  1. He seemed like he was really getting his groove back towards the end of the year. 1.079 OPS in September. Depending on how he does in the playoffs, I wouldn't hate it if he was brought back if NOTHING ELSE better comes up
  2. I'm gonna be so hung over for that noon game on Sunday, guys. Umm...yeah. If the Cubs win on Saturday I'll be out from like 8pm - 4am...hopefully partying with you guys.
  3. Actually that would be an awesome idea. It was Jones that was wearing the goggles. If I were motivated enough, it would awesome to buy like 100 pairs of green goggles and hand them out to fans sitting near CF in the bleachers. I would be a nice sign to Jacque that fans have accepted him.
  4. Yeah UK, thanks for giving your scouting report. I don't get to watch a lot of the DBacks games, and missed big chunks of both series this year. Seems like their batters won't be able to handler some of our pitchers with great movement.
  5. Cant bring in beer, but you can bring in plastic bottles and coolers. Obviously, because of this there are plenty of ways to bring in beer.
  6. Sweet, this is going to be an amazing weekend at Wrigley. 5PM, game gets out at 8...hopefully celebrate into the night and then wake up hungover for game 4. I can't wait
  7. Regarding TBS in HD for Comcast subscribers, things are not looking good: http://consumerist.com/consumer/bartman-not-invited-this-time/hey-comcast-cubs-fans-want-tbs-in-hd-right-now-305309.php
  8. YES, I'd much rather stay up later to watch the games than have to cut work to watch them. As much as I love traditional Cubs baseball under the sun, for the playoffs, its night games for me.
  9. Over a quarter of the season has now been released. Updated today to include Astros and Dodgers games
  10. I know, they did terrible in the Fecal League this year.
  11. Sales? I only have to make 50 a day, I'm at about 25 as well.
  12. Aren't you glad you decided to go to school in Chicago?
  13. I would suggest bringing your hottest girl friend and walking around trying to get entrance.
  14. I was there too. Major Daley putting on the Cubs cap was awesome
  15. Yeah...you could amend that to "Who's playing? I'm just here for the beer." Or how about just "What's the score?"
  16. Honestly, as much of a draw the Cubs are, the Boston-Los Angeles matchup has to be a better priority for the networks to get on prime time TV. One of the biggest fan bases against a team that plays in the vicinity of the second largest market in the US. The Cubs are a great draw, but a DBacks team with limited star power and limited fan appeal will not be quite the demand that many are expecting. I wouldn't be surprised to be the 4PM game on Wednesday (2 PM in Arizona)
  17. Awesome, a team full of young players ready to bust out for Dusty to stifle. I propose a Loney for Craig Monroe swap this offseason.
  18. Actually, it would be hard to top that one, if only for proclaiming his pure awesomeness, plus giving a secret shoutout to nsbb.
  19. I am ok with his numbers this year, except the fact that they will never get much better than this, and will probably be worse the majority of his tenure with the Cubs. He is a good guy to have around as long as he isn't the focal point of the offense.
  20. I don't mean to put bad mojo on us, I've just always enjoyed witty humor and witty signs at games. OK, I change my requirements to anything witty.
  21. Imagine if his first MLB hit was in the playoffs LOL
  22. Stephen Drew. Already hate the guy for some reason, and he certainly has breakout superstar potential, so yeah him.
  23. With the Cubs in the playoffs and our best rivals (Cardinals, White Sox, Mets) sitting at home, this is the perfect time to bring some trash talking signs to the game. I just wanted to get your suggestions for best signs to bring to the game, preferably onces that take shots at a rival. I think for now my favorite idea is to reverse a sign that really irked me in 2004. "How is the reception in St. Louis, Cardinals fans?" But to turn around a witty idea in the face of a Cardinals WS Championship and the Cubs futility would not seem as witty. So I am looking for suggestions.
  24. Couple of interesting things in this article: http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-070930cubsgamer,1,4930373.story?coll=cs-home-headlines Are you serious? Theriot sucks at 2nd in the order
  25. Lets do this. The NL is wide open, so lets take it
