  1. So do the Bulls.
  2. Wasn't Maddux given a lot of credit for Dempster's success as a starter?
  3. Any reasoning behind you're assumption or is it just making an assumption for the sake of making an assumption? I haven't heard Hendry say a word about "getting more lefthanded" for at least a couple years now and probably more than that. Basically, you're saying that if Pujols and Pena were both available, the Cubs would only have pursued Pena? Do you have anything at all to back this up? I don't really feel like digging through old articles looking for it, but I could swear they were focused on getting a lefty power bat in the middle of the line up. If it was never, ever said this offseason, then I am wrong and will admit so. Can't say it would have even been the wrong thing to do considering that most of the best free agent 1b bats were left handed, and the Cubs line up was already dominated with righty bats in Castro, Ramirez, Soriano, Soto and Byrd. They couldn't afford Pujols, so it's not even worth discussing that. I was glad they signed Carlos Pena, so I don't even wish to continue this discussion, but unless he turns things around, we all end up with egg on our faces for thinking he still had something left. It would've been tough to sign Pujols last offseason.
  4. Castro and Ramirez are underperforming my expectations.
  5. Is LaHair even younger than Pena?
  6. Unless you think something's changed with regards to Soriano's talents this year compared to his career, this isn't really telling. Just very unfortunate.
  7. It was the technical on Jones that they took away. Pierce's technical stood. Whoops...Well can we still replay it?
  8. NBA upgraded James Jones's foul on Pierce to a flagrant, and rescinded Pierce's technical from the play. Any chance we can replay the last 8 minutes with our best player on the court now?
  9. What happened to Doug Davis? Aw [expletive], this is why we won't roster Jay Jackson isn't it. Because we have to save a spot for Doug [expletive] Davis or Ramon [expletive] Ortiz, and heaven forbid we lost Brian [expletive] Schlitter or Thomas [expletive] Diamond. [expletive].
  10. There's an open spot on the 40 man, and we already tried to give away Schlitter for free once. Anyone in the minors should be eligible to come up.
  11. It's not like losing the Rose from the postseason is going to hurt them any.
  12. Pretty sure that was a foul but Noah deserved that T for acting like a child.
  13. You guys are going to look like spazzes when the Bulls win by 8.
  14. Were a good 40 points away from the Big Mac promotion and/or scal what do you expect Scal's not suited up. edit: oddly enough, he is in a suit (yes, I know that;s a rule now) He's been inactive the entire postseason. i am aware, although I do not know why that has been the case, so each time I see him there in a suit I wonder why again, but not enough to actually try to figure it out. Because he's a terrible basketball player and you can only have 12 players active in the postseason.
  15. I guess I don't understand your point Mojo. What's the issue?
  16. Were a good 40 points away from the Big Mac promotion and/or scal what do you expect Scal's not suited up. edit: oddly enough, he is in a suit (yes, I know that;s a rule now) He's been inactive the entire postseason.
  17. Oh they were chanting for Boozer I guess
  18. Joe Johnson terrified that he was inside 15 feet, pulls it out.
  19. The Hawks haven't run an offensive set in an hour.
