  1. It's amazing. He almost threw a no hitter against the Cubs when he played for the Phillies. He held them practically hitless his last against the Cubs and now he is on that track today. I don't even think he flirted with a no hitter against another team.
  2. I just got back home and turned on the game. Wow, Dusty has more man love for Neifi than I thought. And in other news, it is good to see the Cubs are resuming their non hitting ways with a lefty in particular Milton. How has Mamol looked so far?
  3. I think my family bought everything that was Sox related. Thankfully they are not hillbillys otherwise couple that with the whole Sox fan thing and I might be spending holidays alone. Actually they aren't far from where you live if you're in Evergreen Park. Thankfully the Bears/Packers were on Christmas night because for some reason I'm thinking if they were not we would have been watching the White Sox world championship DVD. :roll:
  4. A lot of Twins fans take exception to the fact that they took Mauer as a way of saving money or gauranteeing signability. I got lambaster by a barage of Twins fans on Twins.com(this was before I realized there were good baseball websites outside of the MLB ones) for bringing that up. They argued that they wanted Mauer from the get go and that Twins management would have been chastised for passing on Mauer, local kid. I thought I would throw this in here because it came quickly to mind when I read your post.
  5. I don't think I saw this posted, but Rudy Guiliani's investment/ownership group is one of the groups who has asked that Ernie Banks be the part of their group in seeking to purchase the Cubs. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060610/sp_nm/baseball_cubs_dc_1
  6. More from redszone.com.................. "I wish someone on the Reds staff would put one right in Zambrano's ear hole when he bats....lets see if he bit's that upper lip and pumps that fist...he is bush league. Needs an attitude adjustment bigtime."
  7. At redszone.com they are beside themselves in the gamethread. They are arguing whether they should have brought their closer Coffey in or not against Barrett. And they are upset about to losing to the "Royals errrr Cubs"
  8. GRand Slam Barrett!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. Homer by Rolen in the Cards game. Cards beating Milwaukee 3-0 in the top of the third with no outs.
  10. Did he foul tip that? It didn't seem like it.
  11. I just stated it was a bad resume' in terms of MLB.
  12. If the trade helps or could possibly help the Cubs the trade needs to be made even if that trade in some way improves the Sox or presents the Sox with possible talent. I live in Chicago and have my entire life. Beyond that my entire family are White Sox fans. The exceptions being myself and my father. We hear non stop from my uncles and cousins about the great 2005 and now 2006 White Sox. We are forced to wallow in the Cubs' misery. On Christmas my father and I had to sit there as my family members were wearing Chicago White Sox Santa Claus caps. Yes these: http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/Niner74/SoxSantaHat.jpg Beyond that I work on the southside and am constantly reminded that I am a Cub fan as they laugh that jovial laugh. All this and I still believe that if there is a benefit for the Cubs or a risk that is worth taking for the Cubs then they should go ahead and make the move even if it helps out the White Sox. By the way, Garland was excellent for the Sox last year and in particular in the playoffs. But, re signing him to the contract they just did in the off season may hamper them in future signings. This re signing may be something that haunts Kenny Williams if he keeps up the way he has this year.
  13. When did Dave Chappelle join the Colorado Rockies???
  14. Wow, from the Cubs (a pathetic team) to Florida (young but bad right now) to KC (well, just a lost cause).
  15. I was watching "Chicago Tonight" a while back(last summer, I think) when Bob Sirott was still hosting and he had a chat with the managing editor(I think was his title) of Crane's Chicago Business who was a frequent guest on the show. Anyways they were talking about the speculation of the Tribune selling the Cubs. And this guest went on to say that the selling of the Cubs is far from unfathomable. Bob Sirott questioned the motive to sell when they have made such a profit in the purchase just as you stated, "21 million in 1981 and now they're worth over 500 million". The guest From Crane's Chicago Business explained that as long as the Cubs keep the team it is just that......a number. If it is/was about money than they would/will just cash in that cow(i.e. sell).
  16. I wouldn't be surprised if you don't see Mr. Cub at the park for a while. They'll probably want to keep him away to avoid speculation.
  17. That's what I thought right after finding out the thread wasn't about Philip. Is that a Fresh Prince reference? :shock:
  18. Cubs win....Cubs win!!!!!! How in the world??????????????????????????
  19. Alright the Cubs will get a chance to walk off the field in complete humiliation. WooHoo one out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. Why do the Reds keep wanting to "clog" the bases?
  21. All in the master plan. that walk to load the bases just "clogged" them bases. Baker knows what he is doing. :lol:
  22. Why does Dave Otto need binoculars in the booth?
