  1. Feb 2 2005. He traded Sosa for nothing and signed Burnitz. Sosa needed to leave. What was Hendry supposed to do, eat Sosa's salary? I don't see what else Hendry could have done with that sitation.
  2. I don't have a problem with a Cardinals fan posting on this board. There are plenty of fans of other teams that post here just like some Cubs fans that post here post on other boards. But like somebody else said, nobody here wants to see a montage of Pujols home runs regardless of whether it's well made or not. I encourage you to continue to post here and offer your opinion on how much the Cubs suck this year.
  3. That makes him 5 for 8 on the season in the #2 spot. He really saved us today! :lol: Neifi for MVP. Easily. I think I'm going to start writing him in on the All-Star ballots.
  4. I think I'm going to watch The Natural instead.
  5. That's the only thing you can do...And drink alot. That's for when I get off of work tonight...or maybe a little during. I'm bartending. Do you think I can try to sue the Cubs for trashing my liver and mental anguish? I think I have a case... If I have to go see a shrink for the Cubs, I'm going to send my bills to the Tribune Co.

  7. I am officially done being disappointed that the Cubs are sucking this year and have resorted to just laughing at their failures.
  8. We won't need one of those. That would actually help the team. You know we can't be having that. :( I could be the bunting coach. Now that's a position we need. I'll start off by working with Derrek Lee, Aramis Ramirez, Michael Barret, Matt Murton, and Ronny Cedeno. Something innovative that I'll do: I'll have them learn to bunt left-handed so they will be a step closer to first base. Maybe we can beat out some of the throws that way. I'll make situational switch hitters out of every right-handed bat on the roster. Genius, I know. HAHAHA. Downright hilarious. I love it. :lol:
  9. That play defines our season. The Hairston near catch.

  12. Except building a team with a combination of good OBP and power, and have a manager that knew how to use his players to get maximum performance. But yeah, other than that, we've tried everything. Fixed. cubbiechris said that, not me.
  13. Why? Just because Ozzie played for the Sox doesn't mean that's the answer. Francona didn't bleed Red. McKeon might be an old dude but he didn't win because of his knowledge of South Florida history. Same with Brenly in Arizona. Saying the Cubs need a manager that understands Chicago and the history is absolutely ludicrous. I know the history -- we've sucked more or less for a century. Where do I sign? Send me a finder's fee and I'll see who i can talk to. Finder's fee? You're my bench coach. Can I bee the pitching coach? I can wear out arms like the best of them. Or the hitting coach? I'm sure I can figure out a way for the Cubs to swing and miss much more gracefully.

Saying the Cubs need a manager that understands Chicago and the history is absolutely ludicrous. Okay let's get another laid back California dude....Why is that Ludicrous? Wouldn't you want a manager that has pride for his town and team? Didn't Dikta have that? Doesn't Ozzie have that? Heck this team has tried everything else! And who would you suggest be the manager?
  15. God forbid that we actually win. I was disappointed on Wednesday that we didn't bring Rusch in for Zambrano before we scored 5 runs in the 6th. If we bring Rusch in during the fourth or fifth innings, it's guaranteed that he gives up a bunch a runs and the Cubs are too demoralized to hit the ball by the sixth.

  17. Pierre is mixing it up from his usual 4-3. In the past few games I've seen multipe 6-3 and the occasional 5-3.
  18. Double play. And yes I do know runners are on second and third.
  19. Even the St. Louis Pujols would have lost those games.
  20. OMG, Neifi got an extra base hit AND an RBI. The apocalypse must be coming.
  21. And since the game is already over, why take Rusch out? Why not just make him throw 70-80 pitches whether he gives up no runs or 12 runs? Don't bring Williamson in.
  22. So what the deuce happened with Guzman? 87 pitches in 3 innings? Thats 29 pitches an inning.
  23. Our #3 hitter has 2 career home runs and averages one home run every 100 AB's. Wow. Good thing I'm not watching this one.
