    Yes, all teams that miss the playoffs are in the lottery, and the Knicks have been a likely lottery team for the past few weeks at least. They've really tanked it out after a decent mid-season.

    DON'T PLAY DOWN TO THESE BOZOS. Thanks.

    I'm not that well versed, but it seems to me that Levin has no experience with a big time franchise. He's done a nice job with the Wolves, making it a family-friendly experience for the fans at a good price. But isn't this what all minor league clubs offer? The Wolves, by the way, are associated with the Atlanta Thrashers, not any Chicago franchise. It can be debated whether Levin has been responsible for the Wolves' success, or if it has really been due to solid player personnel moves coming from the Thrashers (who are, by the way, now reaping the rewards of those moves). In other words, if the Wolves were associated with the Blackhawks would we even be talking about Levin? I doubt it. I think Levin would be totally and completely out of his league. But hey, I could be wrong. Remember: we get to do this thing, in all likelihood, one more time before we die. Given that, do we want to give our beloved Cubbies over to a total wildcard like Levin? I'd prefer an experienced, successful big time owner.

    I don't know about the rest of you. But it occurs to me that other teams sometimes win when the opposition scores more than 3 runs. More than 4, even! Heck, the Cards won semi-regularly last year with their opponents scoring more than 5. So here comes Captain Obvious: why can't we be more like those other teams, instead of constantly complaining when a pitcher doesn't have a Cy Young type outing?

    Alrighty Lou, they're struggling. Time to wack 'em over the head a little...or something.

    Now 3-0 Will he take a walk? Doubtful. :twisted: Reverse psychology. It works. :wink:

    It wasn't that way pre-TJ surgery. I didn't think it was this bad post TJS. I remember it being much better than this. Pre-surgery he was flat out amazing, like Vizquel in his prime. Our scouts botched this one big time. Average fans knew it though. Inexcusable for pro scouts to botch something laymen all know.

    This will end badly.

    Here comes fatty.

    We suck, welcome back.

    Anyone can do better than this.

    They're gonna score, I can feel it.

    I hate losing during that day, not being able to scream at my TV, then going home and having nothing to yell at because the game is over. DAMMIT! ....just doesn't work as well on a message board.

    At least Lee still refuses to suck.
  15. Soul
    and it won't make a difference because you can't yell someone into not making fielding errors. True. But if I have to watch sucky baseball then I'd prefer a few Lou blowups just for the entertainment value. I hope he doesn't keep that stuff in the locker room.

    No, seems like it happens all the time. I'm sure the stats show it isn't the case, but it still seems that way.

    Eat the children! Carlos Lee burger.

    Irish freaking potato famine.
  19. Soul
    Famine. I'm starvin over here.

    Settling down after giving up 3 runs in the first still doens't help us much. We should be able to win when the starting pitching gives up 3. /cosign

    Someone wake me when it's feast time.

    Installing a rubber room? It's too expensive. A lobotomy will work just as well, and can be self-administered.

    I don't know how high any team's winning percentages are when they go down 3 runs in the top of the 1st and they have Jason Marquis on the mound. :? sure, for this game, but people are writing off Marquis for the length of the contract because of one bad inning I think people are writing off Marquis because of one bad career. Wow, joined up yesterday and already picking iFights in every thread you've posted in. Great job. You're a welcome addition here. Isn't that Goony is disguise? :? What's going on here? Well, color me totally confused. Goony's login went kaput post-hack, so he made a new profile. That's him. Wow, that sucks. Sorry to attack goony, I didn't know. go ahead and attack him. he likes it.

    You are all delusional. The Cubs game was canceled due to snow. No baseball at all. None. Don't touch me.

    Let's have a look at this pitching line: 160.7 IP 7-13 W/L record 4.82 ERA 1.512 WHIP 82 ERA+ Age....25 1st full year of starting. Should his team have relegated this pitcher to the bullpen in favor of an aging vet with no velocity who is coming off arm surgery? In short, should this have been enough to determine that this pitcher wasn't going to be a good starter? BTW, Guzman hasn't even had the benefit of a full season of starting, so even this is skewed against Angel. Hope you didn't say yes, this pitcher is Randy Johnson.
