    What a moron.

    His walks are up there, but if this kid gets some more control, he's going to be really impressive for a long time...so long as the Cubs don't saw his arm off. And nice 1-2-3 save, Demp!
  3. Sammy Sofa
    I'm not, but I am at times just out of spite. SUCK IT, TIGERS!
  4. Sammy Sofa
    I know it's superficial, but he blinks very oddly, too. Like he's trying not to go cross-eyed.

    Nobody, huh? :twisted: Electon Blue also mentioned Lofton. So, what you're saying is, Mojo can't read? :wink: That sounds like a great TV movie of the week... And everyone picking Sosa needs to stop! He's an active player is his mind only.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    SPEED. DOESN'T. SLUMP. But can they catch the ball? I'm with you all the way, Jimmy!
  7. Sammy Sofa
    Nope, nobody. *Rimshot*

    And he's acknowledging that. Despite what some want to say, this isn't the way things usually go with him and he's owning up to it. He had an extra crappy day on a team having a crappy day.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    I'm surprised nobody has said Lofton yet.

    Nomar and Alooooooooou. I'm gonna miss the hell out of Walker.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    This thread is a douchebag.

    I was on the fence about Novoa, but he's been stinking it up left and right. With the numbers Wuertz is putting up in the minors, there's no logical excuse to not have him up here.

    There's very few that I don't want to see do well...mostly crusty old veterans who are mediocre at best who get way too much playing time. But as a whole, I don't wish any of them ill...a player is player. They can't help it if they were put together on a poorly planned team.

    The Riot and Murton in? Awesome. Jones (yeah, I know why), Walker and Barrett sitting? Woof. This is gonna be ugly unless Lee and Aramis miracuously bring the big bats.

    The middle relief on the Mets is actually better then Trachsel. Doesn't anyone on the Cubs remember when Trachs pitched for the team? The way to beat him is to take pitches, even strikes. He gets frustrated deep in counts and throws gopher balls...and lets not forget how terrible he is out of the stretch if you actually get runners on. Now I understand against great pitchers you want to be aggressive, but Steve is the type of pitcher that you hit hard between pitches 70-100; 13 pitches in two innings against him is criminal. God, this is so true. Lee worked him like a pro...when he finally walked, the pitches weren't even close.

    Yes. As if 1969, 1984, 1989, 2003 were any easier to take than the ball going thru Buckner's legs?? IMO that was the worst, b/c the Red Sox were 1 strike away. Yeah, the Sox choked often, but really, who in their right mind ever thought of them as a "bad team?" The Red Sox regularly made the playoffs and went to the WS a number of times...they just couldn't seal the deal. But they were still respected as a good and often great team at the end of the day, season after season. The Cubs, on the other hand, have had some flukey good seasons, and that's it. They're not respected at all. They have had respected players...they have a respected stadium. Hell, the scoreboard is more respected than the team itself. The team is a joke, year in and year out, with a few exceptions here or there...not that those exceptions matter, since they faithfully enforce the joke the next year, without fail.

    Dusty's here at least until the end of the year, period.

    Cedeno was really propped up on his defense going into this year? Man, where the hell was I? I was flat-out terrified of seeing him hurl over to 1st and actually ended up being relieved when he didn't suck as much as I had assumed. Doesn't mean he's great or even good, but I was expecting a LOT worse and expected to see Neifi fulltime at SS by June.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Zambrano is the only person left on this team worth watching. I heart Z!!!!!!!
  20. Sammy Sofa
    I don't think he's terrible, but he's definitely not the answer at SS if this organization doesn't wise the hell up and drastically improve the OF. If we have mashing corner guys out there, I have no problem with Cedeno getting his sea legs in the Cubs' infield.

    I bought great seats for Saturday's game before the season started for my dad as his Christmas gift. Guess I should have just punched him in the throat instead. He got tickets to the other 2 games in the series from clients, so we're seeing all 3...what the heck, it's (barely) baseball and 2 of the games are free (the 1st one behind home plate and with free food, too!), so off we go. Other than that, only Cubs game I've been to this year was opening day at Wrigley. Oh, how different things looked then.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Neifi would have made that play fron 2nd or SS. *Sighs*
  23. Sammy Sofa
    As will I. Look for the guy dressed in black with a bag on his head.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    I've been using the same sig since I got here, but I've been debating making it something new...thoughts? http://home.comcast.net/~bob80/RFnetMojo2.jpg
