Isn't this an incredibly redundant statement? Who wouldn't be an "advocate" of such a thing?

Man, Roberts/Angelos/MacPhail have left devastation in their wake.

I don't know why one of the moderators doesn't end this thread. Reading posts where two people are arguing about something that doesn't have anything to do with the topic is ridiculous. The Cubs won't be acquiring Greene or Peralta. If the Roberts trade happens, he will bat leadoff, until then Soriano bats leadoff. It doesn't matter whether we agree or not, the only opinion that matters is Piniella's. How do you know he would bat leadoff?

No, that's completely wrong. I'm sorry, but that's just not realistic. Theriot ranks right near, if not at, the bottom.

And Greene's power and top shelf defense wouldn't make our team better?

Yeah, the Roberts arguers should explain that. If the big deal is having him get on before Lee and Ramirez, doesn't he still do that hitting #2?

... AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I wish Comcast would start a "Cubs channel" where they could just replay a bunch of the games they've broadcast over the years. Tomorrow is like Xmas.

Soriano at the top of the order didn't hurt the Cubs. A leadoff run scores whether or not the leadoff hitter hit a HR or he's hit in by someone else. The end result is the same.

Damn. That was a freudian slip as to who I wish knew more of. Mmmmmmmmmmm...Sulley, help me out here.

Thanks, guy who has had Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton as his avatars. Well, if you couldn't tell it was a joke....Theres also a big difference between saying " pee" jokes and having a an attractive woman as a avatar...I didnt know thinking women are hot would be immature... Paris Hilton and a woman famous solely for the size of her ass are the most mature things in the world. I'm sure you're having trouble deciding whether Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears will be next. Just because you don't think theyre attractive it makes me immature?? Look at David's avatar, and go on any other message board im sure you'll see tons of avatars of women..You sure are judgemental of people just by lookin at a freakin picture... I wasn't being judgemental. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of someone else who was. Calling out for people for making silly jokes while fawing over whorish socialists famous for having sex tapes doesn't really jive.

"Their Bruce?" Who does Levine belong to?

that's like asking "if two people own the same car but one has 2 speeding tickets and the other doesn't, which is more likely to speed?" I think it's more like asking which one is more likely to mow down a crowd of people on purpose based on the speeding tickets.

Yes.

Grace also had no problem spending the night boozing and chasing tail, yet Farnsworth is the bad guy for doing the same.

It's not like this was gonna go anywhere else. People don't care about chickens because they're delicious and never puppies.

Just be sure that a [expletive] is warmed up and stretched out before it goes into action.

Well if you like that Cylvia Browne, John Edward psyhic type of inside info --- OH may be your gig. For most of us, we could just sit around and guess just as well and be just as accurate. Those guys have been behind in regard to all of the Bedard/ Roberts rumors for weeks. According to them Roberts to the Cubs was a done deal and verified by two sources a month ago. I'm sure if we had members on this board that claimed to have inside contacts and were 99% wrong all of the time, we would be on them just the same. But again, what are they doing besides reporting what they've heard on their own website? They're not the ones posting it here, yet people talk about them like they're doing it to mess with us. It sounds like in the past these guys generally had a very good reputation for getting some leaks or scoops in terms of club activity, but this offseason has been extremely off kilter for a number of reasons. For one, it sounds like the organization has been trying to crack down on leaks. Secondly, we've heard differening quotes, rumors and claims seemingly originating from the Orioles' organization itself, making the confusion even worse. It's not like the OH guys are the only ones who have been caught up in with bad or changed info coming from the Orioles. If they hear something, they post it on their board. Again, why is it anything to get mad over or seemingly act like we've been attacked or insulted? We haven't. I think most people that are joking about the "insiders" are doing so because they don't really believe they are "insiders". And the fact that we even still refer to them as "insiders" is an insult to true "insiders". Most people that have read OH within the last 2 months can be honest with themselves and admit that there are no insiders on the board and that most of the so called inside info has been incorrect. Maybe it is due to the fact that the O's have cracked down on leaks, but the end result is still the same. Except that they've scooped penty of moves before. It's beyond just joking about it when, like you just did, people go out of their way to talk them down, again, as if they're doing something wrong. The reason they were quoted here in the first place is because they had the rep of scooping moves made by their team.

Still trying to understand why some people here need to spout vitriol at the guys from OH as if they're doing anything besides posting what they've heard. Who cares if they end up being wrong?

Please don't suck all the [expletive] out of this thread.

I'd love my [expletive] so much if he won.

There's nothing about a couple of [expletive] smacking together that needs to be filtered.
