    You think that the Cubs should continue to start him regardless of production? This early in the season? Of course.

    Ugh. Here we go. WSR has some new competition.
  3. Sammy Sofa
    Still relevant and necessary. Join me, o timid ones. Cease your trembling and take my hand. I will lead you to a better place.

    tl;dr
  5. Sammy Sofa
    But it's you, so of course fear wins.

    If you had told me that after more than one month of baseball that Pena, Aramis, Dunn, A-Gon and Carl Crawford would only have 5 home runs between them I would have punched you in your lying mouth. What the [expletive].

    It would be, since the Bulls are a much better team. If you honestly think the Hawks can and will win like this 3 more times, hey, have fun with that. It's ridiculous.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    No, let's look at it like Soul instead; with irrational fear.

    That bastard.

    Cub's 3 hole is OPSing .567. Only the 9 spot is hitting worse. Barrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfffff.

    All Quade knows is madness. Look at him.

    The Kershaw AB was hilarious. Between Kershaw reaching on a k because he knocked the wild pitch away with his bat as he dropped it to Baldy McBaby'sAss potty mouth I was rolling.

    Pretty much. The defense definitely could've tightened up, but even when they were in their face they were sinking a ton of monster shots.

    David Robinson's announcement was the worst, since it ended with Hakeem taking his soul I lol'ed.

    I really, really hope this game doesn't get people thinking the Bulls are in trouble this series. Not really but there is less margin for error now and that doesn't make me too confident when the Bulls have crapped the bed almost all playoffs. Less margin = the Hawks still have to win 3 more times. Not going to happen.

    Beast game by Johnson. Meh, Bulls still win it in 5 games.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    No idea. I thought I was pretty clear until davearm2 decided to respond to a single line out of context.

    The point I'm making is that the Ricketts haven't done anything to justify your "make money without having an elite team" comment. If the ticket prices and promotions turn you off, that's cool, but it's not indicative of ownership/organization not striving for an elite team. It's the opposite actually. I wasn't talking about just the Ricketts. I was talking about the business trends of the Cubs for a while. And yes, the Ricketts are most definitely trying their damndest to make money without an elite team right now. I have absolutely no idea why anyone would think otherwise. I also never said I think the Ricketts are going to stick to such an approach without trying to put together a better team. I made it abundantly clear in my previous posts in this thread that I understand the situation the Ricketts were buying in to and how it was going to take some time to turn things around. As I said I don't doubt they want an elite team, but it's going to take a bit of time and some luck until they have one. In the meantime they're going to have to look to make money without having a team like that.

    Gotta think the 3-5 spots are the big reason for this given how many times you've had Byrd and Pena manning either end and Aramis hitting but mostly seeing-eye singles.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    That wouldn't be preferred at all.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Didn't say they were. Also, you selectively picked one line to respond to and spun it into something I wasn't really talking about in that post. I was talking about how the team has largely catered to casual fans in terms of drawing people to Wrigley and getting them to spend their money, not fans like you'll mostly find here. The point was referring primarily to things like steadily increasing ticket prices and promotions and the like.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, somebody mentioned that and I couldn't find any evidence of it. I mentioned it once, but I was being sarcastic. Don't know if that's what you were referring to or not. It is. Green font, man.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    I feel sorry for anyone like that. Must be very frustrating and stressful.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Doesn't matter. I can't imagine having any desire to follow the team or watch any games if I'm always expecting the worst. To me there's a gigantic difference between not being surprised at what happens and expecting the worst.
