  1. That was excellent. What are the chances a 3rd team gets in on this, and if so, who would be likely suitors?
  2. They probably have at least some of the post still attached.
  3. It's just grass and cement blocks. Who cares. I think a lot of people would have wanted some Wrigley grass. Additionally, the goal post anchors: who knows if someone wanted them or not? Perhaps it would have been possible to reuse them. You can always throw it away, but if you throw it away, you can't put it to good use. They should have at least seen if someone had any interest or ideas of what to do with them. I don't understand why someone would want 90-year-old concrete. You don't think someone out there would pay decent money for the goal post anchors with 50 years of Bears history? Seriously. It doesn't even matter if anyone pays for them. Heck, drop them in the park next to Soldier Field, stick a plaque on it, and voila! public history/memorial/art. That's a lot better than sitting in a trash heap.

  5. Aww... if Rich were animated and a sloth, he would look identical to that!
  6. Is anyone else dismayed that they just threw away the sod and the goalpost anchors? It would have been real cool if someone preserved that.
  7. I don't think they are lowering it, just leveling it out. The story said that they are removing 14 inches of material, installing a drainage system, then adding 14 inches of material. yea, but where does it drain to? Have you thought about that? Into a 60,000 gallon reservoir and into the municipal system.

  9. Also a good idea.
  10. That's cool that they're leveling it out rather than dropping it down.
  11. That and either shorten the season or voluntarily schedule double-headers. Or play the entire thing at a neutral site. In a dome, the outside weather won't matter.
  12. That's unpossible.
  13. I'd go a step further and call it a good idea. By increasing the number of games, you increase the likelihood that the better team will win.
  14. If we don't get Kobe I'm going to be severely disappointed, whether it's a reasonable reaction or not.
  15. Hmm, driving up pitch counts in order to burn through the pitcher... I think you might be on to something. Your specific plan seems easier said than done though, no matter how genius it is.
  16. That Gameday game is going to be so awesome. I can't wait.
  17. I discovered a solution to this problem: your mouse. Just kidding. I almost never use keyboard commands. Never really got into them. But I tested it and it does work for me, both on Firefox and IE.
  18. Meph's Special People For Sure. Wait, what are your special people and why are they special? And my amazement continues unabated.
  19. For comedic value alone, I hope they pick Girardi.
  20. I'm liking Vance's Bonds idea. An OF of Soriano/Pie/Bonds/Murton would be sick. Especially when Pie breaks the learning curve and starts doing to ML pitching what he did to AAA pitching. Bonds would sit enough to still give Big Murt some playing time, that is, as long as Lou doesn't get all Angel Pagan on us. Let Cedeno get his shot at SS, and I think with all this stuff combined we could probably compete with the Crew next year, though, barring major changes, I can see them improving at least 5 games next year.
  21. Psh, firefighters come and go. There is only one Dave Grohl.
  22. I want the Rockies to win so I voted Red Sox in 6.
