  1. Get your hankies ready. I demand wailing and gnashing of teeth.
  2. Neifi Perez was actually a starting position player. Hill was just a crappy backup catcher.
  3. Ugh, this needs to be fixed. That's a crime given how good the original was.
  4. Cubs win and knock the White Sox out of first!
  5. Is Gene Gene the Dancing Machine umping behind home plate tonight?
  6. Look, Castro would have gotten the job done if the ball hadn't nailed the freakin' pitcher.
  7. Yes, I think Carlos Marmol is going to lead the Cubs to victory.
  8. Didn't see what happened. Did Reed make a nice play? He was playing pretty deep in RF in had to run a long way to catch a bloop pop by Konerko into shallow right.
  9. Heart of the lineup, so I can see why they'd make the decision.
  10. Santo never bugged me because he was just the color guy on the radio broadcast so I could enjoy how goofy he was because he was backing up a pro like Pat. Harry honestly ticked me off much as Hawk does for the Sox now; it's absurd that such a mess could be the PbP guy for the TV broadcast. Though to be fair to Harry he was a hell of a broadcaster before health issues and the drinking took their real toll. Unfortunately that was pretty much all before his time with the Cubs.
  11. My dislike mostly stemmed from my dad's dislike of him. Granted, my dad was young then, but still, he taught me well.
  12. Didn't Neifi Perez have a historically bad season (like, maybe the worst ever) as a Cub?
  13. I grew up listening to Stone in the 80s. Hearing him "root" against the Cubs is just wrong. Also, either his announcing ability has gone down hill or my memory is really bad. . . :-k While many here will disagree I always enjoyed Stoney when he was with us. As for his announcing ability going down hill, perhaps poor announcing ability is contagious. Even when I was younger I couldn't stand Harry and Stone. Stone just came across to me like he'd be the most hate-able baseball coach you could ever imagine having.
  14. Everything about this post is great.
  15. Uh, it isn't exactly easy to do. Damn lazy Latin Americans. Bravo.
  16. GETOUTOFMYTHREADORIWILLENDYOU
  17. It's insane how excited how I am over this. God, you better [expletive] make this happen.
  18. His slugging is so powerful it magically translates over to infinite defensive prowess at all positions!
  19. LaHair is slugging 167 points higher in June than Barney and 159 points higher YTD. OPSs' are 1.029 compared to .781 YTD against righties. Give LaHair the chance to add to his stats if you're trying to sell him (like they probably are) because Barney is someone I assume we'll hold onto. Anyway, I think the best decision to win the game and to increase LaHair's value was to let LaHair bat. You say unremarkable, I say bad. I know I'm nitpicking, either way, my point is that I hope he's gone when we start competing. Over the last month (4 weeks) their OPS is practically identical. Couple that with pulling Barney's defense from the game and I have zero problem with not using LaHair over Barney.
