm (basically my opinion hasn't changed of him since the offseason) so I don't think dealing him would hurt the ML roster that much and, in the right deal, it would help bolster the minor leagues some. Well, you need to actually have a ML rotation. Sure, listen to offers and you get one that's too good to miss you should take it, but a decent back of the rotation of the arm can be too valuable to trade, especially when your pitching options are as slim as the Cubs' are right now.

    I'M NOT AT THE GAME; SORRY TREEFUS.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Agreed.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    PIXIE DU-....oh.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    TREE, I'MA BE THERE WATCHING YOU AND BLOWING KISSES AT RIZZO.

    What you call tripping over myself to make a point, I simply call backing up my point with information. It was 2011, and it wasn't meant to be a direct comparison. Since we were imagining going forward two years, I thought it'd be interesting to go back two years. Well that's certainly arbitrary. Let's look ahead 6 years and look back 6! How about 4? Maybe 3.8. I'm sure all of these things would mean things.
