how many people really stuck with that team? i remember game threads that were 2 or 3 pages long, mostly fred doing play by play for himself. they were a complete waste of time to follow (except on rich hill days). I'll say one thing, it was a lot less stressful to watch the team at the end of 2006. Losing was expected. If they won, it was gravy. But if they blew a 5 run lead, it wasn't really a big deal because you hated pretty much everyone on the roster. Here's the O'Malley game thread.. viewforum.php?f=26&st=0&sk=t&sd=d&start=640 Beautiful lineup that day Cubs Pierre, CF The Riot, 2B Barrett, C Ramirez, 3B Phil Nevin, 1B Pagan, RF Murton, LOF Perez, SS O'Malley, P Wonder what Rammy was thinking when taking the field w/ that crew of crap....
