  5. I'm not sure what makes Sunday a big game.
  6. More than that, he's one of the few players on the Cubs that may be worth something right now. I'm getting pretty damn close to just saying blow the whole thing up.
  7. Nationally televised network failure >>>>> WGN Superstation failure
  8. That's happened a lot lately Todd. They all look like buzz saws against us.
  9. That sounds mildly entertaining in a weird way.
  10. cheapseats, I'm not going to get to watch the game for another 20 minutes or so. Can you tell me.....hows the FIRE! and INTENSITY! look out there today?
  11. Since I've been a negative nancy lately, I'll say we're gonna lose.
  12. Isn't this Sharon Pannozzo's job? Or was Jim just filling in for that woman who left for another job? Jack of all trades, master of none. Possibly. I don't know all the Cubs media relations job descriptions and what not, but to argue that Jones should have talked to Sullivan himself is wrong.
  13. No, it's not Jones's job to correct this. I completely disagree. He should never, ever deal with a reporter in an adversarial situation. Jones should let the media relations staff deal with this. If the staff dealt with it, and they felt it was still unresolved to their satisfaction, then Hendry approaching Sullivan might be appropriate. But without knowing the chain of events and conversations, I don't think it's fair to cast judgment on Hendry. And, I don't blame Sullivan for leaking it, by the way. There's a reason you don't pick fights with people who buy ink by the barrell. I think this is a unique situation because they both work for the same company, though. I think someone with less juice within the organization probably would have been a better choice to confront Sullivan (if, in fact, it was erroneous-which is debatable), because there is certainly a conflict of interest here and an unstable power breakdown. You really want a player going after the media? Like Mercker did with Steve Stone, by calling the booth? Wasn't players worrying about the media part of what fans were upset about with past seasons?
  14. It would just be much more impressive if he actually had someone good against lefties to platoon him with.
  15. http://cover6.cduniverse.com/MuzeAudioArt/110/112888.jpg
  16. 3 second baseman in the lineup. Weeeeeee.
  17. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with timing. With the Cubs in the middle of an absolutely terrible stretch, I think the prevailing feeling is that Hendry's energies could be better spent on fixing the team than worrying about the papers. But I see your point.
  18. Do you have more information about this than we do, because we'd love to hear about it. Since Sullivan said it on the radio (according to a post earlier in the thread) that this was over a Jacque Jones article, is there a reason we shouldn't believe that?
  19. If I apologize for the fact that I'm out of shape and lazy, can I play 2B, Dusty? I've been a trueblue Cubs fan for longer than you.
  20. That sounds about right. And yes, in the Daily Herald he said he "needs Ramirez's defense" at 3rd. Which amuses me, because don't we have Neifi because he can catch the ball? We sure don't have him for his bat!
  21. I'm already just about as embarrassed as I can be to be a Cubs fan. Not sure this series can do much to make that worse.
