For the record, it took Lou seven seasons to win his 100th game with the devil rays

no, that's incorrect.

electric boogaloo

Doesn't get much dumber than Lou tonight. I'm sorry if it offends anyone. I think if we all chipped in $10, we could pay Rob Dibble to take out Lou for us. YOU WANNA BE A MAN?

i really feel like im in an alternate universe and these are the bizarro cubs how long can stuff like this keep happening has my world moved on?

is reed johnson on first yet? wells is a walk machine

Careful getting down from that cross. It doesn't sound like you're an unbiased source here. I can't dispute what you said, because it's all a person's opinion. You wouldn't expect Cubs fans to have an accurate opinion of White Sox fans would you? And, I'll usually be the last person to back up some of the tools at Cubs games.(See my rant titled the 4 people you meet at Cubs games.) The throwing all the balls on the field was stupid. Throwing trash on the field in the past was stupid. But this type of obnoxious tool behavior DOES happen everywhere. And at a pretty similar ratio. As CubinNY alluded to, you can't claim that us who rely on stats so heavily in baseball should be able to realize the ratio is greater, and then use your anecdotal evidence to prove it. It's flat out an opinion, and there's no way to prove it. Brennamen's biased, he's a Reds announcer and a senile old coot. We're biased, we're Cubs fans. You're biased, you're a Sox fan(I think) Oh well. First of all, is it that far fetched to think that I might be banned after my first post? I appreciate not getting banned (thanks) but it doesn't seem to take much to get the "troll" label and threatened with banning. you, for all intents and purposes, call cubs fans drunken idiots and you expect to be called a troll? i'd say that you are anticipating well. what my data says is that things are the same, lenny dykstra was getting beer dumped on him 20 years ago and he'd get doused tomorrow. in philly, mike schmidt was getting booed 25 years ago and he'd get booed tomorrow. in new york, alex rodriguez always gets booed. in addition to things being the same at wrigley, things remain the same at every other park. from battery night to disco demolition to the attack on tom gamboa, virtually every fan base has it's share of drunken idiots---and if they don't, the team leaves town due to lack of interest. anecdotal evidence, yes, but just as convincing. i believe you mean intensive purposes

if he's such an mvp then why is his ankle broken

hey truffle, is the woman's intuition that's telling you that Cedeno will never improve above his age 23 season the same one that told you that Eric Patterson was a future mlb stud?

He's got a ways to catch Cedeno's .957. doesn't matter... you don't bench a guy OPS'ing .893. lol, you're still holding on to theriot, huh?

angel pagan is such a dick

man i hate angel hernandez

my math (i dont have any data) says

Lebron vs. Kobe is a tough call, because I think Kobe is a better player, but Lebron's statistics are mind blowing

yes

KG turned around a team that was 24-58. Yes Ray Allen helped that out alot, but Garnett was the best player on the best team this year. He was the leader of the best team in the NBA. If that isn't MVP material then a I dunno what is. And to say Al Jefferson was better than him, im sorry then I don't want to talk NBA with you anymore. KG's year was just a tad better than Jefferson's (25.3 PER to 22.8) but we're also talking about $23m and $2m. The other top guys go like this Kobe Bryant 24.3 Chris Paul 28.3 Lebron James 29.23

when the entirety of your argument is that you think it's possible that he may have done steroids, it's probably a good idea to shut up

I don't think they are considered, nor should they be considered, journalists. They are entertainment. I didn't say he was a journalist, i believe the announcer should try to be as unbiased as possible. I realize an announcer that follows a team day in and day out have the biases, but its their job to try to avoid that. Not only did Mary miss that boat, he went as far to insult an entire fan base and tie the fan base to the organizational problems. You'd think cub fans would get some credit for being die hard for a team that doesn't win. Home team announcers aren't supposed to be unbiased.

Btw, in a season where Lebron averaged 30, 7 and 7, Chris Paul had the best season by a PG in over a decade and Kobe Bryant dominated the league, Bill Simmons picked Kevin Garnett as his MVP. It's sad really, Simmons was great at first, then got to the point where only his NBA stuff was accurate and now he's fallen into the ESPN trap of saying stupid S just to get a reaction instead of actually doing good work.

He should be at least an .800 OPS guy that plays superb defense, I can't imagine why anyone would want to get him at bats.

Gasol was a monster. 38, 16, 8 and 3 blocks! Easily the best trade deadline move in the NBA this year. best one in a long time, considering what they gave up for him

Dusty hates kids; Doesn't spank Darren when he tells his father to "shut up" this will show those cubs fans
