Cubs odds are always like that because they get a ton of action. Vegas needs to cover itself so they give them bad odds in the off chance that the cubs actually win. I'm assuming that by bad odds you meant good odds because otherwise this sentence doesn't really make any sense, unless I'm just not getting what you're saying. If, as you say, Vegas is covering itself in the off chance the Cubs actually win because so many people bet money on them, then they would want to give the Cubs better than their actual odds (lower number:1), so that if they did win the payout would be smaller. Bad odds or worse than actual odds (higher number:1) would increase the amount the casinos would have to payout. you couldnt just infer that? Bad odds are bad odds. I've never heard good odds referred to as bad odds before. You're a little late, though. He explained it already. He was coming at it from the bettors point of view. I get it now. :oops: What am I to infer from your post, IMB? Hmm, I wonder. Certainly nothing of a personal nature. Oh, and thanks for your response to the evidence on Rusch that you requested and that I PM'd you. You're right, the evidence is undeniably clear and my statements about Rusch are irrefutably supported by them. It was big of you to take the time to respond as graciously as you did. Ohh Ohh, whats the Rusch argument, I want to get in on that! He said that Rusch was good 75% of the time he was a cub. I asked him to go ahead and explain himself. He wasn't secure enough in his facts, so he just pm'd me. The pm was basically word for word his post from an earlier thread that I had already responded to, so I didnt feel the need to go through it again, especially since it was just in pm form. Oh, this was months ago, so this whole thing is pretty childish and expected. Way to go cubswin, you reached new low. Your ridiculous Rusch argument has nothing to do with you expressing your pathetic desire to feel superior to someone (nilo) who was harmlessly stating something that only a complete mongoloid couldnt figure out on his own.

You mean like McKnight saying that Bush called him a few times? The NCAA will do nothing, just like it did about Leinart and Jarrett and Bush.

i want to see a left-handed second baseman try to turn a few double plays

Oklahoma's recent football history (last 5-7 years) is much better than Notre Dame's. However, let's not forget that Oklahoma sucked throughout much of the 1990's and has only regained prominence over the last several years. Notre Dame has accomplished more in its history than Oklahoma, and its been consistently better over the last 15-30 years. You'll get no arguments from me there. Of course, what you wrote has nothing to do with what I wrote. But good job anyway. I was responding to that specifically. Charlie isn't doing anything that any other coach doesn't do...in fact, do we need to go down the laundry list of shady discipline moves by Stoops at OU? It's unbelievable. Yeah sure, that should be fun. You mean like kicking Bomar and Quinn off the team, as opposed to a one-game suspension or whatever it was that Troy Smith got the year before for taking money from a booster?

THIS IS OUR COUNTRY

No, guys that announced verbal commitments to you and then change their mind with no explanation on signing day don't happen at every school. When was the last time you heard of that happening? Enlighten me. Robert Meachem (I know you know him) was an OU verbal before pulling out on signing day and signing with Tennessee. Nic Harris was a Michigan verbal before signing with OU on signing day. These are just two, one that happened against OU and one that happened for us. And it took me two seconds to think of it. It happens all the time.

5 pages and no oldcubsfan. Must be asleep.

I seem to recall plenty of Boston stuff over the years, like asking the Babe's daughter to come to Fenway to urge Ruth to end his stranglehold on the team, and the efforts to raise the Babe's piano from the bottom of a lake. Nobody gives a damn about the White Sox. Thank you. It's not as if the Cub's themselves are doing this, that might be a little too cheesy. It's a restaurant named in honor of the goofiest broadcaster ever. No one looks at this and things "those chicago hicks!". It's all in fun and everyone knows that they aren't really doing this in order to reverse the curse, but to make a little money. Chill.

As was said right above, the attacks on Weis are in regards to his hypocricy. He denounces recruits for backing out on verbal commitments when he is out trying to get recruits to do just that. I know it goes on. We all do. Almost every school continues to recruit the players they want even after verbal commitments. Everyone realizes that nothing is final until a name is signed on the LOI. What makes Weis a whiner and a hypocrite is he tries to act all wronged by these boys while at the same time, he's trying to get others just like them to back out of commitments. He should do what he does, fine...but quit bitching like a teenage girl when the same crap bites him on that rather large posterior. Ok, this'll be the last time I try to make this clear. He's not whining about guys breaking their commitments alone, he was whining - very justifiably - about the manner in which the Littles (particularly Greg) did it. The crap GL pulled on us was right on the level of Irsay moving the Colts to Indianapolis overnight - a total snow job. This happens at every school. Weis now has a reputation as a loud-mouthed, complaining, blowhard. Now, combine that with the fact that he coaches at a school that everyone hates because they never accomplish anything and no one will feel sorry for you.

Just wait until the nsbb/gateway draft, when these guys are going in the seventh or eighth round. it's ridiculous.

im excited because we will have extra time to analyze the first day, since it's just five rounds, and on the second day, which is usually a bunch of roster fillers highlighted by a pick here or there, will have added importance.

Jesus christ I'm sick of hearing about Notre Dame. Never has a team accomplished so little and been talked about so [expletive] much. Charlie Weis is fat and stupid and I hope he chokes on a sub sandwich or something and Notre Dame has to hire a coach that doesn't open his stupid mouth all the time.
