  1. 18 million dollar long reliever? which for lou means mop up duty
  2. i kind of feel like that about when i was at game 5 of the NLCS when the cubs went up 3-1 in the series. the stadium was all cubs fans and at the time, we thought we had basically just won the pennant and were going to the world series. i'll never forget what the place was like after the game. the tunnels were completely swarming with cubs fans just yelling and high fiving everyone that walked past. people were doing the hop/high five thing that sosa/alou/lofton did in the outfield after wins too. it was completely insane. craziest sports moment of my life, even though it ended up being meaningless. This is so angsty and stupid and just flat-out wrong. I swear, some Cubs fans don't deserve a WS. this doesn't even really make sense. are you telling me how i feel about that season? or are you saying that the horrible collapse after game 4 didn't take away any of the impact that the previous games had?
  3. i turned the cubs on for like 15 minutes tonight, which was the first time ive actually watched them in a couple weeks i think. it took about 2 minutes of watching to see lou put marmol in with the bases loaded, then another 10 minutes to see loud bunt with one of our lone hot hitters to put a guy in RISP for our 2 black holes in the lineup. looooouuuuuuu
  4. not really anything new here. i think we all knew that hendry would never fire lou. hendry needs to be the one to fall first.
  5. please don't trade ANY prospects to attempt to fix this train wreck of a team.
  6. whatever. i want this season to get as ugly as possible

  8. it was sweet dee
  9. that basically weakens your argument. just sayin... i agree he's pretty overrated though
  10. niemi has a .918 save percentage in the playoffs
  11. i've always thought he looks exactly like this guy
  12. i just want to know why he's so shiny
  13. if all the stuff about WWW trying to sell LBJ/JC as a package deal is true, then that's an enormous advantage we have over the knicks. obviously.
  14. i'd definitely take the stanley cup, but i had to think about it for a second
  15. simmons has been pretty hard on lebron these last few days.
  16. hmm hmm, i guess thats what it could be. i was wondering wtf that was. the only thing i could think of was that it was supposed to be a swimming motion since they were moving onto to face the sharks, but i figured that was too lame/cheesy.
  17. i liked this part of the game thread description on the sharks sbnation board. it seriously is beyond idiotic.
  18. I'll add Silva to that sentiment too. If someone had told me all 3 of those guys would be producing at a high level, I would have thought the Cubs would be having a hell of a hot start. Baseball is a strange game indeed. Yeah it's pretty annoying. Three of our starters have been pretty good and most of the starters on offense are doing pretty good. Why the hell aren't we winning? the cubs have been outscored by 14 runs
  19. - gold medal - named best forward at the olympics - stanley cup - conn smythe that would be a pretty spectacular year for 22 year old jonathan toews, and it cold VERY easily happen.
  20. considering you need pitching and have extra outfielders, i don't understand why you haven't accepted already. i was always extremely skeptical of how high upton was going this season. he's still only 22
  21. Yeah no, I don't think it was erik. Cause whoever this was was like why not just post picks of fetuses and aliens instead of your newborns. yeah, i didn't think it was erik
  22. I doubt it. They outshot Colorado 51-17, couldn't score and lost on an own goal in Game 3 of that series to fall behind 2-1 but came back to win the next three and the series. touche. Hadn't thought about that. yeah but the avalanche weren't close to what the hawks are right now
  23. Unfortunately, I couldn't watch this game. I'm planning on rewatching it later, but can you guys tell me how it went? All I got from my brother was that the Sharks dominated the 1st and the Hawks dominated the 3rd.
  24. i think formerly snayke was being sarcastic
  25. i see that phil jackson is up to his usual douchebag antics again
