  1. wait, we are possibly trading try mcnutt AND matt szczur, along with colvin and carpenter for............gavin floyd, and you're thinking some people would see it as "not giving up enough"? if we are trading that group of prospects, we better be getting a much better arm than floyd.
  2. the jokes you make sound like ones that michael scott would make.
  3. Why read stupidity that you know is going to piss you off? Seems like most of the local media made fun of him for it, so that's good. i think they were talking about it on the score so i wanted to know what got everyone so mad. i wish i hadn't.
  4. The travel time one? the "cutler's not a leader because he yelled at doe-eyed dane sanzenbacher and hurt his feelings" one.
  5. you essentially said firing hendry and hiring someone good would never happen. [expletive], that must have been a dark time. indeed
  6. you essentially said firing hendry and hiring someone good would never happen.
  7. Thomas after age 31 year (career): .320/.440/.573, 301 HR, 1040 RBI, 968 R, 1076 BB Pujols after age 31 year (career): .328/.420/.617, 445 HR, 1329 RBI, 1291 R, 975 BB In other words, LOLWUT??? you must mean at, not after
  8. also, mojo was wrong, way wrong
  9. That's pretty funny. In my defense, though, we didn't sign a young, outsider GM. We signed a young, insider GM. :D I did like the "there are only so many Theo Epsteins" comment. I clearly didn't have any idea how awesome Ricketts really was. just hilarious to see what has actually transpired after speculating so much. we climbed the first mountain!
  10. i would love to have Oswalt.
  11. They apparently think Winn represents a precedent for a high return. That's absolutely hilarious. Andy MacPhail is pretty much a perfect corollary here. The return was a non-descript A-ball pitcher. andy macphail is exactly the precedent. there's no way they can justify taking a major league player or a top prospect.
  12. I checked back at this post a couple nights ago... I'm pretty pleased with myself. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=58414&p=2514036&hilit=+Maybe+I%27m+crazy+#p2514036 check dew's response to my post a few posts up.
  13. It's unbelievable how big of a douche this guy is. "@sportalkmatt: 1908. Enough said. Enjoy the victory lap Cubs media You still have Zambrano/Soriano. Theo is awesome and will be missed but STL is in the WS" I just retweeted that from 2 accounts with #butthurt in front of it. Perrault is worse that Kaplan. He goes out of his way to pick fights with all kinds of media members. i have been heckling him. his girlfriend sideline sports lady tweeted at me in his defense, but he hasn't answered. i'm sure he's got a lot of the same from other cub fans.
  14. Mike Murphy even trumped Rosenbloom last Saturday. I had the misfortune of hearing him rant how the hold up at the time was just yet another in a "long line of failures courtesy of Tom Ricketts. He then went on a rampage insisting that the "right way" to have handled this would have been for Ricketts to go to the Red Sox, ask for permission to talk to Theo, then offer them compensation and get them to agree to it...BEFORE HE EVEN TALKS TO EPSTEIN. oh, the guy with the terrible voice making that argument is Murphy? He's an absolute moron. his voice is worse than mike north's.
  15. we just need 5 years out of Fielder, then Vogelbach will be ready to be fat and powerful.
  16. it's a mixture of not caring and every single thing going against us.
  17. please more stuff go wrong for the illini please, i don't think it's been nearly enough.
  18. i can't believe there are still people here who claim that theo doesn't care about stats. talk about denial. while he's not straight sabr, he's definitely not from the old school of thought, so you can give up that ghost right now, haters.
  19. i tweeted at him for that one. no answer thus far.
  20. haha, huge twitter flame war between the kapman and matt perrault sportstalkmatt Matt Perrault @ Wow - don't break your arm with that back slap RT @thekapman @sportstalkmatt Dude stop. Chgo media dominated the story and you know it. thekapman David Kaplan @ @sportstalkmatt Just have to keep you honest after reading some of your nonsensical tweets. sportstalkmatt Matt Perrault @ @thekapman Once you report what is the Red Sox are getting - then I will give you all the credit. Theo to the Cubs is not exclusive to you thekapman David Kaplan @ @sportstalkmatt Never said it was. But it was a story broken by Chgo media. Boston got played by John Henry. Deal was done before today. sportstalkmatt Matt Perrault What was i wrong about? I am just saying until Sox get comp. deal is not done RT @thekapman: @Heems4Cy @sportstalkmatt Well said.
  21. there are no yankees in our division, nor is there a friedman. so we got that goin for us
