    I posted this in the Trachsel thread, but I'll post it here too. From the Trib:
  4. Banedon
    Well this is somewhat encouraging from the Trib... If that's what he's used for...I'll cope.
  5. Banedon
    If they give up very little, and make this deal specifically for this purpose, I would be ok with it.
  6. Banedon
    Nah. It won't happen during the season.
  7. Banedon
    Um...why? Who would he replace? The only way I'd be interested is if we could give them Marquis and then dump Trachsel after the season.
  8. Banedon
    Or maybe he should wear them... Anyway, I specifically went back through this thread to make sure that someone made this joke. I feel much better now that I know someone did.
  9. Banedon
    The Cardinals disagree.

    bad pickoff throw Hmm..ok...cuz it said fielding error on Piniero so I was confused.
  11. Banedon
    Ok, Pence singled and got to third on a fielding error on Piniero...anyone watching that can explain what happened?

    You're right. People booed because they all hate Bob Uecker and think he's the devil. It had nothing to do with the fans wanting to uphold a tradition and think it's wrong for a competing team's broadcaster to sing the stretch. You mean it was wrong for Vin Scully and Jack Buck to sing it as well? They should expect to get booed if they do.

    Banedon replied to Rob's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    I agree, but I don't think having Uek sing the stretch is same thing as say having Mike Krukow sing the stretch. Uek transcends the booth and is a beloved personality well beyond it, particulalry to people who grew up during the 80's and feel that Major League is one of the three greatest sports movies ever made (like me). Don't boo Uek because he was funny in Major League? Look I know he's a good guy, and he's very fun to listen to, and he's one of the great announcers in the game. But I don't care what great guy is up there...if he's singing the 7th inning stretch and shouting another teams name, he deserves what he gets. He knew what was coming, I promise you that. Booing opposing teams and their representatives is a part of sports. I don't have a problem with it, and I don't think it's representative of a lack of class.

    I hope he keeps it up so we can sell high this offseason.

    Lee worries me more than Ramirez. Ramirez is playing through a couple of injuries, and admits he's not 100%. Lee though has had his spurts, but he just hasn't had the consistent power since his wrist injury. I'm concerned it's going to have a more long term effect.

    Mike Golic predicted this morning that the Cards will win the NL Central.

    I think it's silly to have other broadcasters sing the 7th inning stretch. Of course that's going to be the reaction...especially when the game means something. Short of eliminating the guest conductors, they should at the very least not allow opposing team representatives to sing the stretch. Let them throw out a first pitch or something like that.
  18. Banedon
    Isn't calling it the "worst post I have ever heard of in my life" a bit of hyperbole as well? Just sayin.
  19. Banedon
    Different defaults. There's instructions on WCFB on how to change the look under social (or is it site suggestions?). http://www.windycityfootball.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=91

    There's some crossover, but I don't see where the other games thread causes any harm.

    Hope you made it over last night - it was a great night for baseball and the Chiefs looked as good last night as I've seen them in a while! I was there...but having a 9month old there didn't exactly make for paying as much attention to the game as I normally would like. I'm stunned we didn't get wet though. Pretty much the entire rest of the state got rained on.
  22. Banedon
    I watching the weather to see whether or not I'm gonna bother driving to Peoria tonight...I'm not terribly optimistic about this game being played.
  23. Banedon
    How so?
  24. Banedon
    Yes, and deals without waivers can be made October 1st, so they will complete the deal between the 1st and the 15th. Gotcha. Didn't realize that...thanks.
  25. Banedon
    So....non-fiction. He said requirements. Can't those be classified as fiction a lot of times? Excellent point.
