    I can see your point on defense, but a kicker is a kicker is a kicker. EDIT: I see now those aren't starting spots, just roster spots. Still, with Cutler as your QB, I'd make sure to get one of the best backups before worrying about the difference between Nate Kaeding and Neil Rackers.

    Now you've really done it.

    I think hiring Chuck Lamar would inspire me to pay for the Cubs Convention just to go on a red-faced rant at a Q&A until they drag me out.

    I don't really like Charles either, but you were pretty much forced there. I think Hillis has been really undervalued due to his overwhelming whiteness. I like him in the 3rd. I refuse to reach for a kicker. I rarely even draft them.

    At least they did all this while being one of the oldest teams in the league.

    Also dead last in ISO. But boy, can they hit singles. I blame Slappy Szczur.

    As of a few weeks ago, they were also 12th in OBP and last in walks. Sounds like the same old "swing, swing, swing" mentality to me. Now you've done it.

    Assuming the contracts are structured as rumored(which is still a fairly big assumption), I view it the same way as all the 1 year vets that were kept on the team despite having some sort of market for them. He's keeping around any piece that may be desired by a new GM, and putting it on him. Now I think Fleita and Wilken will be kept around by a new GM (maybe not in his current position for Fleita) in order to ensure a smooth transition, but I don't see how it's handcuffing the new guy at all.

    Maybe he'll save the Cubs some time and cut himself. It's an immature and petulant thing to do. It probably doesn't mean he should kill himself.

    Well that would be a [expletive] nightmare. Best of my knowledge he's a caveman like Hendry, so he wouldn't really fit what Ricketts described at the press conference.

    Campana's gonna get a spanking when he gets home for that potty-mouth.
  14. SouthSideRyan
    Frustration

    Nice slide quote machine.
  16. SouthSideRyan
    HAHAHHAHAA [expletive] awesome!!
  17. SouthSideRyan
    Obviously pitching around LaHair to get to Ramirez.
  18. SouthSideRyan
    Just admit it's 98 and we can all move on.
  19. SouthSideRyan
    How much would you hate sittiny by those two clowns. Yeah, of course. Pinch hit for Geovany Soto with Blake DeWitt.
  20. SouthSideRyan
    Actually, it's his 11th of the year..... but who's counting ??? 12th you liar. Sez who ??? BR + his 2 DPs today.

    Where does The Sports Machine predict us?
  23. SouthSideRyan
    That's gotta be Byrd's 98th GIDP on the year.
  24. SouthSideRyan
    They'd fit right in to the Chicago newspaper scene if that's the case. There's always Applebee's
  25. SouthSideRyan
    And Dave Bliss wasn't a bad coach, just a disgraceful human being.
