  1. alot of sheep rapings tonight....alot So those are your plans for this evening? Is the Brett Favre Press post game conference on yet? I'm anxious to hear the pity party, woah is me plea. he'll play the "i'm back, no i'm not, yes, i am... no i'm not" game. its great times for all of us. Does he start that already? probably not, but a bears fan can have some fun...right? No. wasn't asking you...this was your chance and you're team blew it for ya. favre is gone and ryan grant ain't leading you anywhere. Yeah, this was our chance. Never mind the fact that we're the youngest team in the NFL. If Favre leaves, so be it. I have full confidence that Rodgers can step in and do a productive job. And as far as Grant goes, the jury is still out on that. and you will be one step closer to devisating injuries thruth is, next year it start allll over. and botht he bears and packers should be in it
  2. yes its almost funny looking
  3. well, if this post is true, and the blog true, I woud agree with the blogger. I alsow would love to buy Hendry a beer, if for no other reason but sheer entertainment.
  4. Does anyone besides me enjoy the irony of that? ouch, awefully cold
  5. yay Seahawks, my (hopeful) pick in the NFC
  6. I had to say Sabean I dont know what the guy loves about 35+ yr olds. its almost creepy
  7. yes. thats kind of what I would have liked the Cubs to do with him Thats what the Cubs would have liked too really? I guess I missed that. I understood that line of reasoning to be a prevailing thought on the board, but not nec Hendry's intentions. The Cubs offered him a 1 year deal with a team option. Prior turned it down. ic

  9. I'm not talking about inside the stadium. Petco won't let me light up anywhere on the stadium grounds. I have to exit the stadium entirely to light up. And I'm not going to do it. ahh...
  10. well, I didnt even post there, so that makes 2 of us
  11. how many parks still allow smokers? cant be many...?
  12. No. Prior didn't want to be with the Cubs anymore. Whether he has legitimate reasons for wanting to leave is unknown, but it really doesn't matter. The Cubs only controlled Prior for 1 more year, and I'm sure Prior would have done his final year respectfully and in honor of his contract. The Cubs didn't want to do that, so it appears to be a mutual split. your just saying that cuz you'll get to see him pitch on a reg basis :evil:

  14. you just ruined my morning coffee thanks man.
  15. How else are you going to grade a player, especially at the amatuer levels? I think it would make sense to stop pretending those are the 5 tools that matter, and implying they are of equal value. But one thing I've never understood is how somebody can be described as having the tool of being able to hit for average. I'm assuming that's just a matter of having hit for a high average in his career, but that's not scouting, that's looking at results. The hitting for power tool is self explanatory, you can see when a guy hits the ball he hits it far. Speed is easy. So's the arm. Defense is subjective, but I assume it's more or less watching a guy play defense and judging how good you think he is at it. Presumably, all those things pretty much translate, except for hitting for average. Anyway, how else could you grade a player? I don't know, but there has to be a better way. maybe by tweaking what is thought of as a "tool"? idk..
  16. what? with all the $$$ Tim is paying you? The Dragon's store won't ship to the US. lol, but you've tried, thats whats important...
  17. seriously? my guess if it was someone who had played for the Cubs recently would be Cliff Floyd, which for several years would be nice
  18. what? with all the $$$ Tim is paying you?
  19. yea but one guy we love one guy we hate and want to go away ( I use "we" as in me, and anyone else who loves Cuban/hates Marriotti)
  20. Cubans blog would be more popular then Mariotti's article I guess thats how I read Omar's comment
  21. ok, I was really confused with an earlier post well, still am.. o wait, sarcasm..nvm. busy day at the office
  22. I have to ask, are you NOT goony? I really thought you were, and if not my appologies to you both...
