  1. Aren't you still getting the Center Ice package free preview? I'm pretty sure I am on Dish.
  2. Amen
  3. I'm ready for the OLine to start run blocking so we can get Forte producing. I liked Kyle Orton and thought he could have been more successful if he had some better WR's to throw to, but thank God for Jay Cutler.
  4. 6-1 since he was suspended? Addition by subtraction? Coincidence? Change in team chemistry? Small sample size?
  5. I was at a bar watching the game with a Giants fan. :good:
  6. Just saw this floating out there on the Trib's site.
  7. Flash in the pan. He blows worst first round pick ever. Drew Hall, Ty Griffin, and Earl Cunningham say hi. As do Lou Montanez, Bobby Brownlie, Ryan Harvey, and Mark Pawalek. Was Gary Scott a first rounder? And I still remember all the Earl Cunningham rookie cards I had. :bye:
  8. I heard Lee was going to have off-season neck replacement surgery. Ex-NFL player Merton Hanks has been selected as the donor.
  9. Well I'm happy to see that Milton offered up an apology, but I wonder how genuine it really is. We can't really expect him to come back next year and be a different person. He is who he is and if he's not performing he is going to cause problems. If he is performing, he would be a huge part of this team. But is that a risk the Cubs can take? I don't know.
  10. Fire Von Joshua, hire Milton's mom. Problem solved. But seriously, I think the whole family is bat s**t crazy.
  11. "Right side" =/= arm or shoulder issues, right? Or am I reading that wrong?
  12. I don't think that is it at all. I think most people see think the racism excuse is a cop out. I don't for a second doubt that Bradley was subject to some racism. What he said. Where in Chicago did you live? I grew up in the NW suburbs. Well no wonder you never saw racism, the people you grew up with have never seen a black person. I figured something asinine like this was coming. That's not the case at all, but it sounds like you already have your mind made up so I won't even waste my time arguing this point.
  13. Im pretty sure that not everyone of his teammates like him and his antics, showing them up, etccc. Lets ask Michael Barret his opinion, or the countless number of OF's hes showed up. Michael Barrett is his teammate? When did the Cubs reacquire him?
  14. I don't think that is it at all. I think most people see think the racism excuse is a cop out. I don't for a second doubt that Bradley was subject to some racism. What he said. Where in Chicago did you live? I grew up in the NW suburbs. And before it gets asked, I've lived in the Dallas suburbs here (north Dallas area and now between Dallas & Ft. Worth).
  15. Do Zambrano's teammates not like him? Would they be happier if he were gone?
  16. I must have grown up in bizarro Chicago or something. I'm not saying I never heard anything racist in my 18 years there, but I never heard the N word used so causually as I did when I moved to Texas. And even in my early days in the Chicago area it was usually an older person using the word in reference to an object or action. In Texas it's used in reference to people.
  17. i like how people are so adamant that there's no racism going on among the 40,000 mostly white and drunk fans. Who said there was no racism? I'm sure there's racism at 100% of major league ballparks. But he makes it seem like he is Jackie Robinson in 1950's America and that's just not the case. no he's saying that he heard racist things yelled and him and apparently his kid, which i don't doubt. you're the one saying he is making it seem like jackie robinson in 1950s america. So you believe that his 3-year old kid was racially taunted by Cubs fans????

  19. Maybe even Placido Domingo.
  20. The fact that DeRo is not an a-hole has to tip the scales in his direction.
  21. Let me be the first to call BS on this one. I don't deny that racism still exists, but I can't possibly imagine a racial slur against a 3-year old kid. I doubt the type of people yelling out racial slurs are going to know what Bradley's [expletive] kid looks like. Where did he have his kid sitting anyways? The bleachers? As long as his kid was in the stadium, there is a 100% chance that he was racially taunted. In fact, I've heard that the Cubs have licensed their logo to a KKK hood making company and they expect it to be a best seller.
  22. Stop reading Rick Reilly. Seriously. His picture is in the dictionary next to the definition for "douchebag".
  23. He acted like a baby about the move to 3B when their GM told him about it. One meeting with Nolan Ryan and MY was all for the move. True story, look it up.
  24. I decided to give Marisa Miller another chance. She effed it up once by pretending like she didn't know me when I showed up at her photo shoot.
