Yup, if you want people to laugh at you behind your back.

Cubs have asked for city's permission to install billboard
UMFan83 replied to David's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
You say it like "strippers on the pitcher's mound for the 7th" is a bad thing? -
It's easy to say when you have no interest in going to Chicago (or leaving Dallas at all) Isn't it just as easy to say "Yeah, Derrick is a nice young talent, but the slide they are going through will taint them as a destination."? Yeah but why would Dirk randomly badmouth the Bulls, even if he has no desire to come here this season? Doesn't make sense and doesn't fit with Dirk's personality.

Yes Please (Ridiculous ESPN Rumor)
UMFan83 replied to Outshined_One's topic in General Baseball Talk
Come on. This is a smarter baseball forum than most. You should see the difference. The Cardinals have upside talent around Pujols for the next few years that's either already locked into contracts, or still in arb years. St. Louis is a Baseball town and having the best player in the game is not lost on ownership or the fans. Franchise players rarely leave their teams in their peak years if the team can afford to resign them, which the Cardinals can. I understand that he could go to another team if something crazy like a 350 million dollar contract is offered, but I just don't see it getting to that point. I think St. Louis signs him to an extension before opening day 2011. Yeah but I mean there was a point where all those things you said applied to Ken Griffey Jr. except for Seattle being a particularly great baseball town and yet he left. Pujols has probably a less than 1% chance of being traded at this point, but you never know. -
That's what she said. Ironically that's my league's name. I'm in a H2H league with 9 players, so we desperately need 1 more and don't want to open up the league to a public player. It's pretty standard league, scoring is R, HR, RBI, SB, OBP, SLG for hitters and W, SV, HLD, K, ERA, WHIP for pitchers. I've done this league for 3 years and it's a mix of people from Cubs fans, to Tigers fans, to Red Sox fans, to even a Rays fan. Everyone tries hard and sticks with it all year so it's a competitive league. There is a $20 buy into the league with the 2nd place team getting their money back and the winner getting the rest. The biggest thing is that the league drafts THIS SUNDAY at 4pm CST. So if you are interested or know a friend who needs a league, let me know. I really don't want to have to open up the league to the likes of the public on Yahoo.

Wow, I completely stopped following the standings during the 3 game losing streak. I just assumed that the Sharks were running away with the 1 seed.
-
I completely forgot the Hawks were playing tonight until just now.... Good to see we're actually winning for now.

Wow Big East. The Pac 10 has won as many games as you. And they've only had one attempt to win a game so far.
-
wow. i think q has a right to whine considering he keeps losing defensemen to dirty hits Yeah I am all for physical play but when we lose defensemen in consecutive games to questionable hits, Q has a right to be pissed. The Ducks are going nowhere and the Hawks are supposedly contenders.
-
Wiz got 8 games....
-
Yes you are. What do you think a Chicago sports talk station is going to talk about? Former well liked Blackhawk gives ex-teammate a cheap shot, injuring one of our starting defensemen one game after another player who plays the same position is injured by another semi-cheap hit, or Blackhawks player gives another teams player a cheap shot and other player is left uninjured.

Millar’s chances of making Cubs improving
UMFan83 replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
The Millar fluff piece in the Trib today is nausiating. -
Combined Chicago sports losing streak is 12 I think. It's been so bad I'm just not even watching the Bulls or Hawks. I flipped over to the game a couple of times to see the score but the less I think about the losing streaks the happier I generally am.

Guess what Tom Petty song I have in my head right now. 1-3 vs. Anaheim this year yuck.

Another Bear jersey of mine goes from the active player pile to the former player pile. That's what I came here to post. What a terrible jersey purchase. I bought it right before the 2006 season after his big 2005 season. I wore it through 2007 and then after that it was really too embarrassing to wear. I think my most stable jersey has been my Robbie Gould jersey. Sensing Vasher was quickly becoming unusable, I bought a Briggs jersey after he resigned with the Bears 2 years ago. It will probably be in the safe zone for another couple of years.

Geez, the Blackhawks are turning into the Bulls with all their depth crushing injuries. What a crappy couple weeks of Chicago sports. *waits for sulley*

It's a Toyota ad, not a BMW ad. -
Wow Grossman in a Shanahan offense.
-
Well there's the fact that Lovie is absolutely enamoured with him and has been since the day he was drafted.
-
I'd be panicked if my team had the best record in hockey last year and lost in the first round too. You are going to worry about everything until you get over the hump. Hawks fans are panicking becuase they are Chicago sports fans, who in general, panick about everything and anything.
-
TO is a shell of his former self. I don't think its worth taking playing time away from Devin A. to get him on board.
-
Eddie Williams, who they signed a few days ago. Whoops, took a week off from following the Bears
-
Who is going to play FB? Kellen Davis?
