    Is he for sure starting? If so, Happy Pawelek day everyone!

    :shock: Really? How about faulting them for being incompetent as owners? Again, aside from not removing any or all of the MacPhail/Hendry/Baker trio, you can't fault the Trib. They put up a good payroll and don't threaten to slash it if the team falters. They financed the addition to Wrigley. Getting mad at them for being the greedy corporation is misguided. Sadly it's not. The Trib was making an insane profit for years while under spending. Over the last two years they have jacked up ticket prices , added seats, and more advertising all while keeping the payroll the same. Can you imagine the money the Trib would rake in if the Cubs won the World Series? For them to have Andy MacPhail at the top this long means they do not care about winning. It's time for them to sale its a shame see how low this team has fallen. In the end, they are supposed to keep a profit. They've done what an owner should do financially, especially for one that's a publically owned company. Say what you want about not getting rid of management, I agree, but when it comes to money they are holding up their end.

    THAT is way too much. If it takes that much, then the Cubs are back in the same position, but with an soon-to-be-very expensive player and MORE questions about the pitching. Don't get me wrong, I love Cabrera, but I wouldn't try to acquire Cabrera, unless the deal is reasonable. And 5 young (ie cheap) players are not REASONABLE. I think the Cubs could get Jonny Gomes for Gallagher and Guzman, which would be worth it. No way Gallager and Guzman nets Gomes, or it should've been done yesterday.

    hooray Please keep hitting at a more age appropriate level, Fox.
  6. Transmogrified Tiger
    Pretty much the only thing you can fault the Trib for is not making front office changes. Not being cheap, not turning a profit, or anything else related to money.
  7. Transmogrified Tiger
    Nuts.
  8. Transmogrified Tiger
    Alright France, time to aim for 450
  9. Transmogrified Tiger
    After watching this series this weekend, I'd debate that "good manager" part. his team has the best record in baseball, obviously he is doing something right Also known as: having good players on your team
  10. Transmogrified Tiger
    man, another gem from Wynalda "Peter Crouch is skinny" [long pause]
  11. Transmogrified Tiger
    33 minutes until France-South Korea kickoff
  12. Transmogrified Tiger
    awesome

    What is the story behind Ronaldo's lack of endurance? I don't think it's a lack of endurance, I think it's more of the fact that he's done absolutely nothing on the field in the Cup so far.
  14. Transmogrified Tiger
    iirc, blanco usually catches prior anyway. This is the 3rd game in a row though.
  15. Transmogrified Tiger
    Lalas on Ronaldo: "That's the last time I'm sticking up for that...bloated waste of space."
  16. Transmogrified Tiger
    Can the rhetoric. As long as Walker is in this blue funk of his, he's not the best player. 05/31 - 06/17 AB R H 2B 3B HR TB RBI BB SO BA OBP SLG OPS Walker 56 5 10 1 0 0 11 3 5 3 0.179 0.246 0.196 0.442 You betting that today is the day that Walker will snap out of it ?? I'll take some of that action. Seriously Fred? You'd rather Womack or Neifi play because Walker is having a poor 2 week stretch?
  17. Transmogrified Tiger
    Well that settles it. If the US advances they'll get Brazil.
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    Crap, Adriano with a goal in the 49th minute
  19. Transmogrified Tiger
    In tangentially related US news, the Socceroos are in a scoreless tie with Brazil at the half. If they can manage even a tie, they have a leg up going into the final game in goal differential. Since there's no chance of the US winning our group, it would be huge if Australia managed to win their group.
  20. Transmogrified Tiger
    This is how I felt too. Add in the fact that Buffon was there and just didn't make the save, and considering we had already been robbed of two players, I think we deserved that goal.
  21. Transmogrified Tiger
    Did Japan just miss a wide open chance? The clock on Univision is only at 6 minutes, but the TV schedule only has it going until the next hour(10 AM here)
  22. Transmogrified Tiger
    Why in the world am I seeing infomercials instead of Japan-Croatia? EDIT: Thank you Univision.
  23. Transmogrified Tiger
    He'll definitely punk our offense.
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    Also, is there any doubt now that this is the Group of Death?
  25. Transmogrified Tiger
    I've never had an ingrown toenail, but I went with that.
