Cubs sign Ojeda and Looper

AUGIE-AUGIE-AUGIE!!! -
That's a hell of a prop.
-
I know we're not. I just don't see why it's a big deal. You're talking about sports fan decisions that are generally made by kids under the age of 10. They don't think in terms of "I can't root for the Packers, they're rivals to the Bears, and these other teams I picked are in Chicago!!!!". It's odd.
-
I just assumed he was white with a name that awful and snobby.
-
Andy, we're not talking about your fandom.
-
Not everybody is close enough to a big city to root for all its teams, not everybody stays in the same spot throughout their childhood, and not everybody has parents who have sports allegiances to pass down. Weird things happen when young kids basically have to pick their own teams. Nobody cares about them. If people are weirdos and root for teams all over the place, who the [expletive] cares. That said, even that makes more sense than rooting for all of your teams from one city and then having one team stand out from the rest, AND that team is such a hated rival of the city all of your other teams play in. Again, think of someone rooting for NYC and Philly teams. It's madness, and quite possibly some intriguing form of schizophrenia.
-
Flames, if you met someone who was a fan of the Rangers/Knicks/Giants...and the Phillies, would you think it was odd?
-
*Boner*
-
I forget that not everyone blocks images. It's still really weird.
-
It's science.
-
"Bullies" = oh my God, my dumbass argument was crushed so many different ways and I'm still dazed and bloodied from the complete domination.
-
And a Hawks fan. Not exactly breaking news. This is getting uncomfortably weird.
-
Wait, so you're a Packers fan, a Cubs fan...AND a Bulls fan? You must be carefully studied in the wild. My mind is blown.
-
Uh, lanky? That's not a good thing. If anything it's too close to one of the problems that we have the WR the Bears have now, in that they're too small (both in height and build, as well as not being smart as receivers).
-
OK, Kap.
-
"It's GARBAGE!!!" x 30. Great way to argue your point, Kaplan. No matter what anyone said he'D just look at them with that moronic, open-mouthed, thousand yard stare and then whine, "I don't care; it's GARBAGE!!"
-
I blame you for watching that abortion of a television program. I'm quitting it this year, but yeah... It's worth it just for Kaplan's on-air tantrum over it on CTL last night, and how the rest of the panel responded to him like he was a brat throwing a hissyfit.
-
That, and he's a power-hitting lefty, so that's worth taking a shot on. It was mentioned in the trade thread, but I wonder if he'd benefit being moved to 1B.

Gorzelanny to Nationals

yeah, I hear all 3 of them are pretty pissed. You're such an anus. death, taxes, and unprovoked N&G attacks. Oh, that was very provoked. I know you're still pissed over the Cubs signing Punto, but don't take it out on Nats fans like a bitch. And what exactly do you think Strasburg needs to have done? -

Basically it was the celebration pic juryrigged to look like the boxcover to a very sexy adult film.
-
Thibs' defense runs deep...so deep.
-
More or less, I think they're just catering to the overly pessimistic fans. Regardless of why they're doing it, the bottom line is that most of the members of the sports media here are constantly looking for reasons to complain or rail against the teams here, and that's going to be true in almost any major market. Rah-rah, everything is great bull [expletive] doesn't make money, so this idea that Green Bay is somehow relatively unique because the press around them is "objective" (and they're not) is silly. It's the same there as it is basically everywhere.

Yeah. Move big boy to the corners. -
All of those guys have trashed Cutler, the receivers, the OL and Lovie and the coaches this year. Granted, less this year than usual, but if you think they're just rah-rah homers you just don't follow them except every once in a while. The stock and trade for a Chicago sports reporter is "what's wrong with this team?" like 95% of the time.
