  1. Most of the GMS could win if they got 110 million and thier opponents got 60 million. That's a false point since it makes like the 110 million team is only playing 60 million teams or worse. How many teams do we play every year that spend as much as us? 2 maybe 3? So a team should be all but a lock to beat any team that spends less? What if they spend a million less? 3? 5? 10? It's not as cut and dry as you're trying to make it.
  2. This. Hendry is by no means my ideal choice for GM, but I'm not expecting whoever replaces him is likely going to be better. He'll just be different kinds of bad.

  4. I like how you say that like it's crazy. I like how you've never ever been wrong once. Ever. Oh come on. Hendry is NOT a "bottom-5 GM" No one is talking about a 'few good trades' absolving him from anything. He has built a team that won back to back division championships and going into this season - on paper - the cubs were still one of the best teams in baseball. Yes, he makes mistakes (Say, Aaron Miles) but bottom 5? Please. He also was in a division the last two years where he spent a lot more money than anyone else. That's no guarentee of success.
  5. Money can mask a lot of flaws. But honestly if you were going to build a team from scratch it would take a few years to get the team you want in order to play your way. How the hell do you ever do that if you change your way every year? I could live with a few rebuilding years if we actually got someone in here who knew what the hell he was doing. The odds of which are terrible.

  7. I like how you say that like it's crazy. It is. A few good trades does not absolve him from the other absolutely brutal moves he's made. Didn't say they do, but he's not bottom 5.
  8. Are you serious? Were you in a coma for the other couple of weeks? It sure didn't even out his slump like it normally does. Wait, what? He slumped for almost two months. You really expected him to go on a two month hot streak? I figured he would at least return to his norm. I don't think he is a sub .800 ops player. ... This is basically his norm. He's great for 2 weeks: he stinks for 2 weeks.

  11. So far Miles has looked infinitely better at the plate tonight than Aramis.
  12. It takes a lot to get me pissed over a game but I am definitely in a bad mood now after that last inning.
  13. How the hell did that thing die? It looked like an absolute rocket off the bat.
  14. God, I love this 1-2 combo. It's a shame that we'll likely never see it again if they lose tonight.
  15. Is there a reason everyone is talking like the Cubs couldn't or shouldn't pencil Marshall in to the rotation if Z goes on the DL? Yeah, he's not looking good tonight but it's a last minute start in Colorado for a curveball pitcher.
  16. Wouldn't surprise me given that they were awful for most of May and basically all of June.
  17. Fox in for Fontenot would make it sexier Only if you think reeeeeeeeetarded is sexy.
  18. Agreed. Without the interceptions Vasher is below avg. He can't even tackle. I made a horrible decision to buy Vash's jersey before the 2006 season. Even if he doesn't get cut, I can't wear that to a Bears game. I guess I'll have to throw it aside with my Ayenbadejo home jersey (bought halfway through his last season with the Bears) and my Ben Gordon Bulls jersey. Please buy an Aaron Miles Cubs jersey now.
  19. Neifi Perez? Neifi Perez was actually a very good defensive shortstop. Aaron Miles is Neifi without the glove. YOU SEE THIS GLOVE? THIS GLOVE IS MADE OF GOLD. MAKE HIM HIT IT TO ME.
