  1. Fred, what is the Cubs' record when that is the only nude pic of Steve Stone posted?
  2. This bad boy hasn't let us down yet: http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee6/ccwolfe75/SteveStone04.jpg
  3. Why "yikes?" Soriano is just being Soriano. Bradley and Lee are that low because of how slowly they started. The only "yikes" here is using only BA like that/ I agree about Lee and Bradley, but as over rated a stat as BA is, even slumping Soriano shouldnt plumet from the .300s to sub .250 in the time it took him. With his knee, he could use tomorrow off with the off day Monday. Yes and no. Soriano isn't a .300's hitter, so you knew that was going to drop anyway. He's clearly slumping, but he usually goes through roughly .260-.290 peaks and valleys.
  4. We cant possibly know that unless Fox get the same kind of playing time as Braun did in 2007, and its pretty clear at this point that thats not going to happen, so we'll never really know. The Cubs aren't going into this Fox thing cold. He's been in the organization trying to play third base (among other positions) for 6 years. They should know at this point whether or not he can play the position. I was refering more to the hitting part. You honestly think there's a good chance that Fox is as good a hitter as Ryan Braun?

  6. Dempster needs all the help he can get: http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee6/ccwolfe75/SteveStone04.jpg
  7. Can we please at least go back to including pitching info in addition to the pithy comments? Plus naked Steve Stone. It can ONLY be the pool shot. When another was added, they lost. ONLY GLISTENING STEVE STONE FRESH FROM THE POOL.
  8. gregg has gotten boned over on a bunch of those this year, frankly. one of the balls to ethier looked good too. I feel like the zone for Gregg has been really tight this year as well. His entire gameplan is to throw pitches at the knees or higher on the outside corner, and the umps are not really giving him much either way. That combined with the fact that he doesn't have a great "out" pitch is why he has so many walks. His control isn't terrible (it's a little below average)..but hitters have been fouling off the strikes, taking the close pitches for balls and then taking walks. I agree that Gregg hasn't gotten the shaft quite a few times this season when it comes to the umps calling strike 3, though he doesn't do himself any favors by working the count full so often.
  9. Why are you even here? It's really unfair for so many of you to claim to hate/not care about this team and then not follow through.
  10. That works. Soto tying it so scales can win it would be nice.
  11. This has the makings of being an epic fake rally if it doesn't pan out. Please win it now Cubs. I have to be up around 4 AM and I need to get to sleep.
  12. The end of the Expos was just too sad. http://progressiveboink.com/archive/expos.htm
  13. The Neifi pic is doubly painful due to the smiling Aramis behind him.
  14. That's gotta be tough for you.
  15. I think we need to wait and see until they have something resembling a decent team until we give up on them. People anywhere, especially in a region so transient, are not going to latch onto a new team that has been THAT bad.
  16. Hey now. I didn't say it was the worst thing ever, just that it isn't something that can just be let go. I think that maybe a few people here are just rationalizing having done it. I haven't done it, nor would I do it, but I don't just automatically ditch friends who have cheated and I certainly don't see why a ballplayer doing it changes anything. I agree with that. I would never ditch a friend over it unless they did it in a singularly horrendous manner. I just disagree with the notion that it is something we should just accept as natural. By the time you are an adult (30's), you should have a good idea as to whether you are capable of being monogamous. If you aren't, don't get into a committed relationship, it's as simple as that. I don't think it's "natural" per se, but I get why it often happens. I guess I'm more surprised at seemingly how many people seem to be let down by Carlo's maybe cheating on his wife. Personally, I'm actually surprised when I find out a young player is married in the first place as oppose to finding out one sleeps around or cheats. I just assume any of them are still single and reaping the benefits of their career, or if they're married I just assume they are or have gotten some on the side.

  18. Most of you sound like that chick who hates Sandberg.
  19. Definitely. The ump initiated the contact. Garnted, Z could have responded better, but the in this case the player was not touching the ump until the ump's arm hit his.
  20. When was the last time Murray threw out the 1st pitch/sang the stretch? Seems like it's been too damn long. I want that ball.
  21. Wait, what? It was just a link to Stone's Godforsaken Playgirl layout and interview. What was NSFW in the content that we haven't already seen posted on the board?
  22. Will this mean the Cubs win the rest of the season: Mod Edit: No.
