  1. So it is because they are hitting dongs. I knew it wasn't because they actually hit. I don't know, can people teach others to dong? Oh well. I think we all can agree hitting coaches don't mean crap. Well, we're living the results of a dong-driven offense sans the dongs. It's a real scene, man.
  2. that would be an excellent gene pick A MORE OFFENSIVE SPECTACLE I CANNOT RECALL.
  3. Houston! With the 8th best team OPS in all of baseball! (The Cubs are 18th)
  4. Houston: first in dongs, but not first in our hearts. (Cubs are 13th)
  5. He left Houston to come here, look how Houston is doing without him Not well? *Pats head* Yes, that's right, little one. Now go to sleep and think no more of this.
  6. The scary thing is that Ross is better than Montero right now. *Sad horn*
  7. i also would have accepted "fright night" Or: Like the Batman villain?!? [ultimate disgust]If that HELPS...[/ultimate disgust] i hope the cubs say bad bye to their offensive woes next inning MAYBE THE DINGO ATE YO' OFFENSE.
  8. I like to call Ross's glove the Rogue's Glove...it's where he kept the ball, and his dirty little secret. Short, devious, balding...his name was ROSS. He killed my mother.

  10. This Cubs offense is a real two-face.
  11. Nah, they really should trade some of them. In a deal where the value is there yes, but Hamels isn't one of those deals. You're not locked into him for more than 4 years he's making less than what he'd get as a FA right now and he's a fantastic pitcher and he's barely a year older than the lesser pitcher you're willing to sign for 5 years and more money. That's a ton of value.
  12. No The only thing I can think happened is that he keeps stumbling across the same episode...which isn't impossible given the syndication deluge.
  13. And David Ross is always secretly pining for Rachel OH DAMN WRONG SHOW.
  14. I bet Maddon always bursts into the clubhouse yelling HOOCHIE MAMA and looking for free food.
  15. Your sig pic is so depressing to look at now.
  16. Oh come on, even I'm not that dramatic .189 .293 .377 .670 in May. .240 .286 .356 .641 in June. Personally I'm glad he's only signed to one year.
  17. Lester hit one of their batters in the ankle. Ah, OK; Gameday was already in the middle of the Colon AB and then suddenly that vanished and was replaced by "injury delay" and I thought something dramatic had happened.
  18. So I see DiamondMind losing his [expletive] brains in the first inning, load up Gameday to see what happened and expect that Lester has walked a couple and given up a run or more...and find that he give up a leadoff single before striking out the next two and getting a groundout, all in 16 pitches. Holy hell, what a lunatic.
  19. Whatever the hell that is. The Bulls aren't staying static; Butler is trending in the right direction. Mirotic is trending in the right direction. Broken record that it is, Rose showed that if he can stay healthy he's still a weapon. That's a tremendous core to have, and it's one that we've not yet seen them actually play at full strength or ability.
  20. Nah, they really should trade some of them.
  21. That a pitcher as good as Hamels is only making $23.5 million the next 3 years and $20 million the 4th if the team keeps him is a damn good thing.
  22. No. He wasn't necessary for the purposes of this discussion of the core players being the same for several years. Obviously, Mirotic, McDermott, Portis, and Snell being more than role players this year would completely change things. Mirotic after a year of playing in the NBA should be a huge difference. Saying something like "Butler/Deng" just has all kinds of things wrong with it. For one, the season Butler just had is arguably better than any Deng had during his time with the Bulls. Butler simply isn't just the + role player that Deng was. Gasol is better and more valuable than Boozer. The only pairing that kind of works is Korver to Dunleavy. You're basically just saying "Body B replaced Body A" when Butler, Gasol and Mirotic are pretty big upgrades over the players you're comparing them two (or, in Mirotic's case, just leaving him out altogether)
