unlike past years, losing to the Soxdoesn't bother me this season. They are in so many ways superior that it's nearly a foregone conclusion we'll lose.
May I suggest that the Cubs simply don't show up tomorrow? The forfeit will go down at a 9-0 loss, but that's probably better than the blood bath that would happen if they actually played
Yeah, I don't see it. You aren't allowed to talk about Dusty in a thread that doesn't have Dusty in the title? Dusty and Neifi are tied at the hip. It's hard to discuss either one without bringing up the other. I meant that it has veered entirely away from Neifi and into JR's opinions of Dusty (and other people's opinions about the opinions)
I'm sure you realize, of course, that this won't happen. Yes, I do. They'll do whatever they can to get 15 second basemen involved in the game. but not Theriot
You do know that Maddux won't be batting today, don't you? I'd rather have him hit that Neifi :D Chicks dig the longball. Maddux hits for himself (instead of using the DH) and bats 5th. 2 for 4 with a HR and 5 rbi
I have a theory. Perhaps the Cubs have an Intellivision in the clubhouse where they play Major League Baseball. On that game you could bunt a home run. No joke.
I'm glad we miss Vazquez, and who knows how Contreras will do coming off the DL. Is the second game Garcia or Garland? Clearly Jon would be better than Freddy
plus Hendry isn't going to go on the public airwaves and throw his bench under the bus. Of course he's going to say he's satisfied with it. You expect him to say "I really screwed this one up guys. These players aren't worth their weight in crap."
Ruth also played in an ERA with sone HUGE ballparks. The polo grounds was 480 ft. to center. the original Yankee Stadium configuration was something like 470 to left center.
then he hit a second homerun that collided with the first over his home country, shattering the ball into thousands of baseballs which rained down and filled the youngsters with wonder and love for the game of baseball (which Albert invented after inventing his time machine and travelling back to the 19th century)
