  1. Lumbus is a term of affection. I will stop. I appreciate the endearment, I've just never heard that particular nickname
  2. Rosenbloom with the most sour grapes article I've read in a long time http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/rosenblog/ct-blackhawks-trade-saad-rosenbloom-20150701-column.html *southparkfartsniffer.jpg*
  3. His mindset was probably that someone has to lose, so maybe we can gain ground on somebody. In which case he should root for a four game sweep by St Louis
  4. Pretty good last four days. Would have been nice if the Pirates lost one but I'm not going to complain since they just lost 5 of 6 to the Nats and Reds. Picked up three games on each the Cards, Giants and Mets. The Cards/Pirates have a 4-game series after we play the Cards next week, so it's a good opportunity to gain some ground. Isn't the opposite true? Unless the Cubs for 4-0 during that same stretch (and the Cards/Bucs split), they aren't going to gain much ground
  5. Saad signs six year extension with the CBJ. I didn't see any disclosed terms
  6. Lumbus? staap
  7. I'm finding that on iPhone, the site "hangs" when loading pages. I click a link, the page loads about 15%, hangs for 5-10 seconds, then finishes loading. It's not all the time, but it's happening more often than not (and doesn't happen on any other sites I frequent)
  8. Also, whining about an online community has never worked in the history of online communities
  9. its not that i hate it here... more the opposite people hate me here lol No, people are annoyed that you showed up, threads a-blazin', before taking time to learn what NSBB was all about. Then, when posters voiced their annoyances, you upped the volume rather than stepping back and figuring out why they were annoyed
  10. keep discouraging new people from joining the forum Yes, PLEASE do. Why does a good Cubs team encourage a bunch of sad sacks to join message boards?
  11. Matt Cain, Jose Fernandez and Matt Moore are all pitching today. None have pitched in over a year
  12. I wish there was a filter on this new board software that hid every post bitching about bad strike zones
  13. I think shedding Anisimov's contract gives them enough space. The Jackets just gave out a bunch of extensions last year, so I don't think they have tons of cap space, but I haven't looke that closely this off season
  14. I would be if I was you. Dano is going to be good. Tropp.....eh. Anisimov was a bigger part of the team a few seasons ago, but between Johansen 's breakout and Dubinsky moving from wing to center, he's dropped to a 3rd liner
  15. So I take it I should be happy with this trade
  16. Bringing an infant to a game (or a movie, or an amusement park, or.....) seems like more trouble than it's worth, but as long as said infant doesn't actively ruin my experience, who cares?
  17. They had the NCAA game on at the bar last night, and I was amazed at how infrequently they stopped play. Players were constantly knocking each other down, getting tripped up, etc. and the refs just let them play. The contrast to FIFA was startling
  18. Neck tattoo can join the Cardinals in Hell jpg any day he wants
  19. Why? Because they let Arrieta pitch 9 innings in a blow out
  20. As a Cubs fan, I hate you. You fan of death. You supporter of pure evil. And I hate Wong because of his batting stance. It annoys me to look at. Isn't Wong's stance just a lefty version of Castro/Soler?
  21. Talk to me about Payl Bittner. Jackets just selected him and he played in the Hawks minors
  22. Because every pitcher has X number of pitches per season, and you don't want to run out before September :roll:
