    Sidenote: i honestly don't care what a harper signing would do to our chances to sign 30 year old KB to a monstrous deal.

    No idea what will happen but I wouldnt doubt if Bryce definitely wants to be a Cub. I met and talked alot of baseball with Harper once. He did say him and KB talk about being in the same lineup "all the time"... this was 2 summers ago. I know some people who have spoken with KB's dad who say he always tries to play up that they weren't really good friends growing up and it's overblown and blah blah. But maybe they are better friends now. It sure seems like it. And maybe (actually, no, not maybe) KB's dad is just one of those horsefeathers baseball dads (yes, he is).

    all i got from this is it seems like it's gonna be a long horsefeathering time before the bears are slated to play in vegas

    this is what it looks like when you blindly buy into propaganda

    Most of us are! For the record, I want Bryce Harper, too. But let's just be grateful we all decided to be Cubs fans, because I imagine to small and mid market fans, we sound like some real spoiled bitches. Those owners aren't poor either.

    HA...i mean if only in the sense that concussions are a red herring (at least for football) to try to make it seem like football would be safer if concussions are reduced. the constant collisions are the real issue, as the brain is being dinged up constantly. i'd imagine it's much the same for other high contact sports.

    additionally, does anyone remember how the whole courting maddon while renteria was still employed (and had been declared back for 2015) thing went?

    I feel like there's also a reason even the most pessimistic local reports refuse to completely slam the door on it by couching what they say with stuff like "as of right now" or "if they move money" and whatever else they've used.

    The Lester thing was treated with a lot of skepticism, IIRC, because the Cubs were still terrible and it was a lot of money. The Heyward thing was treated with skepticism because people didn't think they would go out and make a huge signing two years in a row, IIRC. The Tanaka thing was treated with a ton of skepticism because of the rebuild "they're not gonna spend big on this guy when they're 8 million years away blah blah" But there were obviously rumors about all of them. It wasn't completely out of nowhere.

    They also didn’t tell everyone they couldn’t afford him. The Otani courting was also very public as it happened Even though I'm not even sure that's true (at least, being made so from the Cubs side of things), there was just about nothing to negotiate with Ohtani because teams could either pay him nothing or a little more than nothing.

    That's a really good comparison actually. Incidentally, Helton wore No. 17 because of Gracie. puke

    John DeFilippo fired. He was one of the main guys I wanted the Bears to hire. I might be dumb.

    I feel bad for hating latroy as much as I did

    i love that they followed that up by losing to the cardinals the next week (if i'm remembering the weeks right)

    How generous of them to pay for the renovation of their own building instead of their failed attempt to secure public money for it.

    It’s why Mark Gonzales is one of my favorite follows for Cubs stuff. He doesn’t speculate/push things, he just reports stuff as it happens. At least on twitter. Not to mention his elite photography skills. Also for typing that guys went 2 x 4 instead of 2/4
