    He looks like he enjoys life If anyone has Comcast on Demand, somewhere on there, there are Cubs players that come in and read books to schools. Demp, Eyre and Pierre are the three I think.

    First chance at 2B for Cedeno is a bad one

    Was just thinking how much turnover this team really has. In this lineup: -1 player from 2002 -2 players from 2003 -3 players from 2004 -5 players from 2005

    I can't believe we haven't had a walkoff all year, thats ridiculous. I think the team with the most has 12

    Reassigned to cover the Sky...wow, thats how you know you're on the outs.

    Our generation? That was 15 years ago! Think of all the people who are like 16-18 on this board that were 1-3 when that happened. Alas, even though I was only 8 I remember that play quite well. Good stuff. Actually, I loved the Pirates back then and was pretty disapointed when they lost. I used to LOVE Andy Van Slyke.

    According to this article, Wood's days as a starter may be over at least temporarily. He spoke after the game today: http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-060802cubs,1,2809011.story?coll=cs-home-headlines What a sad fall from grace. Hopefully he can prosper.

    BTW, I'm confused with the original post. did you get to talk to JH or not? Why would he accept any calls from fans, much less when its an hour til the trade deadline.

    I did a youtube search for Neifi, hoping to find it, but I found this gem instead: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHj1ymtVamw&search=neifi

    This story by the Trib really upsets me. Hate Jacque Jones for signing a ridiculous 3 year contract. Yell at him for whatever. But don't yell at him for being black. This is so pathetic that we claim to have come so far as a society in race relations, when events like this are still going on. I just don't get it. I mean really there are an infinite number of better reasons to rip on a player (and trust me, I've exhausted most of them), but race? Agh, I hate people sometimes. I hope Jacque realizes that this is (hopefully) only a small , uneducated and ignorant portion of the population, and not the majority. http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-060801cubsjones,1,6634324.story?coll=cs-home-headlines

    Did you bring a similar sign to the bleachers at a game against the Brewers in June?
  16. UMFan83
    I know...good stuff

    OK lets talk about winning No Championships in 97 years No Championship round appearences in 61 years 4 playoff appearences in 61 years 0 90 win seasons (in 162 games) in 17 seasons 1 playoff series win in 97 years How have we had much of a chance?
  19. UMFan83
    But this would upset the fans, and we all know that attendance is more important then winning to the Cubs
  20. UMFan83
    I don't think they are trying to win. I think they are trying to keep butts in the seats, and if they win thats gravy. They spend, but only to pacify their fans. They spend because if they dismantled their team and played prospects, they think fans won't come anymore. They spend because a team of aging overrated veterans that they build EVERY year, is more important to them then building up their farm and having long term goals.

    Sweet, took you 3 years you fool
  22. UMFan83
    So umm...why is every Tribune columnist raving about this trade...
  23. UMFan83
    Rusch + Neifi + Izturis in 2007 = $9 million Dye in 2007 = $6 million
  24. UMFan83
    Nah, usually the guy has to fly into Chicago, get a uniform, get a locker, get settled, and so on. That'll take more than four hours to do. We'll probably see him tomorrow. I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!
  25. UMFan83
    ????? Yeah, Izturis
