Nah. PH anyone for Soto then is inexcusable. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. So then why/how are you so sure that Hill is a significant improvement over Soto when it comes to defense? We're not talking about whether Hill is technically better or not; he needs to be MUCH better to justify putting his near-useless bat in the lineup over Soto's.
-
Well, at least dumped Theriot down to where he belongs...but he still decides to start Colvin over Fukudome AND lead him off. -
Where Lou's grandparents are from?
-
Uh, no it doesn't. Lou, uh, unnecessarily, like, threw Soto under the, uhm, bus and stuff yesterday and made the, uh, very stupid decision to pinch hit, uh, er, Hill for Soto. Uh, that is what people are, uh, like, blaming Lou for. And how nice that you won't debate Hill vs. Soto on defense after you make the ridiculous declaration that Hill is a significantly better defensive catcher.
-
Exhibit one billion as to the stupidity of the Cubs, your honor.
-
Cubs win, 8-4.
-
Uh, no. Hill is marginally better on defense at best, and nowhere near being better enough to justify all the times Soto's been switched out for him during a game.

Brad Miller always struck me as being my dad if my dad went insane and decided he wanted to be an NBA player.
-
You do if your top player is LeBron, Kobe, or Wade. Rose is not the type of player who will be the man on a championship winning team. He is a great player, but not good enough to do that. Welp, he might as well give up now. Already peaked at 21.
-
Not much else to talk about.
-
Ah-doy, of course.
-
Huh...that definitely could be very interesting.
-
I WANT IT BOTH WAYS, DAMMIT.

The Cubs are still on my TV, more than 150 times a year because I HAVE DIRECTV i honestly don't understand why anyone who can get it doesn't. Because I don't feel like paying $180 to watch maybe half the games. There's so many on during the day that it's hard to justify paying that much for really so few games. My cable bill is way too high already. BUT MAN YOU REALLY NEED TO SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY YOU DONT HAVE AND GET IT EVEN AS JUST A STATUS SYMBOL TO TELL EVERYONE ON THE INTERNET HOW COOL YOU ARE!!! Holy [expletive].
-
Of course. Do whatever it takes. Again, if LeBron still said no, who gives a [expletive]?
-
Delicious.
-
Good point. Given Rose's personality it wouldn't surprise if it just didn't occur to him to be so "bold." My response was more based on the posts here making it sound like Rose was being all badass by not calling LeBron, when there's a good chance he was just too scared or clueless to do so, though I'd like to think management would have pressed him if that was the case.
-
the strong, silent type. I like desperately positive sulley.
-
Stoic, nothing. He comes across as almost painfully shy.
-
Nothing Rose said would have ever gotten LeBron here. So with that in consideration... do you want our franchise player to be a guy begging for the services of an ego-maniac, or do you want him to be a guy saying "[expletive] that, I'm the man and I'm gonna show everybody by doing it myself" Rose has the attitude of a real competitor, just like Durant. They want to beat the best, not join them. Now, can Rose be that guy? I don't know, but I'm really glad he thinks he can be. I'm not saying Rose getting involved would have gotten LeBron here, but just [expletive] do it if it could help. There's a huge gulf between begging and what the article describes, though who gives a [expletive] if he had kissed some ass? Do what's best for your team and the bottom line is that getting LeBron would have been great for the Bulls. The confidence is great, but really, whoopdy-[expletive]-doo. [expletive] this [expletive] of "oh man, it's so awesome he didn't kiss LeBron's ass." [expletive] it, he should have been licking LeBron AND Wade's taints even if it just seemed like a sliver of a chance they would come to the Bulls. If he did that and this still went down as it did, oh well, go and kick the [expletive] out of them on the court. Doing nothing was just dumb, and all this talk about his 3-point shot better not be [expletive].

The Cubs will not be on WGN much longer. Can't wait for that deal to end and then the Comcast one so that the Ricketts can roll out the Cubs' Network.
-
What happened to all the posters who were bemoaning the crippling loss of Casey McGehee?
-
Wow, Utley is signed through 2013? I had no idea why I thought his current deal was up after 2011. Is Howard's current deal through 2014 or 2015?
-
No kidding. I can't believe WSR even considered them; unless they are DRASTICALLY increasing their payroll, they're not paying out for an FA like Aramis. Hell, look at the stupid contract they gave Howard; unless Utley is a moron and/or a saint, he's going to expect to get paid along those lines, too. The Phillies are going to be locking a ton of money in VERY few players within the near future.

[expletive] Rose. Slobber all over that hog, you dumb [expletive].
