  2. I guess I win! I'm the last poster this early morning!!
  3. Yeah, but your eyes would be DAMN WIDE OPEN, the other half inning!!
  4. If that happens, I'm gonna need a new pair of pants. I'm already on my second pair tonight. long lines at the pisser in Texas Stadium? Nope. Check out the Ramirez thread. Oh. I was gonna say. The Soriano thread? :lol:
  5. There was some guy recently saying the Cubs will be sold. Saying his father is on the board of directors or something. Then he said if the Cubs get sold he'll come back and rub it in my face. Just because I didn't want to beleive that sons of director's of the board actually have time to care about a wittle ol messege boawd.
  6. Weenie! QFT Last Poster Posting Competition I'm an insomniac so you are all in trouble I'll be the last poster, sorry to dissapoint.
  7. If Bob Sanders was playing the Colts would have won. And if my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle. What's your point? I cant wait for someone to quote this with a pic and get banned If your aunt had balls she'd be a baseball player!! http://us.inmagine.com/168nwm/deximage/yngis001/ph134044.jpg
  8. The chicken is giving so I bet he did. That's about as dirty a joke as I can make without getting banned The Chick is on the kittens HEAD. IT's ON IT's HEAD!!
  9. How dare you try to bring logic into this thread. anyway..... So what's your favorite planet? Mines the sun. It's like the KING OF PLANETS! We all know that the moon isn't in fact made out of blue cheese, but I'll ask you this. If the Moon were made outta barbecue spare ribs, WOUDYA EAT IT? I know i would. I'd go back for seconds and wash it down with an ice cold budweiser! Shaddap Harry!
  10. What is the meaning of the bird? And what is the meaning of the kitty cat? What page is this defined (if you insist I read).
  11. Jim Bologne wrote that. He's not even part of the Cubs orginazation!!
  12. You're talking 101 crap and we've moved on to grad school....catch up pleez I'm sorry but you are all POSTING FASTER THAN I CAN READ!! :lol:
  13. So what's happened since the last time I posted, on page 82? BTW Here's my current prefered line-up, with the way things are now, barring further changes. . Soriano Murton Lee Ramirez Barret Jones Derosa Izturis P Not a bad line-up at all. .
  14. I'm having fun. :thumleft: (don't these things make non-premium people curious what the heck this is for or what it looks like?) Yes, I appreciate the acknowledgment too, :angry non-premium guy: I'd rather be an angry non premium guy than an angry premium guy who is so upset that the Cubs got soriano. . http://www.ganjatalk.com/forum/images/smilies/bananadance2wd.gif
  15. Here are some numbers. here are some other numbers. here are the numbers that show why my first sets of numbers are meaningless. nice post I felt left out with all of the other meaningless #'s posts.
  16. I'm very pumped too. I had to quote this. Because I agree completely. This is how the Cubs should be every damn year. It's so good to feel like a big market team again!!
  17. Soriano is overpaid yes. But too many people are BANKING on Soriano posting 2004/2005 #'s. The thing is, we are getting another great SLUGGER that will look really good in our line-up. We now have 3 bonified "big bats" with Lee, Ram, and Soriano. And we should all be happy.. . ARAM carreer OPS - .825 SORI carreer OPS - .835 ARAM carreer SLG - .493 SORI career SLG - .510 ARAMS 2001-2006 OPS .886 .666 .789 .951 .926 .913 SORIS 2001-2006 OPS .736 .879 .863 .808 .821 .911 Is he gonna repeat 2006? None of us know. But I don't see a downward trend since he improved a bit in 2005. If you want to use trends I'd predict he falls between '05 and '06 at somewhere around .860 OPS. Do I mind that the Cubs overspent for that? Not if it brings us to the World Series.
  18. I don't have popcorn, but reading this has made my head pop. Does that count?
  19. I'm sure C Lee wants to come here even more, now that we have Soriano. It's pretty apparent we are going to get 2 starters as well. We went from bottom of the league, to strong contenders, in one offseason that is not even over yet.
  20. I'm coo coo for that point.
  21. Good point Chocolate Milk! Weren't there alot of people last year arguing that batting position didn't matter? Not saying those are the same people who say Soriano at lead-off is a bad idea though. .
  22. Exactly. This signing is only cost prohibitive if the Cubs make it so. If they refuse to spend to sign other players because of this contract, then obviously it will be harmful. If it doesn't effect their spending too much, then it will probably be alright. There's no hard cap here. The Cubs can do whatever they want. This signing says to me that they are going spend more than they have in past. If that's the case (it's clearly pure speculation at this point), I'm not really worried about the money. All signs (articles) point to JH not slowing down. I have no doubt JH will sign atleast 2 pitchers of the quality of a Westbrook at a Meche.
