  1. You guys are hilarious. LET'S GET SOME RUNS!!!
  2. Well, he's not a player but I'm convinced Piniella has made more of a difference than anyone else by themselves. I think Zambrano is the heart and soul of this team, for better or for worse.
  3. And Buck Coats is gonna win it with a pinch-hit granny off Dempster. No. They will clinch in FLA.
  4. If you're like me, you've been wanting Dunn for a long time. I'm guessing the odds of his coming here voluntarily are negatively impacted by this.
  5. HOLY PISS CAN WE PLEASE REMIND THIS GUY THAT HE'S TOM SHEARN
  6. He's not Neifi. The End.
  7. Didn't I read they were trying to move him to DH but he doesn't want to? This could work out every bit as well as Nomar did.
  8. Man it is REALLY gonna suck to lose it in the ninth now
  9. Wow, you guys are a buncha nervous nellies. It's almost like you expect bad things to happen, where the hell does that come from?
  10. No, he should be part of the Johan Santana trade.
  11. HEY HEY HEY.....IT'S MAAAATTT ALBERS!!!! (Sorry, I always wanted to say that)
  12. Many sons of many bitches
  13. Wayne Krivsky? Jared Burton was a pretty good rule 5 pick as well. I only mention this because Krivsky has taken such a beating on this board; he's actually managed to add a nice amount of talent to that team at a negligible cost, but his significant good moves tend to be brushed aside so we can make fun of him for trading obvious studs like Kearns and Lopez away for nothing. He has his flaws but yeah, you gotta give him some credit for recognizing talent. Lopez: .244/.306/.356 Kearns: .267/.350/.407 Replaced with: Gonzalez: .277/.330/.478 Hamilton: .297/.374/.566 Who would you rather have? Sorry; I should know sarcasm doesn't translate well here. I'm not a huge Krivsky fan but that has more to do with guys like Stanton and Cormier rather than "the trade", which I never thought was that bad. Lopez was brutal at SS. Kearns wasn't that great. Both Majewski and Bray look to be useful, and Daryl Thompson had a pretty good year. I think Cub fans just love to rail on Krivsky cause there aren't that many GMs they consider worse than Jim Hendry out there. But like I said, he's brought in a lot of talent in a short period of time.

  15. #1 in play, out Repeat as necessary
  16. Time to sip your crap. I mean tip your cap.
  17. Gee, I wonder why with everyone complaining about the lack of homers.
  18. Wow! What an exciting game. Too bad the Cubs lost. Oh well.
  19. Dang, I was hoping Dempster would take a curtain call.
  20. I love the Cubs and most of their players. But if we could swap 40 man rosters straight up with the Brewers I'd do it in a heartbeat.
  21. You have every right to boo. But booing a highly emotional player who's just signed a five year contract is beyond stupid. Go ahead and boo if it makes you feel better about yourself. But telling yourself it's doing anything to help the situation is a mistake, IMO.
  22. Bobby Abreu was underrated, til everyone started talking about how underrated he was; now he's overrated. Also, I've never seen a great player as vilified by his own fans as Adam Dunn.
  23. Go back to your hole. whatever hole he came out of better be pretty damn big cause theres alot of us that are comin from the same place Really? Lee is a whining crybaby? The more posts I read, the more I agree with Z and Lee that Cub fans are foolish. Couldn't agree more. People seem to think they're somehow providing some sort of motivation with the booing. Apparently they assume the players aren't trying hard enough or else they'd obviously be getting the results. I have a feeling that if you were actually in the clubhouse you'd know how ridiculous that was, and how ignorant most fans really are about what causes these difficulties. Bottom line is that fans booing players probably hurts the team way more than any "help" it may provide.
  24. By the thread title I thought this was gonna be a parody/ update of the song: "Hey Chicago, whaddya know/ The Cubs don't quite completely blow..." Great video though; Steve Stone looks so freaking young.
