  1. Please tell me that insanely forgettable exchange was from, like, 2 years ago.
  2. ok cool ILL TAKE IT
  3. Well, then you wouldn't bet at all, obviously...a scenario which you are the resident expert for.
  4. Gentlemen, gentlemen, please; let's do the right thing and speculate what hilariously terrible offer the Cubs made to him (if they made one at all). I'm going to say 7/$27m (just to keep it under $200 mill because the Ricketts are dicks like that) with 2 team options and exclusive naming rights to all Cubs players' pets in perpetuity.
  5. Never too late to correct a missed opportunity!
  6. That guy probably trains the best butlers.
  7. Even better is how the Cubs completely whiffed or didn't even bother trying to trade for ANY of the baller players the Marlins were dumping.
  8. Intriguing.
  9. If it makes anyone feel better, the Padres actually signed the better player.
  10. How does Seal Boy fit into this equation.
  11. in fairness you are an idiot This is true, and game recognizes game, so I'm unquestionably right on this.
  12. Can you work on making this a message board for a different team?
  13. True; 3rd is WAY too optimistic. this was a wayyyy too predictable joke. when i saw the notification that you'd replied, i was 90% sure that this is what it was. do better. Hey, you just coined the 2019 Cubs' hashtag!
  14. no we're not True; 3rd is WAY too optimistic.
  15. I despise Joe Maddon more than anyone who has ever worn a Cubs uniform, and that includes Cap Anson.
  16. There was an annoying kid on the old cubs.com forum that worshipped Alou like he was Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, and Willie Mays all rolled into one, I think some long-timers might have negative feelings toward Alou that stem from those memories. That might have been me. I was all about the Alou signing, and he never really seemed to recover his rep with most Cubs fans after his first year with them was relatively disappointing. He kicked ass the 2nd and 3rd season, but that first season combined with Bartman and the whole pee-hands thing did him in.
  17. This dude had the whole world in front of him at age 22. I thought he was going to be a superstar; he was so money in the 2016 playoffs. Now he looks like my a$$ haha. This is maybe my favorite post ever here.
  18. Sounds like something intentionally leaked from the Phillies to try and drive the price down (or at least, stop it from spiraling upward). i don't see how a report that they are feeling bad about their chances and that they prob won't spend the money elsewhere (on keuchel or kimbrel) does much to drive the price down Ah, so NOW you finally have come to accept that it was always obvious nonsense to think the Cubs' FO was trying to do the same.
  19. Aaaaand that's a season wrap on my sliver of hope that we'd sign Bryce And extend/re-sign Bryant.
  20. I think it’s okay to let occam’s razor guide us to “they made a dumb move” and not come up with a complicated timeline that somehow absolves them. I think it was both they damn well knew what the money situation was going to be, and that generally they kinda suck at pitchers and panicked.
  21. im so glad this horsefeathers is going bald Few people have more deserved a combo of humiliating balding and hideous adult acne.
  22. http://www.mycubstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/chicago-cubs-tom-ricketts-harry-caray-wrigley-field.gif
  23. Step all over that cat, you beautiful, beautiful tree.
  24. You need Theo to write a book to tell you why? I should think it's pretty obvious. Yeah; he's a complicit stooge.
