    Don't give him any ideas.

    Beltran? That is some Backtobanks-type isht right there.
  3. Sammy Sofa
    It's pretty obviously a language issue.
  4. Sammy Sofa
    Pretty much. You couple that with the generally uninspiring nature of the team as it stands and I don't see why anyone would be surprised that attendance would be down significantly for a cold Monday afternoon game against the Diamondbacks.

    What a weird article. Why center it around Millar when Millar himself says this: Why not make the headline around Soriano, who is also critical of Lou in the article, actually played under the guy for several seasons and is still on the Cubs?

    This may sound nitpicky but the BoSox moved Crawford down temporarily, hoping to get him to calm down and relax at the plate. It's not like they decided after 2 days that the guy they gave $140M actually isn't cut out for the role they had in mind for him. Conversely most folks here want Byrd moved down permanently. Of course. Because there are better hitters on the team.

    Maybe compared to Harry, otherwise he didn't have much besides "slider: low and away."
  8. Sammy Sofa
    It is?
  9. Sammy Sofa
    erik wishes he could go out on a limb.

    Only at night? Those flapjacks are available 24-7.

    Wait, no, I get it. Ryan Theriot said a bunch of irrational, awful things about the Cubs. Bros in hate 4 life.

    [expletive] it, I have a feeling Rollins is going to pull some kind of miracle out of his ass.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    Huh.

    If you don't want to reply then just go away, but I'm still going to point out how you inexplicably brought up only the Pirates' wins at Wrigley last year in response to a question where I clearly asked how many games did the Pirates win over the Cubs last season.

    That might not be a bad idea. I can see where they won't put the 3 hole pressure on Castro yet, but he will hit his way into that spot soon. No, he won't, but that wasn't the horrible part of the suggestion. It was batting Darwin and Byrd 1-2 on a team where Fukudome, Soto and Castro exist. But it's extremely unlikely that Castro will end up the Cubs' #3 hitter. He projects ideally to be an awesome #2.

    Ah, youth. The Cubs are no strangers to an empty Wrigley, especially when it's awful, awful weather on a Monday against a crappy team and the Cubs themselves aren't inspiring much this season. It's a return back to the 90's. There was a sizable jump after the 2003 NLCS appearance but I guess all the enthusiasm has gone away. Or much of the 80's and the 70's.

    Depends on how trollish they are and, yeah, whether or not people like them. People like Jake. People don't like fans of other teams who aren't like Jake. Besides, it would be pretty rude to give Jake the boot when the Cubs fans being complained about sound like trolls for other teams. Seriously, picture that "only the Cobs" garbage coming from someone named "CardsLover4Ever." That's probably the best way to explain why that [expletive] grates on so many people: it sounds like what someone trolling for another team would say trying to piss off Cubs fans.

    At least in Road victories... Pirates won 17 total road games last year. Five were in Wrigley. But he was predicting 2011, where he was being negative about the future outcome of this season. That's all I'm saying. I've proven my point. I'm done. Yeah, but your point was ass and can only be proven through madness. And I have no idea why you only focused on road games. Derwood was talking about how the Pirates won around 20% of their total victories last season against the Cubs.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, I don't pay attention to the Royals at all so I had never even heard of Kila Ka'aihue until today.

    Ugh, I unfortunately heard that interview on the way in to work this morning. That article leaves out the best stuff, namely that he thinks Darwin should be leading off and starting full time at 2B. Actually, he wants the Cubs' 1-3 to go Darwin/Byrd/Castro right now.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    I'm curious as to why you think a player who just turned 21 won't develop more power than he's displaying now.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    erik doesn't understand the difference of being critical based on reality and garbage like TT pointed out.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    How many times did the Pirates beat the Cubs last year? How many games did the Pirates win?
  25. Sammy Sofa
    He said this: "Excessive happiness" is included under game discussion because it brings joy. This is the law.
