    What?? He's got a damn good right to be pissed about that series. The Spurs were allowed to be thugs, and the league rewarded them for it. That series was, quite simply, handed to the Spurs by David Stern. There's no other way to describe it.
  2. Soul
    Spurs in 5 max, mostly likely a sweep. Much as I like the Jazz, there's little question they are out of their league for now.

    http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/cubs/393699,CST-SPT-csep20.article Honestly, I'm hearing so many disparate things about what is really going to happen, I think it's safe to say the media is essentially clueless. This is worse than the cavalcade of false trade rumors we get every year during the winter meetings.
  4. Soul
    No, he's got to assume a greater role when we relegate Eyre & Howry to cleanup duty, remember? LOL.
  5. Soul
    Might be time to watch some Jazz/Spurs. 2/3 ain't bad, but again the bullpen just suck balls losing games like this is ridiculous.
  6. Soul
    Yeah, catch 'em while ARod is in a slump. Another hit. Cotts is junk.
  7. Soul
    You'll see more of that. He's just not all that good.
  8. Soul
    Yeah, let's shuffle the roles in the bullpen a little, give Cotts more innings. Great idea! :roll:
  9. Soul
    2 out, nobody on. Now bases loaded, 1 run in. Only the Cubs.
  10. Soul
    When the headline reads "Scrub beats Ace" you know the article is about the Cubs.
  11. Soul
    Wow that sucked. I don't think Z is going to get back to where he was in previous years.
  12. Soul
    Come on you had this inning Z.
  13. Soul
    Ack, that's not good.
  14. Soul
    Next time a scrub pitches for the first time, I'm laying money against the Cubs. It's like freaking clockwork.
  15. Soul
    Wow Soriano made that way tougher than it needed to be.
  16. Soul
    We probably would have. Thanx go to the Sox for handing us one.
  17. Soul
    Mike grounds out, not a real good AB.
  18. Soul
    Yeah, I don't think even LaRussa and all that magic pixie dust can dig the Cards out this time.
  19. Soul
    That pitch was a strike. [-( Looked like a good strike at the knees to me, too.
  20. Soul
    They'll strand him.
  21. Soul
    Unfortunately we seldom get what we want as Cub fans.
  22. Soul
    I see the Cubs have decided to suck against a first-time pitcher again. Nice work guys.
  23. Soul
    He'll stick around because of his defense in Center...If Taguchi has a job in the bigs there is a place for Cpatt. I wonder if he'll take a paycut then. $4.3mil for defense-only and a black hole in the lineup isn't all that palatte-able. Of course, maybe the market will catch up with his salary.

    Updated, .227/.290/.318 Jesus, moving away from Chicago hasn't helped one bit. I can't see Corey sticking in the majors much longer with that kind of production (or lack thereof). Another classic "athlete" pick by the Cubs. Unfortunately, baseball is very much a game of skills and CPatt appears either unwilling or unable to develop good baseball skills, namely hitting skills.

    oh yeah i really hammered that point home didn't I? By saying, "pressure hendry or something." wow how could anyone resist that terrifically supported premise. Alright, next time I'll be sure to whip out my mind reading apparatus to better discern which arguments you are serious about. i was sort of serious about it, but i was never really on the argument to begin with. i briefly mentioned it in one post. still besides the point though. guzman to the pen is a bad idea. You know, the funny thing is, I really don't like it either. I just don't see how the other options are much better. Certainly not worth making Lou out to be some kind of bumbling idiot. Actually, I read the original post on this thread and didn't find an article link. The closest I could find was a cubs.com article which says Lou promises changes on Monday or Tuesday. So I'm not sure we even know exactly what Lou has planned.
