David

I remember those. sidenote - i think i hung on with AIM until like 2012 or something before i just started using gchat instead i also remember there being some other kind of web-based chat at some point...was that an nsbb premium thing?

The whole nsbblol debacle still cracks me up. I AM MEPH. VORP YOU!

deuce baseman is still around btw

my thoughts exactly

Would they go Arrieta, Quintana, Lester then Hendricks? That's what the ESPN guys were saying during the telecast last night. i would be very pissed if we were to lose a playoff series without hendricks getting to take the mound

Well, there was that one dude who tried to call Hendry. oh damn you

We had a guy call Hendry and convince him to trade for Rich Harden

Some others for consideration: David is a robot The initial notice was a physical appearance black GEOVANY SOTO (too old for consideration? Probably) Tiny Face Rizzo Thick Onion Gravy Zambrano's black guy wasn't there another hccf contribution having to do with trying to attack a rattle snake with a tree branch or something? derwood's jorts derwood saying lots of things about things he doesn't actually know about mojo's hatred of shorts and flip flops tree's nachos the idea of the nomar thread being this holy grail of nsbb merely because it was lost and we will never get to see it again

what are the actual winning percentages without the potentially misleading "winning records" designation? either way, i don't think it's worth a thought about anything and a silly thing to bring up to try to diminish the quality of our opponent. it's a 5 game playoff series. let's see what happens.

and we have played ... same thought i had lol

Ohhhh that's delicious. One time a few years back, in the 2014/2015 offseason I was talking to a friend of a friend Cardinals fan about how good the Cubs were going to be. He lives in Chicago and has a tendency to be nice and placating, so this time he went on a thing about "I hope the Cubs are good, I really do." I was like "you really don't. It's gonna happen and you're going be sad for a bunch of years." I'm not sure what that guy is doing these days but I'm guessing that watching the Cubs dump beer all over their visitors lockerroom isn't especially enjoyable. I wonder how many Cards fans said patronizing stuff like that to Cubs fans in the years leading up to 2015 and I'm kinda hoping it stings a little more or that they blame themselves for jinxing the team or something. But mostly I'm just happy the schedulers set it up this way. Peace out Cardinals! Comeuppance is bitch! At a Cubs/Cards game in 2014 at Wrigley, I was drunken-loudly bashing Kolten Wong and mentioning how much someone has to suck to get picked off to lose a World Series game. The old Cards fan guy in front of me who was being fake nice at random times all game got all in a smug huff and said something like, "Any idea what it feels like to be in a World Series?" and I just said something to the effect of, "I'll know pretty soon." Not that cool of a story but I love thinking about what that idiot must feel like now. Reminds me also of opening night in 2015, waiting in one of those terrible bathroom lines, some Cards fan was talking horsefeathers and I told him I'd take our next 10 years over theirs without thinking twice. Got another smug response and even other Cubs fans were saying stuff like, "Pump the brakes, not even close." Dummies.

GR: You know what it's been 6 months and the Cubs just won the division, its time to let bygones be bygones and stop by NSBB *logs on and sees this post* GR: you MOTHER [expletive]! This is easily the best ever out of your eight million posts

i'm super happy for jose quintana right now

I'm not sure which one I am. Wait, yeah, I am. Shame on you for not liking the Soler for Davis trade! ETA: I actually don't even know if that's true. That's just what everybody said the other day. I didn't like the idea of trading a position player with his talent/minor league track record and the control he had left for an injured closer on one year, but it obviously turned out extreme best case.

I'm not sure which one I am. Wait, yeah, I am.

Just want to confirm...the rebuild was worth it now, right? well, theo's only now matching hendry's playoff appearance total.

i think we might've been better off if we'd traded davis before the deadline

uh they won back to back divisions in 07-08, come on CSN
