    this is something i've wondered about as well. this doesn't make sense at all. i mean, obviously this would have happened by now if it was possible, but why the hell can't we just give csn and wgn some huge pile of cash tomorrow in exchange for letting us go get 100 million a season or whatever from what the new deal would be? even if ricketts really is rubbing nickels together to heat up his ramen while living in the visitors' clubhouse, this seems like the easiest investment ever for some other rando to wander into. give tom the buyout upfront, get all the money back plus whatever you want in a month when the cubs sign a new tv deal. The biggest problem is that the organization most likely to parter with the team to form a Cubs only network is Comcast, which is already their partner in CSN Chicago. Plus, Reinsdorf is a partner in that deal (accounting for 2/5 entities in the Cubs/Sox/Hawks/Bulls/Comcast partnership). There just isn't enough motivation for the parties to agree to a deal, without a huge payoff, and Ricketts can't afford a huge payoff.

    What sort of extremist activity are these crowds partaking in?
  3. jersey cubs fan
    I like gold at these levels.

    Yeah, big fans of both. Those are my 2 favorite QBs after the 2nd round. People are really talking up Garropolo as maybe a late 1st/early 2nd round pick (all 32 teams have gone to see EIU play already this year), but that's not going to happen unless most of the big names stay in school. I've heard Matthews as early as 4th round, but he looks to be a 5th or 6th rounder. Ewww, a Cornell QB? No thanks.

    In fairness, he may not have used the word "home", that bit I was paraphrasing. He seemed to cover that portion of news just fine, but then he spiraled into making this the latest disaster for him in a long line, which was where he lost me. It's been a pretty crappy year in the Jorge Soler developmental process. Not sure there's anyway around that one.

    OH [expletive] YES! I did not realize you were on our team too. Team "cheapassnotipper" that is, proud?

    Chain smoking will do that If anything I think he's maintained his looks from the 80s very well for a chain smoker with a high stress job.

    My opinion of him as a hitter is that he could be a really good one but he does actually have to start hitting for a lot more power if he is going to be considered a big power bat. And he's going to have to be a big power bat if he has any chance to have a major league career. The 450 SLG this year just wasn't that impressive from a guy who needs to make it as a DH. Give his numbers to a competent fielding 3B and I'm a lot more excited. But he has no value as a player except for what he can do as a hitter, so he has to be better than typical prospects with the bat to compete with them in rankings.

    He's a guy worth keeping an eye on but he still needs to break out in a big way offensively to really change people's opinion's on his future.
  11. jersey cubs fan
    strong taek
  12. jersey cubs fan
    Wait, more serious than baseball fans who argue over how true of a fan they are, or football fans who try to out intensify each other?
  13. jersey cubs fan
    Is he saying something about McClellin keeping contain on the edge, since he's always 10 yards away from the QB?
  14. jersey cubs fan
    Humble If she takes it all away, he still has basketball.
  15. jersey cubs fan
    I said the same thing about the Redskins late in the game.
  16. jersey cubs fan
    he is very serious about taking over Jordan's legacy.
  17. jersey cubs fan
    Also Well, they have to cut somebody to sign a new QB. They also aren't scheduled to practice all week, so maybe they are just concerned about missing one another.
  18. jersey cubs fan
    Yeah, I think Emery is all about the draft. I would be shocked if he traded away anything but a 7th rounder for any current player.
  19. jersey cubs fan
    Well, not "any hopes", but losing to the Redskins just shows they are capable of losing to any team left on the schedule. Detroit could put 50 points on the board. That's the game that probably determines the 2nd WC.
  20. jersey cubs fan
    Just came to post this as well. It will be interesting to hear his reasons. Probably related to the fact that he is 68 years old.
  21. jersey cubs fan
    that never works
  22. jersey cubs fan
    Away, you keep forgetting to say away.(ryno when he called his neighbors to check on his family)
  23. jersey cubs fan
    I don't know why they don't do it more often, at least on sweeps and things where they're going to be forced out for 5 yard losses (not while they're being dragged down) And NW looks broken. You'd get illegal man downfield almost every time.
  24. jersey cubs fan
    There's around 20 pitchers total in baseball that you can feel confident will start 20+ with an era around 3.00. And Shark isn't even one of them Define "around"
  25. jersey cubs fan
    Will Leitch is the absolute worst.
