  1. Gotta go with what got you there. We are going to bring back Koyie Hill?? plz dont push that idear
  2. no..I think its more to the fact ahtHill hasnt had run support all season, lets keep doing what were doing. it got us this far, right?
  3. well, wehn youre going all out, GO ALL OUT
  4. awesome work lou. take out our one guy who has showed up. hm..lets see..power hitters trying too much, catcher actually hitting for power, remove power from equation makes sense...
  5. I think Santo shouldnt drink. His Drink obviously drives him to the Cobs.
  6. I think you mean the above? edit: s rory, not trying to be a grammar nazi, just trying to understand your point...
  7. hoenstly, my worse case scenerio would be my best case scenerio at this point, and it would be winning this series, going down 3-0 in the NLCS, winning that series, going down 3-0 and winning the WS. i think my heart would explode. Now that would be the greatest world series run in baseball history, and you, my friend, are living in disneyland. we're Cub fans, we all "live" in Disneyland
  8. yea, that was the book on davis too, but we decided to promote him to hero
  9. hoenstly, my worse case scenerio would be my best case scenerio at this point, and it would be winning this series, going down 3-0 in the NLCS, winning that series, going down 3-0 and winning the WS. i think my heart would explode.
  10. see RIGHT THERE. RIGHT THERE is what the Cobs are good for. mending relationships. group hug everyone!!
  11. sometimes I think the whole "curse" thing is more important to non-cub fans then cub fans. if the cubs ever won it all, what would those people do with their lives?
  12. I'm done being nice Man, I don't think you know the exact meaning of donkey punch... I'm taking it out of context-and keeping it sex-free
  13. its not unreasonable. unfortunatly, it also is reasonable to see the cubs continue this cold streak for 1 more game. then, well, see my previous post in this thread.
  14. I'm done being nice
  15. i hate that man
  16. he prolly had his own thing with rehap going-thus no time to be there
  17. I wonder what that experience was like for him after 2003 KW too...
  18. someone yelled that in the game thread "prior sighting" but i didnt see him
  19. dont suk plz honestly, I dont know what they do. they need to relax. whatever does that for them, do it.
  20. The first pitch was the point in which we lost the game. fixed I dont blame Lilly, I wish I saw that emotion from Soriano or Lee Uhh, didn't Lee slam his bat after a strikeout and throw his helmet in disgust only to realize he should be running to first base on a WP? He's shown plenty enough emotion. I don't see why everyone has to be the same and show emotion. That's the first time Lilly has all season (except maybe 1 little fist pump). You guys get mad at Z for showing emotion, you guys get excited when Z shows emotion. It's really hard to keep track of when showing emotion is good and when it isn't (actually, it's easy - when player is doing well, it's good; when player isn't, it's bad). I'm sure all of these guys know they're sucking and are disappointed - one pan into the dugout late yesterday was enough to tell. It's a human reaction but I hope none of these guys goes and hurts themself over it. well if Lee did/has then I a) stand corrected b) didnt see it c) am happy to hear that I was prolly too discusted with his AB that I turned away and missed it..
  21. CRAP. your saying theres a chance? thats all my heart needs-hope. f-hope. Nobody has gotten back to game 5 and lost. Interesting... shhhhhhhh [expletive] it.. yo know we'll be the 1st to do it
  22. maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think an extension works that way Ok, I will spell it out... 2008-2010 financial obligations (eliminated if Rodriguez voids): NY: $50,695,500 (08:$15.884M, 09:$16.8985M, 10:$17.913M) Texas: $21,304,500 (08:$8.116M, 09:$7.1015M, 10:$6.087M) So, lets say ARod voids the contract and signs a 7 year 30M per year contract with the Cubs, he will receive 210M and the Cubs will be paying him 210M Instead, the Yanks could offer him a 4 year extention paying him 39.75M a year from 2010-2014. ARod would receive 231M, the Yanks would be paying 210M, and the Rangers would be paying 21M. SO, basically, the yanks can offer ARod 21M more than any other team, while only spending the same as any other team because they'd be paying him with some Texas money. If leaving NY is worth 21M to ARod, then I can see him leaving, but also, don't forget that assumes the Yanks would match the best "offer". Most likely they can outbid anyone they want, he is obviously their most important player, AND they have $ coming off the books. I'd be shocked if the Yanks and ARod didn't agree to an extention. I would argue that at $30 mil a season, leaving $9 mil on the table for a happier place might be worth it its not like he'd be playing for peanuts
  23. That's because, as we all know, the Cubs just don't have enough grit. It was grit all along. Lack of grittiness. Neifi would know what to do. he saved us dude. he saved us.
