  1. Bruce. Could you stop by the Fukudome thread please? :mrgreen:
  2. If the sox get him, I will be so Fukudomein pissed off.
  3. you don't understand, he throws balls like they're frickin lasers Like Frickin laser beams?
  4. 1. Lofton would be great. I've been wanting him signed since he left. I'm a big KLo fan. 2. Do you not realize how lame the stamp of approval thing is? If not, I hope you do soon. Seconded on both. These replies have The New Era stamp of approval.
  5. It would be wonderful if he just happpened to know Fukudome San's agent. I'm all ready to change the text on my signature!
  6. Can I say I just want a good trade or FA signing please? I'm bored of just signing our own players. . Give me something during the WM Hendry. Roberts, I don't care as long as it improves us.
  7. Or, will Jim sneak up on Cesar first? We need to follow this closely. Closely? I'm not sure this is something I would want to be anywhere near. Yeah, it will probably smell.
  8. Feel bad, I got beat by seconds! And I didn't even get quoted either. :(
  9. I read "Eyre Exercises" then I got all excited. Then you went ahead and said "option". Then I got mad. :oops:
  10. Is this a Borat joke? :lol: No, if it was it would read.
  11. Yeah, and I'd take ARod at 5/50 million. Can you give Hendry any credit? I think the point was, if Boston was offering 2/5 to Kerry, couldn't we have just matched that. Because a low amount is a less risky contract. And if Kerry IS gonna come back, and get better. 2/5 is MUCH better than 1/4. Because You'll already have him locked up for next year for only 2.5. Whereas if he does great this year and you just paid him $4 mil. How much do you expect him to take next year? It's just another example of Hendry's bad spending and lack of long term plans. That was the point, I think.
  12. Shut up [expletive].
  13. And then proceeded to still employ Jim Hendry. I'm glad he's gone. Hopefully, Hendry will soon follow. Let's see if the next guy can get the owner to open up their pocket book as much as John did last year. That is what I'm talking about. Ofcourse we can never directly compare because it will be 2 different owners.
  14. I'm sad he's leaving. I think he would have been good for the Cubs long term. I liked his passion, and how he plainly just came out and said, no more excuses, it's time to win. Goodbye and goodluck John.
  15. So why did I get an email from the score saying John Mcdunnough will be the new president for the blackhawks. Does this mean he can no longer be president of the chicago cubs?
  16. I'm tired of this. I want to start hearing rumors on GOOD CF's and RF's we are going after. NO MORE MI PLEASE!!
  17. Ah, good bit of info. That's probably it. Thanks Miz.
  18. Kaz would be ok if it INDEED meant we are getting Fukudome. Derosa can be the supersub. We did not get the SB I wanted after Sori got injured. Kaz adds some more speed and SB when he plays. I would not mind at all a Kaz, Dero, and Theriot MI as long as it meant a Soriano, Pie, Fukudome OF.
  19. Those bashers re: Prior/Wood certainly don't exist here. Few things get flogged more than the ridiculous notion in the past couple years that we should release Prior/Wood so we can move on. There are floggers for everything Hendry does. Including releasing and not releasing prior.
  20. Furcal? Hendry wanted him or Pierre and wound up with one. Last season he said he would get Soriano and he did. If he wants Fukudome just as bad, I can only hope he would be able to get it done. I would guess. And this is just me guessing here. That since Hendry got rid of Jones, he either already has a handshake (or bow), or is extremely confident he has Fukudome pretty much signed at this point (per talks with him I suppose).
