  1. weird, I cant type [expletive] any more, it just comes out [expletive]
  2. i can agree with you on that.......
  3. I didagree with you. I could see them thinking "what a perfect opportunity to attract some attenion. with Cubdom so worked up over Dusty, its going to be EASY to get them to show up for this in NY. We dont need to go to Chicago for this at all, there are more then enough Cub fans all over the country to get this done in NY...." I really think was their line of thinking. Why would the deny an email existed if in fact they REALLY wrote it? If the email wa fake, that would be another story and I would fully by your thoughts..... A, we don't know it was fake. The guy who is using this to promote his site is the one claiming it was not fake. B, if it was real, we don't know who sent it, who knew it was sent, or who denied it was real. What we have is a guy who is trying to bring eyeballs to his own site by acting like some sort of hero, and then repeating the story. I live here. I see Cubs fans from time to time. When I talk to them most of them are just bummed about the season, and they do not have anywhere close to the amount of disgust toward Dusty that I have. They generally buy the myth that he's a great manager and that things just haven't gone our way. And bottom line is it was a joke. They didn't go out recruting booers, they mentioned that if you wanted to boo, you could boo. Big freaking deal. Characterizing this as an attempted ambush is a joke. I disagree it is a joke. if Kasper and the Tribune are involved, its one hell of a joke, and it would seem that Smith at some point would either say "hey, look kids, it was all a joke!!" or go after this guy for lying about the email and getting everyone else involved.
  4. Fred?? were you wearing blue that night??? :P

  6. I don't get it. :? See here. lmao I totally want there job
  7. allright...i get the pitcher..literally
  8. could he possibly be worse the Rothschild? you might be right, he' might be circling waiting for the axe to fall on Dusty & Co. to try and get in..
  9. Ha, I remember writing something just like that on message boards back then. suuuuuuure you do..... :wink:
  10. http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cs-060720jenkinsbrite,1,5209872.story?coll=cs-home-headlines time to wake up Hendry.......
  11. I have the same problem lol thats just terrible
  12. Then why didn't they go to Chicago to do the show, where they would actually have a chance to get people to boo Dusty? why would they have to if they could get them to go to the show in NY? I do agree with your assertation of the undue attention Smith will get becuase of Kurt, however.
  13. I honestly feel that Kurt did the right thing here. Did he over-react? I dont think he did. I dont like Dusty, but to ambush him on air is just stupid, and I'm sorry, I dont place the people in Bristol much higher then the people running Jerry Springer. A show with those ratings is begging for some attention.
  14. that 2nd one was a dumpster!!???? holy schnikes :shock:
  15. nice shot!!!! hope the person is ok.......
  16. this thread is totaly lost on me
  17. Freddy Sanchez. Actually its very good. My brother in law in Burbank used to coach baseball there. In 1992, his last year there, he would stay late and hit ground balls to some skinny kid for fun. After awhile, he got to know him and thought alot of the kid. not the biggest, best baseball player around, etc etc etc, but he worked very hard and liked the game alot. The kid wasn' happy in the least bit that Dave was leaving the position, but things are sometimes just what they need to be. That kid was Freddy. Last Tuesday, my brother in law, sister, and two nephews watched Freddy play in the All Star game. They were all very proud of him. I thought it was a cool story. I dont know much about his professional career, but he has fans back in LA county. Congrates.
  18. I've noticed it a bit, myself. The question to be asked then is "have the players decided to take it upon themselves to be more patient, going against the wishes of a management team that is on it's way out anyway?" Or has management decided to quietly take a completely different approach than they have for the last 3 1/2 years? :shock: say it aint so
  19. he's a man of a million miracles...he'll save 'ya dude
  20. I love the idea of Betemit...I say give 'em Erye if you have to
