    Didn't know there was a fantasy sports forum. Not that its anything to whine about oh wait you just did. I guess it really is a HUGE deal I put it in social rather fantasy sports.

    Seriously we have what five or so posts wasted on criticizing grammar on a freaking message board. Get over it and umm learn to capitalize the beginning of your sentences. It's very distracting :cray: .

    Rockets players = Mine

    yeah I've always done that

    Is there an NSBB league I can't imagine there isn't. If so I call first dibs on open spots if not I'll start one if no one comes forward with a league that has already been running within a week.

    What I take it as is he won't be experimenting. He's not going to start AAA pitchers to see what they can do he'll still start our rotation but have them only go 5 or 6. He won't start every normal starter but he'll start some and won't experiment with the lineup by pointing uys at 3 and 4 who shouldn't be there. They will still play to win they just might not play with a full deck of players.

    You guys are wrong. There are more people who apply to adopt then babies out there. The adoption agencies just don't accept a lot of people. They won't accept single's (which I can see for the most part) they don't accept people unless they make at least middle class money even though a large majority of people grow up in less than middle class (avg. income of U.S. adult is around $43,500 for 2006). In general adoption agencies only accept married, educated, well off couples and every one else gets denied even though that means thousands of kids grow up in some crappy warehouse full of wanted kids that the agency just won't let people adopt. WHy do I know all this? Because I have researched it. I plan on adopting at least one kid once I am married. Ideally I would want a couple of kids with my wife and a couple of adopted kids that of course would be treated as if they were my own. EDIT: Happy now that I got all the right accept's in rather than except.

    I'm sorry but this is wrong. The kid will have no father by age 20 and probably much sooner than that and by age 30 probably no mother too. Sure some people grow up with there parents dying when they are still young and turn out fine but allowing it to happen when you can see it coming it wrong. Plus if he wasn't famous he would never be allowed to adopt at his age. Some couple that would have to be younger just got screwed out of a baby. I'll still say congrats to Ernie but I don't agree with this.

    That was what I thought ... I didn't laugh. It's cool they would do it and love them for it but it wasn't funny.

    Best part is at 2:02 when Soriano hits a homerun where his swing is perfectly synched with the player's in the on deck circle (Theriot?).
  11. CubbieBum
    maybe they fixed it but I don't see anything wrong with the Cubs headlines
  12. CubbieBum
    I don't like rewarding a guy with such a low BA but having 22 more RBI than the next guy and 8 more HR's I think probably should get Howard the award not to mention his team is actually in a playoff race and Pujols isn't. If I vote for a guy not in a playoff race its Hanley Ramirez with a 30-30 season and OBP over .400.
  13. CubbieBum
    See, there's the tempting of fate again. [-( I can't heeeeear yoooou... this thread began with practically nothing about the Cubs so you are the one that brought them into it
  14. CubbieBum
    You have almost 50 points more than me, and I'm 2-0. :P Who cares about points? Just win, baby. :D The guy in first has already stopped checking his team (still got Alex Smith on his team). Make sure he isn't allowed back.
  15. CubbieBum
    in Indiana? it'll still be better than sports radio here next week after O'Sullivan throws 3 TDs and the realization sinks in that the Lions cut their only decent young-ish QB and are left with Orlovsky and Stanton as the defacto "QBs of the future". yes in indiana ... any time the game is mentioned that is what they will talk about, never anything about the actual matchup.

    where Tropicana Field would have had 20,000 Cubs fans booing the Astros aka more than attend Rays games
  17. CubbieBum
    There is a thread with many pages about the site.
  18. CubbieBum
    Well here's the thing...Collins doesn't need to play that well...Your playing the Matt Schaub I pass every time to Andre Johnson have no running game or offensive line Texans. I'm sure the Tennessee which is one of the more underrated defense's will be just fine. That Houston team can be deceptively good though. We haven't seen enough of them to know how good they are this year, but they're almost certainly better than last year. Kerry just needs to manage the game - CJ and LenDale can do the rest. I'm hoping Cortland Finnegan can handle Andre Johnson as well as he's handled Ocho Cinco (still weird saying that) and whoever the top Jag wide receiver is. Yeah thats all I was saying Collins just needs to manage the game well and let the running game take over. More like the defense. That defense is why they can win with a bad offense.

    wow Try putting yourselves in Astros fans shoes. If Chicago was hit by a tornado and hundreds died would you like it if the next game being played in Dallas versus Astros that the Cubs were booed for taking the field?
  20. CubbieBum
    Most of the tripe in newspapers and on TV isn't either. true
  21. CubbieBum
    There are friends and just the people of your city in general. Try not to be so insensative. People died.
  22. CubbieBum
    doesn't change my opinion one bit ... Wrigley is home nothing else will do. Winning a world series = finally being okay with getting rid of a historic stadium? I will never understand that one. I know why people agree with it but I just will never be able to see it that one.
  23. CubbieBum
    Eh I agree with the blog in part. We shouldn't root or cheer for the Stros but we shouldn't have booed them. Think about when Katrina hit and what would have happened if Giants fans would have booed the Saints. Yes remain a fan of your own team but don't boo the guys who just had their town destroyed for simply taking the field.
  24. CubbieBum
    FYI blogs in 99.9% of cases is not journalism.
  25. CubbieBum
    I really wonder about some of the Cubs fans here. I know they are Cubs fans but to me without Wrigley its not the same Cubs.
