  1. This isn't a political race. Ricketts & Co. do not need to hear references before acknowledging the existence of a former player.
  2. The Cubs were over .500 for a couple days?
  3. I think this. There's gotta be a reason that many ex-players aren't openly campaigning for his return. You can't have so many silent people that were on the inside (ownership and FO obviously gone) be this quiet on the Cubs not inviting back their best player of this generation without having a decent reason for doing so. And if there isn't, well god dammit. IMO, it's telling that Kerry (by all accounts, a pretty decent fella) still has some sort of grudge towards Sammy after 10 years, whether it's the cork issue, moping about batting 6th, clubhouse differences, or whatever. I'd like to see Sammy come back eventually, but i'd be really surprised if there wasn't more to the story than we're led to believe. And as mentioned previously, if there isn't, well....sigh. What do you mean more? We know he annoyed a lot of his former teammates. Sandberg doesn't like him, Wood didn't like him, Grace didn't like him. This is all documented. I would not expect former teammates to lobby for the guy. I would expect a rational organization to ignore the lack of campaigning and do what is right.
  4. Huhhhhhh? Huh? What? Hossa has been non-existent? He did have one assist last night...but that's the only points he's had the whole series. Sharp has had 0 points. I want them to score. Hossa has been a great 2-way player this series. He has made a difference. I haven't noticed Sharp much.

  6. Ok then...banter. Whatever. The point is that Peggy Kusinski didn't think it was Kane's first playoff OT winner, and Kane played it off. Right, the point is it wasn't a joke. She was trying to ask about his history of OT goals without just asking about his history of OT goals; she thought she was being clever or something.
  7. I think it's more embarrassing that deadspin didn't get the joke. I don't get the joke. It's just a wink and a nod type of thing. That isn't a joke.
  8. How could they be on any terms at all, aside from Ricketts judging him from afar. Sosa left in 2004 and his contract ended in 2005. Ricketts wasn't even in negotiations to buy the team then. Unless Sammy banged his wife.

  10. does versteeg know where he is?
  11. I think Kerry Wood doesn't like Sosa (wasn't he the one who smashed Sammy's boombox?) I think this is a big part of the problem. If true, then Kerry needs to get the [expletive] over it like a grownup. Wood wasn't even there today. If he influences which players the organization maintains ties with this is evenly more poorly run than I thought.
  12. oh goody, now I can't watch blackhawks
  13. It was like a month ago I think.
  14. Yup. Very bizarre that they did this. Perhaps that was one of the reasons there were so many delays. CBS is contractually obligated to feature an AFC team in its broadcast. That is no longer the case. Just for Thanksgiving and Saturday?? Every other CBS game involves an AFC road team.

  16. Bears/Lions is listed as CBS. That is odd, usually TDAy features one AFC team at DET/DAL to play on CBS, right?
  17. Ricketts is going to need Bud to bail him out on stadium issue. Either with a loan or borrowing some of Loria's thugs. So he has to talk bad about Sosa unit that happens.
  18. I get a full Sunday slate to watch, which is nice. But attending MNF is terrible.
  19. What if the reason everybody is tanking is because they hate him for wanting out so bad?
