    I could not believe how ridiculous she sounded.....could not believe it. And she went on and on and on and on...... Did you know she really, really, loves words....and read the dictionary a a child? She was really happy that everyone could take time out of their extraordinary lives to share such an amazing social experience too. Thats almost an exact quote.....and the woman was serious.

    At one point Pat brought up that she used some big word on Letterman......I was really hoping that Ron was going to say something about her lifting up her shirt...and could she do that now.....but it did not happen. That could have saved it.

    You are correct. Don't leave out Mr. Miles who mentions in the comments section of his article today over at the Herald how Bradley snaps at reporters who are asking him an easy question in the locker room. Maybe Bradley doesnt feel like answering innane questions all the time from the Cubs "beat" reporters slinking around all the time. So what? I've noticed a few times in the last week or so Bruce Miles mentioning how Bradley doesnt fit and "should go" (paraphrasing). Obviously some of these reporters have had their feelings hurt and it is coloring their opinions on the matter. You can certainly see it in the way they write about Bradley. That being said....Milton certainly can take some of the blame for this uninspiring club.

    Larry Bittner......please.

    Probably right. Sad.

    Whoever said that love and sex always have to go together.....was wrong....very wrong.

    Love the grays. Understated and cool. Will look great with the all blue regular helmet.

    I guess they were not all that "Jumbo".....but they seemed unobtrusive in the corners. Anyone at the game care to comment on the way they looked? Were they helpful? I dont think a couple long-thin ones on either side of the scoreboard (or a big one on top?) would be that big of a deal.

    They have a whole section devoted to Cubs Obsesssion (Whats the Score) with 15 threads on the front page of that section devoted to Cubs in some way. It's a matter of degree. Thats all. 15? Must be that new math they're teaching in the schools these days. When I first made the thread there were 15 threads. I have not gone back to the page since. Just a guess...but I bet it changes as the days go by. Tell you what. Count the Cubs threads over there going back 3 pages deep and report back. Im not sure what your point is. Are you saying that they dont obsess over the Cubs over there?

    Congrats to the Sox. Both Chicago teams in postseason. Killer!
  14. Connor McConnor
    No real whining going on here. I hope the Sox make it too. The point was the amount and the degree of it over there. And from the looks of it goes on all the time. Not just when the team just happened to win the World Series. It's not a matter of "we are better than they are" either. I was surpised at the amount of time devoted to the Cubs over there.

    I find it interesting, and telling, that even in light of the White Sox recent troubles there are virtually no threads about them on nsbb. Contrast this with the White Sox site where there are 16 Cubs related threads on the front page of this section alone: http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=18 It's the "What's the Score?" section. Get it? We are so drunk and not paying attention to the game that we don't know what the score is . This is not even counting the ever present whining about media attention....and all the rest that is literally all over the site over there. I used to think that the whole White Sox envy for the Cubs was over blown....but after looking around over there I see that it is quite a real phenonema. I learned something while reading through the site. The White Sox won a world series before the Cubs. It seems to be in almost every thread.

    I'll take atmosphere over the mall anyday. Screw parking. Take public transportation. The last thing we need is more reason to drive places, idling in traffic for hours. Mallparks suck. Who is talking about a mallpark? All that land at where Cabrini Green will eventually not be, surrounded by a really cool upcoming neighborhood, closer to downtown with the skyline right behind the outfield. A) That would be nearly impossible. B) How would that be at all different from Wrigleyville? You think they are just going to magically create "cool" bars and restaurants that beat the ones near Wrigley? C) How is this going to solve the parking issue? There are a lot of nice bars on Divison street. More would appear. THere is enough land over there for parking too. Why would it be impossible? The large housing projects are being torn down...and rightly so. The skyline in the background with a bigger, better, brighter, Wrigley would be a dream come true. And NOT the Cell north.

    45 NEW! Sooner than later please. Lots of parking....more seats.....2008 amenities. Wrigley Field is like having a 1 car garage.

    Of course if Lee gets hot and leads the Cubs to the World Series....he will be King of Chicago. Or not.
  19. Connor McConnor
    I think he is homesick....I dont think time is going to help him. I think he has learned that money isnt everything and he just wants to go home. Hope Im wrong.
  20. Connor McConnor
    Your post is correct. The part that is not required is: It's normal for fans to want to vent after a loss....and after the last couple of weeks it's certainly understandable that Cub fans might be getting a little nervous as to what the future holds. The condenscending "you dont know what you are talking about" stuff is far worse than a casual fan worrying about his team.

    This board has an underlying smarminess/smugness that is most unpleasant.
  22. Connor McConnor
    Killer!!!! The pitcher reactions are just a blast. I like when they just look down and do a little body quake.

    If you dont think the Cubs are fully capable of losing 4-5 in a row.....and the Brewers capable of winning 4-5 in a row.....then you must not be a Cubs fan. Well, he isn't... Well there ya go.
