    I can't believe he thinks Pie got anything even close to a fair and consistent shot at being a starting player. I'll bet he was ranting that the Cubs shouldn't have let Pierre go after his "great year."
  2. Sammy Sofa
    That's really the only suggestion that makes much sense if we're talking moving him out of leadoff.

    WHERE IS THE TALK OF THE BELLY FIRE?!?

    As if watching soccer live wasn't already dangerous enough...

    Aren't his numbers God-awful with people on base?
  6. Sammy Sofa
    Yay! Just under 6 months until the fake rallies start again! Please tone down the positive vibes. Your constant positive attitude is getting annoying.

    Yes, it makes complete sense for them to be actively orchestrating a media campaign to smear someone who wants to pay them a gigantic amount of money for something they're trying to sell.
  8. Sammy Sofa
    This statement makes absolutely no sense at all if you know anything about either player.

    If it meant a Cubs WS win in my lifetime, I'd suffer a jumbotron.

    It really is nuts. He is a likeable but ultimately underwhelming player that is nowhere near as good as people think he is. I rarely listen to Murph and hadn't heard his "Theriot is the MVP" rant for over a month, so I guess I figured he would have wised up. Guess not. I also wouldn't mind trading DeRosa for the right deal. He'd probably look pretty good a few teams with his deal and production over the last 2 years.

    Jeter could eat a baby at the plate with Mantle's bat, clean up with Ruth's jersey and then dance a jig with Munson's corpse and Yankee fans would still line up to fall down at his feet.

    2003. Not even close. Hell, 2004 blows 2007 out of the water.

    I'd say moderate to high. It's my default page, so pretty much anytime I sit down to the computer I'm swinging by for at least a few minutes.

    Once-in-a-generation players are going to cost you.

    If facing left handed pitchers continue to be such a glaring weakness, I'm going to be a LOT more concerned. It's ridiculous that the Cubs are so easily stiffled by southpaws, especially younger ones.

    Baseball's history is riddled with great player who at times completely melted in the post-season, sometimes over and over again during their careers. This is mostly due to it being such a small sample size. Allowing some less than stellar playoff numbers (which don't even define all of his playoff stats over his career) to potentially deny signing a player of ARod's caliber, if such a thing is possible, is absurd.

    yes. Selling the Cubs w/o Wrigley wouldnt maximize the bids. Besides, if that were to happen, how long before the Cubs new owner decided to build a new stadium and ditch Wrigley all together? It's just a negotiating ploy to get bidders to start high. Exactly. These kind of statements, to me, seem to exist to ideally drive up the bids.

    I think Selig knows the potential of Cub fans throwing a huge revolt against him if Cuban is not given a fair shake. I just want him to have a fair and real chance. If he doesnt make the best offer I wont complain. How exactly would Cub fans carry out a revolt against the commissioner of baseball? blow his house up? im in i knew i could count on you Is this before or after the heroin to the forehead? Wrong poster. Treeman, not IMB, is the master of injecting heroin into ones forehead. However, I'm sure IMB is skilled as well. I know. But it's become the go-to ultimate protest act for all when it comes to the Cubs and getting screwed by suits.

    FTW.

    You're talking like you know the players themselves are making these plans and buying the tickets. I think it's far more likely the organization plans ahead and takes care of these things. I doubt Aramis ever sat down and decided to buy himself some airline tickets home before the series was done.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    This was the one thing that really solidified my opinion of Jeter as an overrated egomaniac. The guy actually has the balls to refuse to move to 3rd when one of GREATEST SHORTSTOPS OF ALL TIME shows up to play. OK, granted, maybe they tried Jeter at 3rd in some practice sessions and he was hideous...but I doubt it.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Which this story neither proves nor disproves, as several have pointed out. These guys getting plane tickets isn't like most of us having to get plane tickets.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    I can understand pointing out flaws in a player's approach to the game, but he's so far beyond that in that he seems to be repeatedly saying that Aramis' performance is actually detrimental to the team. Insanity.

    Zambrano's sparkling diamond didn't help.
