    What issues are you having? It's not on til 9:00 p.m. central. I just signed up and thought it was screwed because it asked me to sign up again. If you goto the cubs main page and click on gameday audio the next page will show all the games in progress or archived. Cubs vs. TX isn't even live yet.

    I wish they could kick butt in the games that are actually telivised. But anyway, I signed up for gameday audio for this. I'm not gonna miss another ST game that's not on WGN radio!

    http://www.c-span.org/images/special/QuayleBentsen.jpg I knew Sidney Ponson. Sidney Ponson was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Sidney Ponson. But in a good way. :twisted:

    I couldn't find a smiley for one hand clapping... =; :lol:

    Hey nobody clapped at my joke. I thought it was pretty funny. . . . "He's no Ponson either. ." :?
  10. A New Era
    He's no Ponson either. :lol:

    Cool I'm in. It's a good idea just to bump this thread up the day before to remind us. Thanks!! =D>

    With Prior having some serious problems now we turn our attention to wood and miller. And can only HOPE, that Wood really will have a nice sturdy year this year . And Miller can come back and be competitive. So far it looks pretty promising. . .

    Grow up. :?: Bush is a moronic puppet. What's there to grow up about? :roll: Is this really necessary? Take it to rants if you're so intent on beating a dead horse. Sorry you're right. My hatred for that man runs so deep and so visceral that I can't contain myself when I even see the name Bush. Bucsh Stadium. BUSCH stadium!! BUSH stadium. .
  14. A New Era
    Agreed. I kinda wish we didn't have rusch. So we could see TWO of them step up. They'd only get about 4-6 combined starts anyway by the time Wood and Miller came along. . With just one spot open, we might possibly see 1, maybe 2 starts from them. .
  15. A New Era
    Pretty spot on predictions I think. The only thing I would dissagree on is Barret. . .320/.450 His OBP since he's been with the Cubs has improved over the last 2 years. And just based on that I think he is improving and getting better offensively, I'd give him. . . .340/.460 Oh but I forgot we are factoring in blanco, so your #'s seem more on target. But given that Blanco seemed to have timely hitting, I think our C position is pretty good.

    "Man, that HR really got us going. When Gooz gave up the runs in the bottom half of the inning, man....we had that HR to fall back on. It gave Guzman the chance to relax, man, with a 4-run lead going out there. Man, Neifi saved us, know what I'm sayin'?" I can see that!! :lol: Dusty would give Neifi credit, "if it weren't for Neifi, Guzman wouldn't have been able to settle down. Thanks Neifi for making Guzman a great pitcher!!"
  17. A New Era
    Wow! Me too!! :oops: Barret's a Cubbie! That's for sure.
  18. A New Era
    Most other teams can say the same thing with a couple of key players in the WBC. Of course, most other teams aren't missing DLee though...:D I don't know how people can be complaining really. We have Aramis as our one slugger hitting 3rd. No Dlee, no Barret to back him up with some slugging. . Anyway we are at .500 during the spring or around that. I see no real problems at all in ST. Murton is doing good, Cedeno is coming around, and we are scoring runs. Who's complaining about our offense anyway?
  19. A New Era
    Or give Marshall a shot!! Marshall's a freakin giant! I want to see him given a start. I really don't think Hendry needed to sign Rusch at all. I mean he has a few good guys in the minors he could "fall back on" for a few starts. Atleast trying that. You save $3 mil in '06 payroll and you take a chance that just maybe, one of those guys could have a break out year and join the rotation. Wouldn't be the first time something like that happened. But now with Rusch starting. You are taking away possible starts/chances from Ryu, Marshall, Hill, or Guzman.

    ozzie really loves to spite the cubs What I'm pissed about is WE should have feilded a more competitive team. Why can't WE want to beat the sox [deleted] when we face them in ST? Why not feild: Murton, Barret, DLee, Sing. And for heavens sake, skip Rusch during the rival ST games.
  21. A New Era
    I certainly don't want to see him go out and get another starter either. But I would rather see him give Marshall, Ryu, or Guzman a shot. Heck I would prefer we just didn't even have Rusch and give 2 of those guys a shot for the first few weeks. I'd take giving one of those 3 a shot over Rusch or Hill. Rush and Hill have already proven they suck. Might as well take a shot at somone coming up and making a difference!!
  22. A New Era
    Ronny said something like that during the WGN radio broadcast of the Cubs vs. Sox. Santo seems to really thing Hendry will be out to get another starter (which he should have gotten anyway). . How much credibility do you give to that statement. And if so, who could Jim POSSIBLY pry away from another team?
  23. A New Era
    Rusch sucks!! And I was yelling this at the TV even before the game started.

    I called him a wuss because they are going to let him sit for 10 days because of a sore shoulder. Ok maybe that was harsh. Should I say instead that his body is just not sturdy and they are treating him like a wuss. Is that better? He's not gonna toughen up any be babying him like this. He will get used to, and almost expect to be rested for 10 days any time a little warmth or soreness is felt in the shoulder or arm. I'm not a doctor. So can someone tell me, is there a major risk by pushing him out there to pitch through the pain? Or might it be benificial to have him pitch through it so he can strengthen his arm for the season? I mean what are we going to do. Rest him for 10 days. Then start him on a 3 week strengthening program again. And have him report soreness in the 2nd week. And rest him for another 10 days!? Isn't there a point were we should just say, OK MARK. Common now, pitch through the pain, strengthen your arm for the season. YOU CAN DO IT!!

    You don't feel the slightest twinge of regret that, Lee and Barrett coming back or not, Team USA just lost? To Team Mexico, no less? No not really. I don't care for the WBC one bit. Barret needs to be in camp and catch our new picthers. And Lee needs to be needs to be back to get some at bats. Actually I'm hapy we got everybody back. Zam, Blanco, Barret, and Lee. I'd rather see them with their team mates. You know, building chemistry, friendships, and learning to play together. Than I do this stupid, new contest. Idiotically placed in the WRONG time. Guys need to be with their teams in Spring. Not playing some olympic style compitition.
