Man, your posts are real jerky today. Define hate for me and I'll tell you if it applies to Edmonds. I don't like him and that doesn't change because he's now a Cub. There have been several Cubs over the years that I didn't like - just b/c I want the team to win doesn't mean I like each player. Do you like Jim Hendry? Edmonds falls below wife beaters and child molesters on my list of hate. But he's on the list. I just don't get why this is such a big deal to you. You think I'm stupid and need to get a life because I don't like Jim Edmonds? Right back at you, can we move on now? sure. if you want to live your life shaking your fist at clouds like grandpa simpson, it's certainly your right.
-
you're right...you can hate him if you want. but it sounds like you live a terrible existence.
-
tim, remember when you said i couldn't count on dempster to be my #5? you were right...he's more of a #1/#2.
-
is your own life really so pathetic that you need to revel in other people's misfortune? maybe if you had more going on in your life, you would receive pleasure from things other than the professional and health-related setbacks of complete strangers. Yes it is. I have nothing going on in my life, and therefore I revel in the injuries of professional baseball players. Please help me, king of the internet message board. Or maybe you and your arrogant and pathetic personal attacks can just shove it. two whole days and that's the best zinger you could come up with? weak.
-
yeah, it is hard to understand. some of you need to get a life. you HATE someone because he stares at his homeruns and dives in the outfield? HATE?? seriously, HATE?? not because he's a wife beater or a child molestor, but because he played for the cardinals and argued balls and strikes? get a hold of yourself, my goodness.
-
because it's stupid to hate someone you don't know. you just don't like him because he used to play for the cardinals.
-
if you're going to whine about this deal, please whine about it on the basis that edmonds sucks and not that you don't like edmonds.

hill to be skipped; injured in 5/16 AAA start
abuck1220 replied to abuck1220's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
he was 57% or so overall, 50% on fastballs (apparently). he was 60% strikes in his first start. -

and a non-strike throwing rich hill is better than a strike-throwing jason marquis. -

abuck1220 replied to abuck1220's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
you know what else isn't a good ratio? the ten baserunners marquis allowed in 5 2/3 last night to the worst offensive team in baseball. or the 1.73 baserunners he has allowed per inning on the season. but i guess as long as those baserunners are getting on via line drives all over the field, it's ok. from the suntimes... -
You had JD pull off a nice start. It may come down to bats this week. We'll see... your staff isn't spectacular, that's for sure. You're talking about Weaver and his 5+ era, but that's not typical of him. Historically (last 2 seasons) he's been very good. I don't know what the ERA fix is, especially this early in the year. AJB is another one that isn't typically as bad as he's been. I'll give you Garza, but AJ and Weaver aren't putting up typical results thus far. well, they sure broke out of it this week. i guess i've never been a big believer in weaver for whatever reason. and people need to stop knocking le douche. he's always been good...he's just doing it as a starter now. show le douche the respect he deserves. enough piling on about my staff...i have four guys in the top 35, which is more than you or tim can say. i think i'm in for a rough one today with halladay going up against the twins...
-
well, that comeback didn't last long. before the week started i conceded that halladay and sheets would own the twins and the dodgers, but i wasn't really counting on three 5.00 erea starters all putting up 20+ point games and jered weaver and matt garza flirting with 30.
-
geez, you're obnoxious. Well, since you volunteered to be such a smart ass without being addressed......your mindless tripe never has any meaningful baseball insight. Have you ever even played the game? Or do you just like watching it in mom's basement? well played. and yes, i have played the game. though i played with a mitt, batting helmet and other modern amenities that i'm sure you had to do without when you played your high school ball in 1916, so i'm sure it's not the same.

i'm pretty sure all latin people are related to each other.

my pitching? my top four starters have 532.5 points. your top four have 450. and while nothing's a given, i don't think anyone would have predicted hill and liriano (my project 2/3/4ish guys) to be in AAA on 5/12. hill especially has killed me.
-
I don't take anymore pleasure in you losing than I do anyone else in my division. It would be interesting to see you and Tim become sellers, because you guys have some good guys to sell. which is why it's very frustrating to be losing. you'd think good guys to sell would = lots of points and victories.
-
i'm glad everyone takes such pleasure in seeing me lose. teix gets hurt and burnett looks like he may be finally getting his act together. seems about right.
-
could be. though you and i both have a number of guys who have been hurt, unexpectedly terrible or both (ie my top three keepers from last year -- rollins, fielder, soriano). by the way, i feel your pain on swisher and verlander. killing me in my other league.
-
and my good fortune continues as teixera leaves with an injury. i like to see my week take a turn for the worse before noon on monday. i'll be replacing him with somebody if he's going to miss time.

i think hill should be starting on friday, but i'd rather have gallagher out there than lieber, so i guess that's something.
-
and [expletive] you tim wakefield. i picked him up in my other league because i needed the start. he shits himself just enough to [expletive] over my other team, but not quite enough to [expletive] over HBC. [expletive].
