  1. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/columnists/ct-spt-0328-pompei-bears-chicago--20120328,0,5548559.column really
  2. the talent level in the cubs system has improved. not because THEO hath graced us with his presence, but because he and his team have added quality talent to the system since they've arrived. i think the question on everyone's minds is how well we will be able to convert talent into results through this regime's efforts at development. we won't really have a reliable answer until this draft class starts to blossom.
  3. I hope like hell you gave this its due diligence: A small but meaningful alter no larger then 1/2 the size of your abode complete with prayer wheels, incense, dried flower offerings and a kneeling pad. Don't piss off this baseball deity. wekse and yeti smoked all his sage sticks at the last cubs @ reds game
  4. that's just hurtful and mean.
  5. The Cubs have no track record. "The Cubs" track record has to be differentiated by who was running them. You can't look at the Cubs organization right now and say "they have a history of developing some pitchers but no hitters" just because that is was the Andy MacPhail era Cubs did. OK. Like I said, I'm cautiously optimistic. I suppose my main problem is that the change in leadership is significant of nothing until they show they can produce players like they did in the past. I don't think changing leadership automatically means the Cubs system is that much better than it was a year ago. It seems to me that a lot of people are giving really rosy prognostications simply because Theo/Hoyer are now running the show. that's prognosti- oh wait you spelled that right what about your boy lahair?
  6. wait where are the lasers?
  7. it's good to have him back
  8. way to suck at trampolines
  9. it's conceivable that keith could sit the rest of the season. i thought his hearing was at one, but nothing has been announced yet.
  10. at least they got lahair
  11. Maybe not tonight but he's been pretty good since he came here from what I've seen. Not great, but certainly good enough for a 2nd or 3rd pairing defenseman. Eddie O was on the Score today and he mentioned that during the losing streak, Q was telling his guys to cheat a little bit on the defensive end to create more odd man rushes/offensive chances, etc. with the idea of ourscoring the opponent, but going onto that West trip we ran into some pretty good defenses who shut us down and really burned us. Since then the Hawks have been doing a lot less of that and have obviously seen better results. I dunno how much of that is the reason why we're playing better. I'm sure it is part of the reason, but to me the main reason might be as simple as good goaltending vs. bad goaltending. Can it even be explained? At the exact time they should have packed it in, with their best player gone and not returning on schedule, with no reason to expect anything at all..........they're suddenly playing like the best team in the league. It's fantastical and grand. i think hitting rock bottom was what it took. we'll see if this is a mirage or if they keep this up and toews returns to pile on, but they are definitely playing much, much better in important ways
  12. i think it's 515 dufus
  13. the only cool skeleton shirt is the spinal tap glowing skeleton shirt i think this shirt is a great way to out yourself as one of those crying-in-the-stands, show-up-early-for-the-old-style-visor-giveaway kind of cubs fan. how poetic that the BELIEVE* is wedged into the upper spine, eliminating communication between the brain and the rest of the body. the brain keeps chugging along thinking that everything it's doing is right, when in fact, the body's reactions are bouncing back against the BELIEVE*. the brain thinks, "hey, i'm just going to keep reading bleed cubbie blue, going to games, and pounding hot dogs and $8 miller lite's," when in fact, the heart has turned blue and developed spots on each hemisphere from all of the abuse. *- [expletive] kill me
  14. why would anyone buy that
  15. oh [expletive] a
