Weird. Sounds like a mob hit from a movie.

A live look at the Cubs org:
-
How bad would the Cubs have horsefeathers up his career had they signed him? He'd be dead.

Yeah, it's gonna be him or Rizzo.

But what's the alternative? You really think mystery injury/OPSing like .300 in the last month KB is going to bring back some future difference maker for a couple months of games? What contender is looking for a shortstop hitting league average and on pace for a career high in errors? These are unique players in that they have a track record of high performance, enough to garner a somewhat substantial contract (and a comp pick) who don't have a whole lot of trade value when getting acquired just for the next 3 months. You do a fire sale in the next month, you forfeit whatever chance you have left this year, and you set the table for Ricketts to roll out some big rebuild until the 15 year olds from the Darvish trade hit puberty. That's....better than taking a shot, even a long shot, at backing into a coin flip playoff? If these guys all actually suck, we're going to suck next year regardless. Tossing away the rest of this season for a few prospects that can maybe crack our top 20 is even dumber. Look, I'm Mr. Doom Boner: I think the Cubs have thoroughly fucked themselves to the point that there's no real good option for them right now. -
Look, we all know horsefeathering baseball is a baseball, but the people pining for the Cubs to squeak-fart their way into the WC or win this division are on horsefeathering crack. Thinking this horsefeathering team has any kind of realistic shot of being the "hot at the right time" type of playoff team is beyond absurd.

What the flying horsefeathers. He's a horsefeathering monster.
-
the only reason I’m not anxious for them to hurry up and sell is because the guy in charge of making these deals that will alter the entire franchise for the next 5-8 years has shown himself to be completely inept. Try, but then at least that gets him closer to being fired. Though then the people hiring his replacement are the horsefeathering Ricketts. So the Cubs are doomed.

Holy horsefeathers. I figured the Brewers were nipping at their heels, like, 7-6 or 7-5, and then I looked up the actual score and guffawed out loud like the goober I am. It's bonkers there are people here who thinks the Cubs should do anything anything except this carcass for parts.

It's Bauer-speak for, "I'm going to cyber-bully them up to the point that it's not considered chargeable harassment."

They went from 66 wins to 85 wins, so on a relative scale they were cool and amazing. But they weren't good until the following season. And Mike Fontenot was a perfectly cromulent contributor. 2007 was also one of Howry's kick ass seasons as a Cub.

Don’t hold your breath =

Totally. Again, these are famous, rich, super religious white people. I get wanting to be sympathetic, but let's face it: these sorts of people almost always suck. And, if we're being honest, those kids have about a 97.8% of growing up just as shitty, if not shittier.
-
Yeah, this horsefeathers would be a hilarious TV show/trashy doc. A bunch of rich churchy goobers horsefeathering up like this? Delicious.
-
Most stories truely only have multiple bad guys. It was mostly a joke about Zobrist being such a churchy dork in the sack that his wife found the also terrible option of horsefeathering a pastor to be an upgrade. But also when it comes to a relationship falling apart, I don't think someone ending up with someone else is the "bad guy." Unless they're gonna go all Double Indemnity on the other person.
-
Now we DEFINITELY know who the bad guy was. (It's the guy that drives someone to have sex with a pastor)

Definitely: [tweet] [/tweet]

My entire life it never required an answer more complicated than, "I'm from just outside of Chicago." Now, granted, there's a really good chance that whatever poor sap I was talking to just didn't want to hear anything else coming out of my mouth, but I literally never came across anyone who was baffled by the concept of being from near Chicago, but not actually from inside the city limits or whatever the horsefeathers. It's not some kind of baffling code to crack. Plus the horsefeathering nerds who get all huffy about someone not actually being "from Chicago" are definitely also hot dog Nazis.

People from the city of Chicago get upset when a person from the suburbs says they are from Chicago whether they're talking to a person from Illinois, New York or England. It's very goofy horsefeathers. The city is the city though and Arlington Heights makes Evanston look like the Loop. That middle pic is pretty crazy. The official Chicago Metropolitan area as defined by the census bureau We need a stadium location version of this...

The horsefeathers I can't.

I'm pretty sure they lost that status after the renovation because of how poorly the renovation preserved those colonnades Edit: here an article about losing landmark status: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/644198/how-national-historic-landmarks-lose-nps-status IIRC during the remodel they did everything they could to incorporate the colonnades to maintain the landmark status. End result - a horsefeathers looking structure, so bad that it lost the status they tried so hard to maintain. Also - they ended up with the smallest stadium seat capacity in the NFL. This is the most horsefeathering Bears series of events short of them accidentally imploding the place. Jesus Christ.
