  1. It's no less deserved than any other announcers status as a legend. He's known throughout the country in a job that is typically only seen by a comparatively small local market. It's not just Cubs fans that elevate him. He deserves his reputation as a fantastic broadcaster...just not for nearly all of his time while announcing for the Cubs. You listen to those early games for the first years with the Cubs and you can hear him start out strong, but then he just gets tanked as the game goes on and he ends up sounding like post-stroke/heart attacks/God knows what else-Harry.
  2. [expletive] on that butt stuff.
  3. Have Harry devouring him like Jabba the Hutt eating that frog.
  4. The immortal Cardinals Hell MS Paint masterpiece really needs to be updated to have Harry's fat ass roasting down there.
  5. FFS; is that Harry Caray?
  6. Man... I really [expletive] love this front office and Maddon. Yeah, Maddon said he wanted Javy to relax and smile. That's what George said to Lennie, too. I also had flashes of this:
  7. [expletive] that [expletive].
  8. Ugh. Come on.
  9. The first two would be "natural causes." Is this showing up anywhere besides Twitter? I hope it's not actual news.
  10. Looking around online, it's cool how the response seems to pretty much universally be one of love and respect and sadness.
  11. It's corny, but I'm moving in two days and I'm really wishing the Staring Lineup figure of Ernie I've had for a good 25 years wasn't buried in a box somewhere.
  12. What the heck is a hipster complaint.
  13. Man, that's....that's just sad. He really seemed like he'd be a joy to know or even just be around. One of the greats. http://interactive.wttw.com/sites/default/files/styles/span4/public/remembering-chicago/ernie-banks-500-sun-times.jpg?itok=zwWgapi9
  14. It's pretty damn sexy.
  15. Fuuuuuuuuck, the version with the striped socked might be my favorite uniforms ever.
  16. http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/2013/06/you-got-me.gif
  17. Yeah, where did this "Castro strikes out a lot" thing come from? He's an aggressive hitter, sure, but that does not compute.
  18. He could be; it all depends on how the team does.
  19. I really liked the Greene idea at the time; I think a lot of other people here did, too. I mean, it's not like it was obvious the guy would end up all but crippled by social anxiety disorder. His value between 2004 and 2007 was sexy as hell. He looked like he'd be a beast if you got him away from San Diego.
  20. If the NSBB community agrees to fund it, I...will have to seriously consider this. Being on the back of the neck is brutal. BRUTAL.
  21. If he's inspired by this thread then let me just say, Javier, I think your tattoo is stupid and if you turn it around you can punch me right in my fat, stupid face.
  22. Yeah, thinking about Baez figuring it out would make being wrong about him amazing. [expletive], it would change the face of everything.
  23. Everyone wants him to figure out the god mode cheat. I think everyone naysaying/worried about him WANTS to be wrong about him. It would make my shriveled heart grow three sizes that day.
