When was the last game that was won by passion ???? Passion doesn't win baseball games. Good hitting and good pitching wins baseball games. Take all that passion and store it at body temperature and out of direct sunlight. I don't think passion wins, but I am just saying that the fact that Lou is a screamer who isn't screaming could very easily indicate his passion is declining. I never said I liked his ranting and raving, but that is who he is, or maybe, who he was. Yeah, this team depresses me, too.

yeah, that was a good one. i don't really agree with the whole "Lou doesn't care" angle. he doesn't look/act like he doesn't care to me. he looks/acts like a guy who is really just out of ideas. i have a lot of issues with him, but there's really only so much he can do. getting kicked out simply to get kicked out or "fire up your team" is stupid and pointless. it's not like Bradley, Soriano, etc. will start hitting because the manager has a melt down on the field one day. I agree that sort of thing is stupid, but it is also Lou's MO. He's been that way throughout his managerial career including early in his Cubs tenure. The fact that he's "mellowed" tells me his passion just isn't there. Whether that matters is another debate. When was the last game that was won by passion ???? Passion doesn't win baseball games. Good hitting and good pitching wins baseball games. Take all that passion and store it at body temperature and out of direct sunlight.

Eff Jim Hendry. This is the kind of talk that will earn you a vacation.

I've still got 3 tickets left for tonight's game. Sec 404, face=$50. If anybody wants to go, call or PM me.

I didn't realize this was not an offense. Thanks for correcting me, o wise moderator. Oh, I don't know.... it seems rather offensive to me !! :wink:

The game likely won't be over by 10, remember that's 9 central. Remind me later to give you my x-rated response to this post.

I've got 3 extra tickets to this game. Sec 404, $50 face. Anybody that wants to go, just call or PM me.

I remember when the CUBS used to be able to score 9 runs in a single game. [/sigh]

Well sure, but weren't you excited when the Staleys put together a pro football team in Chicago that you could follow at the ripe young age you were back then? :) Excited ?? Hell, I coached Georgie Halas when he was at Illinois. I was thrilled to death to see one of my kids make it big time !! :wink:

OK, I stand corrected.

Well, let me see..... there was: 1907 CUBS 1908 CUBS 1921 Stahleys (BEARS) 1932 BEARS 1933 BEARS 1934 BLACK HAWKS 1938 BLACK HAWKS 1940 BEARS 1941 BEARS 1943 BEARS 1946 BEARS 1947 FIGHTING ILLINI 1952 FIGHTING ILLINI 1961 BLACK HAWKS 1963 BEARS 1964 FIGHTING ILLINI 1985 BEARS 1991 BULLS 1992 BULLS 1993 BULLS 1996 BULLS 1997 BULLS 1998 BULLS What is that ?? 23 in 100 years? Oh well, it was a slow century, eh?

hoss, you want to double check your numbers there. He's not hitting anywhere near .400 on 0-0 and 0-1.
