  1. Just the opposite. I keep hoping that if enough people acknowledge that things are not going well, there might be some pressure on the front office to fix it. It's a long shot, I know. Yes, because you're an inconsequential nothing. Now shut up and watch this triumphant comeback victory.
  2. AAAAARRRRRGH. That second strike was your jam, Wellington.
  3. Appreciate it, Baker! Wonder if SSR stuck it out.
  4. I don't get the joke. That's exactly what I'm going to do. Right, because you're that particularly annoying strand of Cubs fans that finds bizarre ways to revel in baseball crappiness.
  5. Awwww, feeling a little sulky? Better hurry and update your sig! Then complain about the FO on 38 different sites!
  6. Kyle, stop being a shut-in freak; this is a board with a ton of people who actually live in Chicago. Yes, it's been noticeably cooler here this spring compared to last year, which had a lot of unusually warm/hot days early on. But blaming this only on cold weather isn't realistic.
  7. Using Camp in The Show is like begging for your opponent to start crushing doubles and home runs. Based on that alone I've dreaded him the entire time he's been with the Cubs, even when he was good.
  8. I get that. It's not like Hairston is killing it either. Guys, all I'm saying is it would hurt absolutely nothing to let him play vs a lefty or 2. I just wanna see if we have a guy that could maybe play every day down the road. I get that, but this far into his career it's unlikely he's a diamond in the rough. You want to try and get the other guys going so they can contribute, and sitting them isn't going to help that. Probably so, but I'd just like to see them take a chance. Like I said, it can't hurt anything. This team doesn't look like it's gonna be any better than last year, so I'm fine with rolling the dice a little. Well, even if it's a bust of a year you want to get guys like Hairston going so you can ideally trade them. Schierholtz will have plenty of value if he can continue to be serviceable in his half of the platoon.
  9. Maybe if Sappelt hurled himself into the wall head-first at full speed and possibly killed himself, but probably not.
  10. I get that. It's not like Hairston is killing it either. Guys, all I'm saying is it would hurt absolutely nothing to let him play vs a lefty or 2.

  11. Hairston would move from RF to CF in that situation. Do we really want Hairston in CF? As much of a brick [expletive]-house as he is I just assumed he could only man the corners passably at best.
  12. Yes, Sappelt stinks, but isn't he playing CF? I don't think we want Schierholtz manning that spot.
  13. Deep, man. Deep.
  14. Well, likely because he's not very good against lefties. Might as well see if the other side of the platoon can get hot and let Schierholtz keep mashing against righties since he's likely to not do any better.
  15. Gotta keep that lefty vs righty match up that so many people just love!!! Sappelt is garbage. I've seen enough of him. I don't care if he hits RH, LH, or with his feet. Platooning is a good idea. Platooning with Sappelt is not.
  16. Jerks, probably. Remember when people flipped out over the Spider-Man ads on the bases? That was funny. Make the money, dammit.
  17. Eh, some people get a boner over old timey organ music.
  18. And you find me incredibly hard to ignore. Ignoring things that bother you is not exactly your calling card. You're incredibly easy to ignore; it's simply far more fun to mock you.
  19. That's because you're some kind of weird, racist Asperger's monster.
  20. Hasn't misspelled Lillibridge's name once.
  21. Meh; I've found it pretty easy to ignore.
  22. Note how he has no problem spelling the white guy's weird name just fine.
