  1. Yes, I understand that (if you were talking to me).
  2. MLB Tonight crew criticizing Dale for pitching to Bruce.
  3. I was trying to think of the ass that predicted that. lol
  4. And he wins it. LOL, you just can't imagine this.
  5. I can't believe it's Izturis batting for the win right now.
  6. Our Cub reality sucks so completely right now.
  7. Wow, badness. I hope they are just pulling back a bit for the playoffs, 'cuz this isn't what I've seen this year.
  8. Castro/Rizzo/Fonzi 1/18. Yeah. Holy [expletive] crap.
  9. Terrible goal. I can't shake the idea that the Blackhawks' horrible PP will come back to haunt them in the playoffs.
  10. Rizz & Fonzi: combined 0-12, 4ks
  11. Soul

    Rizzo

    ...but it doesn't help when he puts up an 0-6 spot with 3 K's, that's for sure.
  12. This is where basketball gets brutal. The game is over. Stop fouling.
  13. Soul

    Rizzo

    I'm willing to just go with it. Rizzo's been great, forget the average.
  14. heheh.
  15. By my count, 19 of the 25 men on the current active roster were either acquired or promoted to the roster by the Epstein/Hoyer regime. It's time they start getting the credit for what's happening. And as we all know, the essence of the Epstein/Hoyer regime currently inhabits A-AA. As hard as it is to stomach for those in demand of instant gratification, by the time we can truly deem them as successes or failures, the time to extend them or let them walk will be drawing near. As I've said before, Epstein's put himself in a great situation. Either A. he brings the Cubs to glory and becomes the Curse Slayer B. leaves them as bad as they were when he found them, but with a much smaller payroll and his reputation allowing him to land another big contract or C. We're not quite where we want to be but have a strong farm system, which is all credited to his regime, and will either be extended, or land a big deal elsewhere. You don't think if he fails here, the bloom will be off the rose a little bit?
  16. I think that thing is a giant tumor growing out of Lorias black soul.
  17. But the extra media will take away valuable seats at training camp.
  18. Want to believe that. The slightest doubt has begun to creep in now...
  19. I probably wouldn't go. But then again, I wouldn't complain about how the team is run after not going, even during playoff runs. Those fans are terrible, and deserve nothing. The fact that the Marlins have World Series championships is a travesty. What's happening now is lovely, delicious justice and it needs to continue.
  20. We had better be the Yankees of baseball if we're doing all this. We can be the Yankees of the central without it. Eh, I'm with jersey. They've got to start spending money at the major league level at some point, and over the past few months I've been disappointed with what appears to be a clear signal that they will delay that part of the plan. I was expecting contention in 2014, and it seemed quite reasonable back when Ricketts took over. I don't like the shifting sands of expectations that are taking place here. It doesn't need to take forever to do this. 2016 is forever -- too long.
  21. If they suck for the rest of eternity it won't be long enough.
  22. Could be nothing more than his financial advisors seeing what they might be able to get for it.
  23. people flipped out over every thing they've done. then....nothing.
