  1. Tickets are spoken for!

  4. I have a Patterson jersey if you want it.
  5. My apologies then. A big part of me hopes we don't somehow get Peavy, just so I won't get my hopes up again. Although, I probably don't even have to worry about that one as I think the chance of it happening is pretty low.
  6. Would this qualify? "I love 20 year old kids who just recently found out about sabermetrics." If I was 15 years younger I'd take offense to that comment... I agree. That was a pointless and unnecessary shot to me. You know an argument is hopeless when they bring out the age card. Just how often have you personally used the phrase "You'll get it when you're older"?
  7. The discussion is what your standards are. Mine are WS or bust. What are yours?
  8. Thanks for contributing to the thread, TheMojoPin!
  9. Relax. That's fantastic. Like you said before, it's arguably different. I don't think it is a successful season unless you win the World Series. So by that logic, my questions were fine. I have unnaturally high expectations because the Cubs haven't won one in 100 years, so really settling for anything less makes zero sense.
  10. The key word being "arguably". I argue that you are wrong. Who cares? There is a poll question. I asked a different question in the message after the poll question. Why don't you use that negative energy to vote no, like I did, instead of complaining about this poll?
  11. So? This is a poll. I also asked a followup question. Are you happy with the way the season turned out? The follow up question is to provide some discussion. For example... If you were not happy with the way it turned out, why weren't you? Do you need a World Series win to be happy with a season?
  12. The season itself was great, which made the ending even more painful. Its like theres the girl of your dreams, whose been teasing you for years. All of the sudden, she decides she wants to be with you, and you get engaged. You plan out the wedding, the honeymoon, and living happily ever. Then a few days before the wedding, she gets gravely ill all of the sudden, and dies a few days later. Wouldnt you have been happier if she never came into your life? it's actually nothing like that HAHAHAH I disagree. It's more like if someone said that you were going to kill your father and marry your mother. Crazy right? So fast forward a bit, you wind up getting into a dispute with this dude after coming across a chariot, and oops!, you kill your real father unbeknownst to you at the time. Then, after answering a complex riddle, you are given your real mother, again you didn't know at the time, as your wife. But then right before you were to get married she dies but only because you got swept three games to none in the chariot races.
  13. If you don't win the world series it's a bust no joke especially for a team like this who could have won it all but didn't!
  14. Now that it has all been said and done, I want to see who does, and who doesn't, feel that the 2008 Cubs season was a successful one. We did win the division two years in a row. We also have lost nine straight playoff appearances. Is it a success if you get to the playoffs? Or do you need actual playoff success to call it that?
  15. I put Zambrano. Was that really wrong? Did he not throw a no-hitter? Was he not actually quite good in the playoffs? Come on!
  16. I'd be too worried about them digging up dirt on my past. 7th grade. Sam Goody. Friend I was with randomly tries to steal a CD. Yada yada yada I end up in the back of a police car with a crying 7th grader sitting next to me. Could you imagine if my real fans ever got wind of this?
  17. I hate this game. I hate sports. I hate all things.
  18. yea right, keep telling yourself that. i already have my daugher saying "o ubs o" I should call DCFS.
  19. No. With terminal cancer there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
  20. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E CUBS 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 4 9 0 Los Angeles 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 3 6 0 It would have looked nice, wouldn't it have? :cray:
  21. This is a good matchup for us. Broxton is not smiling in his picture, while DeRosa is. Broxton also suspiciously looks like the opponents that Bugs Bunny faced.
  22. DeRosa, if you do something here, I'll treat myself to a nice meal.
  23. This is like when Kyle brings home burgers, and throws some in the trash, and I give it to his kitty, who we do not run over.
