  1. Hah, I just read about this now. For the record though, I don't think people realize how much goes on down those concourses when the Cubs aren't home. As Goony pointed to, the reason they asked him to leave is likely because there is actually construction - yah, construction - going on around the park right now and having a frail old man walking around in the middle of that probably isn't the best move. And even if the construction hadn't started yet when this happened (2 weeks ago?), there is still a ton of crap going on - and machinery driving down the concourses - when the Cubs aren't home. Could you imagine if the headline/story was "Yosh Kawano killed by forklift while wondering around the Wrigley Concourse while the Cubs were on the road. According to sources, Wrigley security personnel saw him walking on security cameras and decided to allow him to continue roaming - despite the ongoing construction/commotion." That would have landed real well. This is nothing more than the Sun Times doing what it does best - acting like a fat old hag and spreading gossip.
  2. Thats good to know, of course anyone who runs into the Phillies or Dodgers with Halladay in October wont have a lot of fun. No need to have playoff baseball if the Dodgers get him. Then again I was also sure the Cubs would roll through last year's playoffs. :D I haven't even seen anything about, but what if the Giants got Halladay. I don't think anyone could beat Lincecum, Cain, and Halladay in a playoff series. Sure they could. Because to beat the giants all you have to do is score 2 or 3 runs on a lot of days. Their offense is embarrassingly bad. Like, worse than us bad.
  3. Unless the Rockies, Pirates, or maybe the marlins have a pitcher on the market. Then there may be some competition!
  4. Central and Eastern Start Times. Ahhh, gotcha. To avoid confusion we generally would just put "6:05CDT" or something. Thanks for clarification.
  5. High socks should be mandatory. And I generally don't mind alternate uniforms.
  6. Of course you say that right before my post. The Philly Phanatic isn't as cool as Green Man, but he's pretty sweet. I'll admit he's funny on occasion, but I'm just not a big fan of mascots in baseball, period. At least not the Big Leagues.
  7. I can't stand the philly phanatic.
  8. HOw the hell do you take that, Koyie?
  9. Oh hell, it only took to the bottom of the 2nd.
  10. Victorino's drive and desire made that catch, apparently.
  11. Oh hell, it took 1/3 of an inning for them to call someone "gritty and tough"
  12. Who are these puds announcing tonight. I just saw their mugs on tv, didn't catch the names - and I don't recognize any of them except Phillips.
  13. Aaaand there it is. Fielder is your HR Derby champ.
  14. Yeah, fielder has this locked.
  15. Well, fatty's gotta hit 6.
  16. Noooo, stop zooming in on the person she's interviewing.
  17. HOly crap, Howards face looks soo much skinnier than last year.
  18. Yes, his ability to be nice to other human beings he shares a clubhouse with is the reason he is a star in baseball, you effing tool.
  19. stop talking about the ball having 'legs', berman.
  20. It would be scary to see how far some of these guys could hit one with an aluminum bat.
  21. Like I said [expletive] off. You are at a Cubs board, are you really that ignorant? Yeah I did. Because you are. And I'll remind you next time you show up there. It's the HR derby and the Cubs don't have anyone in it. Jealous whiner. Sad. We'll see who will be whining by September. Probably us..
