Russell and Chapman and Lackey? Who else? start at the top with the money behind the operations, papa rickets. Then you have that horsefeathers nebraskan politician ricket. Then you got your Maddon. Then you have the pitching coach Bosio who has since left and then got fired for having said some racist horsefeathers. Russell and Chapman sucks. Lackey is a red assed dick bird. Arrieta cheered on trump's arrival as much as anybody. And then of course you have David Ross, who everybody hates. Liked for the great capper.

Like, I'm kind of impressed he was able to type so legibly and jack himself off so furiously at the same time.

Yup; I've mentioned it before, but I had this completely wrong perception of him as, like, an old hippie type, but in somewhat more like a prime Phil Jackson-type of hippie mixed with Popovich. Granted, that's largely based on me paying almost no attention to the Rays and seeing, like, one ESPN piece on Maddon about how he would ride his bike to the park or some horsefeathers in Florida. I wasn't expecting the Cousin Eddie horsefeathers at all because I was completely in the dark about it, and I got sick of it pretty fast.
-
horsefeathers like this is one of the reasons I long ago got tired of Maddon's dumb shtick. You don't have to horsefeathering be "on" all the time, and you DEFINITELY shouldn't be right now. Don't play like you're just dumb ol' kook.

Love how we've had multiple people coming into this thread with, "BUT THEY'RE JUST OPINIONS" takes. Sizzlin'.

Phew, thank goodness you've got your eyes on the prize here, Tim. He's also an atrocious human being, which is obviously more important. But not so much so that we apparently need to make sure to accurately give Addison Russell his advanced statistic-based value its due. God forbid someone say he sucks right now.
-
Looks at this dude right here wailing about how "terrible" this thread is because nobody is taking into account the VERY IMPORTANT issue of clubhouse chemistry between Rizzo and accused abuser Addison Russell. THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE TO GRIPE ABOUT THOSE DAMN SJWS.

Cubswin11 just wildly liking posts without reading them at all.

David's got until noon CST to have one up. If he doesn't, then it's TMan92, and then Andy. -
Guys, we can at least agree that while all types of crap smells bad, normal crap doesn't smell AS bad as crap when you've had intestinal bleeding?
-
Opinions deserve scorn if they're [expletive] opinions. A white supremacist holds the opinion of racial superiority, and he should absolutely be vilified for such a thing. Holding horsefeathers opinions absolutely makes someone a horsefeathers person. Yes, they’re both scummy. But can we at least agree that there’s a big difference between the white supremacist whose white supremacy is limited to point of view and the one who actually acts upon it? What point did you possibly think you were horsefeathering making when you posted this.

I don't believe she denied the allegations. She didn't participate in MLB's investigation. I don't like the term "cooperate" since it heaps so much blame/responsibility upon the victim. And that it grants way too much legitimacy to something which amounts to little more than the entity who employs the accused asking, "did you do this?" And then people who don't want to believe it act vindicated when the victims don't want to cooperate with an investigation run by the people whose best interest is making the person accused look as good as possible. See also: the sham that is Chris Hardwick being back on AMC.

This. Ricketts, Theo, and Jed don't seem like the kind of guys who will sit on their hands and let this one play out. He needs to be gone until this is investigated and let the dust settle where it may. ..they don't? this was a big story last spring, they looked into it & assuredly learned much of, if not all of what Melisa just shared and decided to stay the course with him; they've already failed the test Yeah, they've got a lot to prove in how they handle this, and, quite frankly, I'm not confident that they'll handle it well at all.
-
It just shows how much stuff has changed; I genuinely don't remember his 2006 domestic abuse calls coming up at all anywhere when the Cubs signed him. Compare that even to how much attention the 2011 charges against him got. With his signing with the Cubs, all of his attention was focused on his on-field attitude, which sucks.
-
It's pretty much a lock that he has a signed, framed poster of Todd Hundley. Surprised he didn't swoop in when Milton Bradley was brought up recently, too.
-
Some people think it’s more important that all fans are able to enjoy the sport without tremendous internal conflict than their favorite team making some marginal improvement to the playoff roster. Maybe. Those people also still celebrate the 2016 World Series which they don’t win without Aroldis Chapman. So in the end, winning is going to cure all even though it might feel gross to some. It's not a horsefeathering "cure all," plenty of people are both rightly happy the Cubs won the WS and detest that Chapman played a role in it.
-
It's not a competition. He's a garbage person, and the Cubs knew it. So because a guy has different opinions than you, that makes him a horsefeathers person? No, it's because he has terrible horsefeathering opinions about other people. Stop with the disengenuous, "the intolerance of intolerance is the REAL intolrance" false equivalency. So just other people almost certainly share his terrible thoughts on gay people (or worse), but we don't know about it, we shouldn't concern ourselves with his awful thoughts on homosexuality that HE CHOSE TO horsefeathers OUT INTO THE WORLD? The nonsense idea that sports are this "politically exempt" thing where this kind of thing should just be shrugged off because, hey, it's sports! is such a dorky, privileged take on things. I mean, this is horsefeathering baseball; Jackie Robinson's number is retired by everyone because SPORTS ARE POLITICAL.
-
Though I do like r_mack's commitment to his whole, "I horsefeathering hate everything about this team like a lunatic, except when it's the few guys a bunch of other people are fed up with" bit.
-
Murphy doesn’t belong in the same universe as the other two. It's not a competition. He's a garbage person, and the Cubs knew it.
-
In a twisted way, this makes his ongoing suckitude even more annoying since it gives the Cubs an easy out to dump him without addressing this sort of thing head on.
-
horsefeathers, I don't even want him traded; I want him out of baseball.
-
The counterpoint is that Hader saw zero consequences for his past actions coming to light, and Russell’s behavior has more in common with that in terms of deniability than Heimlich legally admitting to committing his crime.
