This game was during that stretch where I actually managed to get over my hatred for Jim Edmonds. I never thought he would do it, but he did it. Geo was fat then, too. GO!!! Yup this is where most Cubs fans accepted Edmonds. Braves game, game-tying HR. -
Not that I expect a reasonable answer out of you, but what teams have a chance at being world series champs?
-
Kevin Hart and Mitch Atkins are not centerpieces to any trades. Half those guys in your second list wouldn't bring back cash considerations.
-
Numbers wise the White Sox have one of the best bullpens in the majors.
-
I think Miles is in more danger than Freel. I think Blanco-Miles-Freel is the order of likelihood on who goes out when Freel comes back.

When Will Chris Huseby Walk Somebody?
SouthSideRyan replied to CubsWin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk

Probably the pitch that could've been called strike three on the 1-2. I thought he was throwing Guillen under the bus because before the AB he seemed to assume they'd walk Soriano to get to Theriot.
-
Dye takes a pitch in the same exact location as Soriano. It's called a ball. Hawk's comment was "Soto wanted that" I thought it was amazing what one missed call could do Hawk?
-
Haha, Stone starts to say maybe he shouldn't have given up 2 HRs, and Hawk's voice starts cracking about the ball call instead.

The pouting's beginning on the replay if anyone cares.

http://www.dailymail.com/ap/ApSports/200906160787 Mike Brey against the Big Ten last year? 1-2 (The 1 against IU.)

John Danks sounds severely mentally handicapped.
-
Mail-order brides have expiration dates?
-
The Cubs were taken to a better hospital, where their status was upgraded to alive.
-
Oh, I was thinking of '07. I'm still not sure of your point. People who go to WSI to troll are idiots regardless of the results of the next series.
-
The Cubs won 2 out of 3?
-
The best part about the crosstown series is reading all the White Sox fans I know/barely know on facebook putting up outraged statuses.

Can you run some #s on Colby Rasmus for me? I agree, you see that bomb today? HE'S BACK BABY!!

Re: Sale of Cubs to Ricketts Complete (p. 15)
SouthSideRyan replied to 17 Seconds's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I can't remember, I think we liked Utay. Ricketts would have to really be dragging his feet if this is legit, cause I don't see how they get comparable dollars in the current market. -
Haha, Geo.
-
I'd rather watch the 2006 Cubs than watch the tediousness that is preseason football.
-
Football, rather. 43 days to Bears TC. 58 to the first pre-season game Preseason football is awful.

Re: Sosa tested positive in 2003 per NY Times
SouthSideRyan replied to SouthSideRyan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Babe Ruth did it with hot dogs, domestic abuse, and segregation. And corked bats. -
Yeah, I know. It's really a choice between sucking really bad, and sucking incredibly bad. I can't really believe that there isn't a better option out there somewhaere that Hendry couldn't be getting after. I would imagine he's working the phones as best he can, but remember, this is still pretty early in the "trade season". While it's not unheard of to see trades made at this time, it is still a bit rare. Another thing that hasn't gotten much press, it's my understanding that with the Tribune still owning the team and with their being in bankruptcy, any move that Hendry would make that will take on more debt has to be signed off on by the bankruptcy court. I have no experience with bankruptcy, but how do things like amateur signing bonuses/contracts get figured into this situation. Is there a certain threshhold that you can spend on until it is considered debt? Is it a cumulative amount that they can spend so much, and then aren't allowed anymore?
