  1. Is Lou determined to give Harden 5 days rest from here on out? Do we need 8 starters on this team?
  2. Probably not considering they've sold over 30,000 tickets for it
  3. how long before someone pinch-hits for the game thread?
  4. who's the chick with the maniacal laughter?
  5. I say good for him. After the hell he went through after 2003, I would probably tell anybody wishing to cash in on it to go eff themselves too. Not everyone is an opportunistic attention whore. I admire his ability to separate himself from the incident despite everyone's desire to not let it go
  6. 1 - GoCubsGo!'s pet nicknames for everyone he hates have never been funny. They add nothing to your argument and make you look twelve. 2 - I don't understand why you guys gang up on RedIvyCub every time she posts here. Is it because she tells you something you don't want to hear? How do you so casually dismiss the fact that she was working in the front office every day and maybe, just maybe, has a firmer grasp on the inner workings of baseball than you do? It's embarrassing how you guys treat her.
  7. You don't know what any of them are going to vote. None of us do but I strongly suspect that Cuban will not get a 75% yes vote from the good old boys club. the "good old boys" will vote yes for an owner that will make them more money
  8. it's one year after the day he signs I believe
  9. 75% "yes" votes mean a minimum of 23 owners. I can't name one (besides Reinsdorf) who would absolutely vote no for a sale to Cuban.
  10. More than an hour away, right? Not that late. We normally get them in exactly 1 hour before the game. And right now its a good 1 hours and 10 minutes plus remaining. my mistake. i was thinking 2 hours
  11. some late arriving lineups tonight
  12. I like seeing them show-up and reading the stories, but the minute-by-minute updates of practice, and fan reaction to practice, is a bit much. It would be impossible not to follow it at all until September though. i'll take nightly updates or newspaper snippets. That said, I don't even watch pre-season NFL games. They are the most boring thing in sports
  13. this is why i don't bother following the NFL until September. I don't have the constitution to hang on every update from day one of training camp
  14. Can you and Derwood just put each other on ignore already? The snide remarks back and forth are getting really old. I thought I WAS ignoring him
  15. imagine if Dusty got his hands on Sabathia. He'd pitch him in back to back starts
  16. I beg to differ. Roy is definately worth 5-7 players HANDS DOWN. is Roy better than Rich Harden, who only cost 4 players (and Chad Gaudin came in the same deal?) Think about it dude
  17. I know I say this every trade thread, but it will not take 5-7 players to get anyone
  18. That goes down as one of the biggest pieces of ass-hattery by any manager ever
  19. do you drive up from Indiana every game?
  20. I don't think i'd even remember Bartman if ESPN had just ignored that play
  21. i'd argue that NSBB'ers actually undervalue the Cubs prospects (as illustrated by the number of trade proposals made that include us sending 7 players for one mediocre veteran)
  22. Howry gives up hits but doesn't walk people. Wuertz walks too many. So do you want the guy with the 1.38 WHIP or the 1.45 WHIP? Either one is a lousy option
  23. little kids are resiliant. it's amazing. If that ball hit some 45 year old lady she'd have permanent brain damage
  24. Can't really tip your pitches if you throw only 1 pitch so then, yes, he is
