  1. I FAINTLY remember another incident where he either got HBP or brushed back, and got up furious. He pointed his bat at the pitcher, and the pitcher all but pissed himself. Anyone else remember that better than I, or at all?
  2. The Royals signed MECHE to a large multi-year contract (that's my joke)
  3. When someone posts an article from Joe Morgan, it's safe to assume that their actual view point is the EXACT OPPOSITE...at least here at NorthSideBaseball.
  4. How on Earth did this thread get to be 9 pages long? I can sum it up in three lines: Dunn K's a lot and his defence sucks, but he walks a ton and hits for great power. Some people think if he just simply K'd less, he'd be a better hitter and they would be wrong. He'll never play for the Cubs. Did that about cover it?
  5. Did Zambrano break his neck in a movie watching accident in this scenario?
  6. I'd be much more surprised if Jennings regressed back to ERA+ 93 or so than putting up another 120 or next year. I'm pretty sure he had struggled with some minor nagging injuries during his so-so years. Healthy, he's a very very good #3 pitcher.
  7. I want Craig Counsil on the team for no reason other than making fun of my non-baseball-fan friend's bowling style, which I likened to his batting stance. (He holds the ball over his head before aproaching) Didn't make any sense to him, but he'll see Counsil some time if he comes to the Cubs, and will know how horrible he looks (and plays).
  8. http://www.progressiveboink.com/dugout/archive/jon85.html Not sure if anyone posted to Progressive Boink's take.
  9. Well, I have a chess tourney at that draft time, so I guess I'm out....sorry guys...
  10. Ill play with Raw if you would be kind enough to allow two more.
  11. Keith Hernandez's daughter is going out with a friend of mine, and I recently found out she lives in my apartment complex. Met her at the pool last weekend. When she saw my Cubs tatoo, she said, "Are you serious? They are the worst team in baseball history." I replied, "Yeah, I put a joke ON MY SKIN." She had one of his gold gloves from the year she was born. Kinda cool.
  12. On a positive note, with all of these negative comments it seems that either Baker is unhappy and wants to leave, or that he sences that his time is up and is venting his frustrations before he leaves. I'm pumped about the recent comments. He has to be gone soon now...right? I really don't think this is the worst team the Cubs have had since I was born (1982), but is this season the biggest trainwreck? Definately!
  13. I DARE someone to beat 31HR. DOUBLE DARE you.
  14. 24 is now my record. Was at 22 with 13 pitches left...
  15. On a second try, I got 12 HR and about 5 come backs. I just sit on the change ups and tee off, but those slurves that go in two opposing directions are nasty.
  16. 4 homers, but hit the pitcher a good 9 times, and that was much more satisfying.
  17. The Cubs site reads as follows right now: "Cubs aim to pick up Rucsh against Tigers" I won't even waste my time or yours trying to make a joke out of it. It's already funny.
  18. Those splits are RIDICULOUS. And it goes to show how much of an impact a incompetent manager has on the outcome of a season. Any rational mind could have a big possitive effect on the offence armed with stats like those. The 1.016 OPS really is shocking to me from Murton.
  19. I remember coming back from an Iowa Cubs game in Colorado Springs and listening to a Cub game on the radio back in 2004 with my parents. They announced: "Glendon Rucsh has been called up from Iowa and will be starting today's game". "Holy (insert your favorite curse word here)!!!" I exclaimed. My Mom said, "What, what's wrong?" I replied, "Did you hear that?!? The Cubs managed to get someone to the majors who is worse than Jeff Fassero! I can't believe Glendon is even NEAR the majors this year! He had like a 6.50 ERA last year with the Brewers! He never once had a good season. What is going on!" "You are over-reacting," my Mom said. So yesterday, my Mom said over the phone: "Holy (insert your word)! Glendon sucks!" ...and she thinks NEIFI is OK!!! I was just listening to a song called "Green Jello Sucks (Theme Song)" by Green Jello, and for some reason, it immediately brought the Cubs to mind.
  20. This is actually a conversation that's been had quite a bit in other threads, but off the top of my head.... Larry Dierker Davey Johnson (though he just found employment elsewhere) Bobby Valentine Jim Riggleman Bob Brenly Lou Brown Leslie Nielsen Punky Brewster Eek! the cat Eek! the Cat!?! No way!!! Bring in Sharky. He'll light a fire under the team, and won't be afraid to yell (or bite) at umps.
  21. Thanks for the LOL moment. Hahahaha When asked about his idea to play 8 positions at once, Neifi replied, "I know I can't hit very well, but with my defence at all positions, we should get 4, maybe five outs every inning. Even though we won't score more than one run a week, the other team will average negative 5 runs a game...I have it all worked out on a notepad back in my room. I'm a huge stats nut."
  22. Sounds like "Slapshot." What did you say to him Reg? I told him his wife was a [expletive]! In other news, the miscreants on whitesoxinteractive.com must be wetting themselves over this thread! "She's a lesbian, a LESBIAN!!!"
  23. just remembered....do you guys remember when this team actually SWEPT the CARDINALS!?! Just can't believe that actually happened this season. What a tease.
  24. "I'm going fishing to get my mind off things. While I'm gone, Neifi will be managing the team. He said something about playing all 8 positions at once. If anyone can do it, Neifi can. Maybe he'll save us again this year!"
  25. That's the worst idea I've ever heard in my life. Maybe so, but I know 15 NSBB'ers I'd give it to yesterday off the top of my head. No one gets jokes anymore, either.
