  2. Yea, someone has some bad sources or the sources they have were merely speculating. This is far past the ridiculous point and I am going to blame Gammons for not letting go of Theo's leg. http://mt.nesn.com/.a/6a0115709f071f970b0148c692e5b1970c-400wi "Theo, if you stay, I will send 1000 hookers to you on my dime".

  4. Not sure if this has been posted but the Cubs have been granted permission by MLB to hold the presser tomorrow. This might be the most anticipated press conference in team history.
  5. Man, it must suck to be a Cardinals fan right now and have to deal with this. Yeah, it must really suck watching them win game 1 in the WS. I'd much rather be in their shoes, of course. That said, the fact Ricketts is under their skin at a time like this makes me smile.
  6. If this is right, I can't imagine what it is the Cubs DID give up. How in the heck did they wear the Red Sox down that much over the course of week or so? Well, I think it boiled down to a disaster for the Red Sox if they did not get it done. Theo and Luchino really are at a point of no return with each other. Henry feels scorned by Theo and after the initial bitterness wears off, they had to move on.
  7. Cardinal fans tweeting Waddle and Silvy calling the Cubs losers for basically attempting to hog the WS spotlight from them. Ha, deal with it. :twisted:
  8. Excellent point. Perhaps Len will bring his? And Gammons, too.
  9. I do not mind Murphy's either. However, the bear has live bands and perhaps Theo will bring his guitar.
  10. If we're not giving up cash, how are we paying Lackey to play for SD? Yes, my bad.
  11. So perhaps this Lackey speculation has legs? If we are not giving up to prospects and no cash, it could go down that way. If not, Ricketts is just a mad pimp.
  12. WSOX? Yes, go talk about Ventura, White Sox fans. This is OUR party.
  13. I want to go to the Cubby bear, throw down a few and wait for the presser. This is an awesome day!
  14. Levine: Hoyer to be named GM a few days after Epstein presser!!
  15. Breaking: Levine on Waddle and Silvy. Epstein will be Cubs president and annoucement to come later today. "The ball is on the 5 yard line and is ready to be pushed in". Change the thread title!!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!
  16. Speculation or supposed rumor? Bigggggg difference. Message board speculation = a b2b trade proposal Supposed rumor = big bird Speculation. However, Boston's management's desire is very strong to move Lackey and the Pads do have interest.
  17. Not sure how Rosenbloom is employed. There is no question many of us here on this board can write more insightful columns compared to this gas bag. Anyway, I was reading the forums at SOSH and there is speculation that perhaps, (again, perhaps) that Theo has already made his first move. Basically, the Pads have shown interest in Lackey. There could be a scenario that Theo and the Cubs will absorb part of Lackey's contract and send him to SD. By doing this, the Cubs do not have to send two top shelf prospects to Boston. It's no secret Luchino and Henry want Lackey gone. If this is the case, it's not too far fetched that the deal might go down that way. Hoyer (for the Cubs picking up some salary for Lackey) then comes here as GM and everyone is happy.
  18. And now this from the Globe:
  19. Is Theo like a son to Gammons, or does Pete think Theo is his son? Here is the SOSH quote. Just a fan of his team like us, but it seems on the money.
  20. From what I read on sosh, Theo is like a son to Gammons. This partially explains Gammons rant today on the Cubs. Gammons is hurting.
  21. Ha! Kaplan's twitter is blowing up.
  22. I want Ricketts to ask Bud to let him have his announcement tomorrow so he can crap all over STL.
  23. Are they really going to let the Cubs announce this tomorrow? I doubt it. If the Cubs ask Bud, he can grant them permission.
