  1. Yeah, Goose Island should be a mass consumed beer at Cubs games.
  2. i love wekse's sister, she lives in my xbox! Whereas I live in her...
  3. Coletti is Drew Gooden.
  4. Something like 2/20 might be a good deal for both sides - maybe with a club option for a third year for a little more money. Dempster gets the security likely through the remainder of his career, and the Cubs save a few million for next year if they choose to pursue two major FAs. He's also not so expensive that it's crippling if he falls off a cliff either of the next two years. Are you saying on top of the option he picks up? There's no reason for Dempster to take 2/20 when he has 1/14 locked in.
  5. Btw, why is Arizona [expletive] good?
  6. Right waive him again, anyone claims him he's theirs.
  7. Really? Does Texas not sell out all their home games?
  8. It was funny when I pooped in his spot in the dugout. Somebody, when somebody pooped in his spot.
  9. It was funny when I pooped in his spot in the dugout.
  10. They're only playing 6 home games?
  11. Well, 2nd to Crane Kenney.
  12. hahahhahahahahhaa it's so hard to believe this was true but it more or less was Yeah, it looks like a bad joke, but it was all too true. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2003-05-11/sports/0305110276_1_fishing-boat-fishing-show-cubs That article still makes me angry.
  13. I want to say September call-ups don't count with regards to that, but it shouldn't matter, as only the 16% with the most service time between 2-3 years get early arbitration.
  14. Why this guy of all people? Because he's minor league filler and they didn't want to jerk around any real prospects.
  15. Won't Flaherty have to be rostered anyway? What's the difference if he's rostered now or in December?
  16. And you're wrong, Dusty did bat Bellhorn leadoff. Once. Because some guy he was fishing with told him he batted leadoff the year before.
  17. Inspired by the NFL thread, I went in search of college futures bets. Washington State total wins 4.5 (-160)u Boise State average points 42.5(-130)u Auburn total wins 6.5(+110)o
  18. Rams over 7.5 (even) Packers under 11.5 (-150) Broncos over 5.5 (-140) Panthers over 4.5 (-135) seem like easy money too I debated taking Rams over 7.5, the other 3 I don't want to touch, but I think I'd disagree with you on all 3 bets.
  19. Didn't it just get a huge cash infusion from venture capitalists? It may suck but it is relevant. It's relevant because it's a SEO content mill for sports. People can't resist linking idiotic sports opinions and having all their friends click on it. It's why da bum still has hope.
  20. Yeah, some people were griping about his "attitude" and "selfishness" pretty much every season he was on the Cubs and they sucked (AKA pretty much every season). "Sammy only coming through for Sammy after it was too late" was pretty common meme, especially after the home run race. Not saying it was the dominant mentality, but it wasn't hard to find/hear, either. My recollection was that Sammy was kind of all flash and no substance prior to learning how to take a walk and really blowing up in 98. But going back to his pre 98 numbers, he was regularly putting up 4+ WAR seasons. As a sidenote, I always remember a friend's dad (Mets fan in NJ) saying he was rooting for McGwire in the homerun race and all his reasoning pretty much worked as code about how it was because McGwire was white. He was a really good defender back in the day. BR's WAR had 1996 as his 3rd most valuable season(which I don't buy, but it's still interesting)
  21. I didn't know there were bums in Milwaukee.
  22. What a dreadful article. And how did Z get the lazy rap? Crazy? Sure. Lazy? no way. Bradley too. The one thing I always said about Bradley was that he was too laid back and didn't care.
  23. Your beer back? They running out? He probably doesn't want to automatically be lumped in with the mustached (oooh edgy!!) tools when people see him drinking it.
