    That's terrible.

    Noah's making some nice passes, too.

    I've only seen about 20 minutes of this game because of the WS and NBC but I'm liking what I see. Good defense and they're moving the ball very well.

    While I agree, I dont think its us(the fans) who feel that way, its more that weve pretty much accepted than management feels that way and they want him out no matter what so we just want the best return possible, and Gary Jr. is far, far from that. I would disagree and say that the vast majority of Cubs fans want Bradley gone no matter what comes back in return. Yeah, I get that impression as well. I think its 50/50. Your appraisal of the Cubs' fanbase is WAY too generous.

    Part of me is so sick of the idiots who think that Bradley needs to be gone no matter what and that any alternative to him will be acceptable that I want his replacement to be someone as useless as Sarge Junior. Just out of spite.

    Check the online articles and editorials related to the Bears for the Sun-Times and the Trib where comments can be left. People are crying that they regret the trade and the extension left and right and think he's a bust.

    Pedro fuckin' rules.

    MLB really needs to tighten up the postseason schedule. If the Yankees win it with their next game it's still almost a week until the WS starts. Chop down some of those off days and maybe add a few double headers during the regular season for all the teams so that baseball is done before November, please.

    The Yankees/Phillies WS is going to be epic. I can't wait for it.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    and Felix Pie and Ronnie Cedeno Pie might not need anymore fixing.

    How did the umps help the Yankees put up any runs? They prolonged inning after inning which gave the Yanks there shots time and time again to just hit. That's how they helped the Yanks put up the runs. The Umpire came out and admitted to only 2 blow calls: Swisher, the Double play at 3rd. But there were still 3 other plays that he missed to: 2 plays at home and the pick off play at 2nd base and all of which you were able to see clear as day that they were missed. How does Tim McClelland look at the reply after the game and only admit to those plays. When even Fox was pointing out the miss calls and going as far as slow mo or freeze shots. East Coast Bias is starting to show signs of life. Article: http://mlb.fanhouse.com/2009/10/21/umpire-in-game-4-admits-he-blew-calls/ None of the critical blown calls in this game "gave" the Yankees any runs and in fact actually deprived them of runs. Your declaration of additional blown calls is a bit of a stretch, to say the least. What plays at home are you saying were called wrong?

    This seems like a massive overreaction. You'd think the Cubs lost 100 games reading something like this. The Cubs can't trade Gregg because he's not theirs to trade. Johnson is also not theirs to "keep," nor is Grabow. Miles is not cheap.

    How did the umps help the Yankees put up any runs?
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Some of the worst calls by the umps I've ever seen that somehow have not resulted in any runs.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Kosuke had a nice turnaround to show he can be a productive (platoon) player for most of the season, but he's definitely being paid too much if that's essentially all he can offer.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Um, because he's one full season removed from a career year, and wrist injuries heal? Yes, he'll be 35 next year, but he's better than Fontenot, and the middle infield FA market isn't that deep. He's not the cure-all, but he falls under the category of "better than what we have now, and affordable." this is idiotic, we've all seen what happens when players come back from wrist injuries, and derosa wasn't too hot to begin with. BUT HE'S ONLY ONE YEAR AWAY FROM A CAREER YEAR. Do the Cubs still have Baker next season?
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Why in God's name would anyone still want to sign DeRosa? It's maddening. I swear people would still want to sign him if his wrist just snapped completely.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Hanging your t-shirts is just going to stretch out the collars.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Yes. You've got a lot to make up for.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    I'll pay erik $65 in stolen McDonald's Monopoly pieces for him to share a happy memory about the Cubs.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    $65?!?!?!?!?!?!!??!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  23. Sammy Sofa
    How did you "ehance the discussion of the thread" by basically dismissing it altogether?
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Small dogs are stupid and weak.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Was that also the game when Neifi had the epic defensive play with Pujols up to end it? My memory is fuzzy, but didn't Pujols either hit into a DP to Neifi or just lined a [expletive] bullet that Neifi caught? I know a close game ended in St. Louis with a Cubs' win because Pujols lined out to Neifi.
