    That September was so awesome.. I went to 3 of the 5 games against the Cards at Wrigley (including the one that was robbed when Alou's double down the line was ruled foul)..

    Eek.. I sure hope they're not talking 5 years...

    The papers are reporting this morning that they're very close to an agreement and one should be reached in the next few days. Am I missing some new piece of information?

    I wouldnt' mind if they made all the exterior walls brick...Not sure they'd ever do a project like that that was purely cosmetic though. Not a big fan of Wrigley's present exterior appearance.

    The Sosa situation was last year... The offseason following 2004 and leading into 2005.

    Kerry Wood won't be taking a pay cut as long as; a. Some other team will be willing to pay him more guaranteed. b. (more importantly) Scott Boras is his agent. Scott Boras is his agent? Not that I'm aware of. I thought the Hendricks brothers represented Kerry. Pat Rooney and Greg Landry are according to Cot's Baseball Contracts, FWIW. Thought something along those lines.

    We might've swept that series if not for Dusty's fear of Lenny Harris.. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

    Do we really want a collision at home on the last day of ST?

    There's an understatement if I've ever heard one. As for wanting Lee, I would've agreed with you a year ago. His 2005 left much to be desired, though.

    *sigh* I know he's progressing and all that. But its so depressing...Cant we have one healthy season out of prior and wood... Blame the idiots running our team for that one. Not that this dead horse needs to be beaten down anymore. Contention. Last year. Right. :roll:

    http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-060331cubsbits,1,2643580.story?coll=cs-home-headlines Not sure if anyone had seen this. I had always thought that there was no way 13 days off would set him that far back. Maybe a little bit, but there was also the chance he'd come back stronger. This might sound stupid, and I'm no major league pitcher (or doctor/trainer for that matter), but when I get lazy and miss a 7-10 days of working out, most of the time I come back stronger than I was. Strength is built during recovery time, after all. I'm gonna go out on a bit of a limb and say Mark will come back in late April/early May, shortly after Wood...possibly/probably before Miller.

    Not just that, but he didn't wait long to invoke his trademark phrase either. Search is disabled, too. So he must've been searching manually through all the threads for that one. LMAO

    Don't I wish.. APRIL FOOLS

    Wow...Delino was Neifi before Neifi was Neifi. Speaking of bad roster photos... http://espn.go.com/i/mlb/profiles/players/4459.jpg

    What's so bad about that deal? It would have sounded insane to give Prior for almost anybody a year or two ago, but I'd have to seriously consider a deal for a guy like Cano at this point. At least Cano plays. You cannot be serious.
  17. David
    I was worried about it anyway. Tonight really didn't make a difference.

    REX!! :D You'd think the person with the DePaul pic would be happier about April 7th's singers... Meh. I go to DePaul. Their sports (or any college sports, for that matter) mean very little to me. That'll be nice for the family on opening day, though.
  19. David
    REX!! :D

    Uh, he's already been named the fourth starter. Oh. heh. Well, uh..... he's not the 5th starter now, is he? Hrmm? Yeah. Thought so. :p LOL... The best part is that he's making his first start against the Cardinals on ESPN Sunday Night.
  21. David
    Ah, hell. I'll join in on the fun, too. Care to wager on that?
  22. David
    I really don't understand why people are so bothered by things like this. I just couldn't care less.

    who the hell is Walter E Smith????? It's a furniture store. "Walter E. Smithe You dream it. We build it."

    That is a "what if" scenerion. Because "what if" Marshall is more then holding his own in the alloted team? Personally, I think Williams is a step out the door, and Rusch is a step closer to the pen, with Marshall making the club out of ST. I definately could see Marshall sticking with the Cubs, longer then the "short stint" some people think he has. I personally hope he does good and becomes a solid starter for us. Is that too much of a hope? He looks like he throws good stuff, and throws hard. A hard throwing LHP is not so common and something to covet. And dammit, he's tall!! His #1 asset is his confidence on the mound. Let's hope he can keep that in the majors. If I had my dream it is that Marshall does great and Wood & Miller come back and dominate, making a rotation by ASB of. . Zambrono Wood Miller Maddux Marshall Yea...Let's just relegate our best or second best pitcher to the bullpen. :roll: Prior isn't going to be gone past the ASB.

    Like it or not, Pierre is the only legitimate option as a leadoff hitter for this team. You can talk about Pie all you want, but he is not a leadoff hitter and if the Cubs try to make him into one I think they will regret it. If the Cubs do trade Pierre they had better find someone to bat first in the lineup unless they plan on putting Hairston or Walker in the leadoff spot. I still say Walker is the best option to leadoff on this team.. with or without Pierre.. The balance swings Pierre's way if he can rebound from last year...but we'll just have to wait and see on that.
