  1. So what illegal supplements do you think Nolan Ryan was on? No way his body holds up for an average of 200+ innings/year for 6 years age 40-45, right? To be the barroid equivelant, Ryan would have had to go 25-3 / 1.43 / 380 Ks per year and 4 win Cy Youngs those last few years.
  2. well, duh. what other explanation would there be?
  3. grace was 2nd in ROY voting in 1988
  4. if you get the right kind of hitters in the lineup, you can easily take a light hitting catcher in the starting lineup (see: mike matheny). giving blanco the bulk of the starts wouldn't have worked well this season --- too much neifi / corey / holly type players.
  5. as an out of market fan, I can watch every cub game except those against houston and SL (and most of those are on TV down here). How about the typical chicago fan? I think black out rules are dumb as freakin' dirt.
  6. hmmm, very cub like play by the red's infield.
  7. Bruce, you need an avatar.
  8. what is a "schnide" and how does one get on a schnide in the first place?
  9. Mark, it's cool. He apologized.
  10. big dog, I never said anything about next year. As for outperforming the past, am I to assume you don't want Derek Lee back next year? Sometimes players play well. Give neifi a little credit for playing well. He could have hit .220 with baker running him out there 9 days a week :D
  11. Where were you in June and July? I hate that Neifi's fans are alternately insufferable smartasses or invisible ghosts, depending on whether he's hot or cold. excuse me? I didn't make that stat up. I'm not a neifi hater, nor a neifi supporter. Face it, the guy hasn't been that bad this year. We could have done a lot worse than neifi this year.
  12. nefi is hitting .347 this past month. . . . .wow.
  13. amazing how this stuff always goes back to dusty beinga complete dufus.
  14. derwood, you're right, but it's still not Neifi's fault (which I don't think you're laying any blame on him).
  15. I agree. Perez is not this team's problem. He's one of the pluses. Is he awesome? Heck no, but he's done his job. The problem with Neifi has been Baker. Neifi is an 8 hole hitter. Not a lead off guy. Not a 2 hitter. 8.8.8.8.8. Baker refused to see it. Neifi has a solid glove and puts the ball in play. He's pretty much done for the Cubs what he's done his entire career. .278 / 9 / 47 is way more than any of us would have expected when Nomar went down.
  16. omigosh. . . like, kerry will win the cy young in '06!!!!!
  17. yeah, tough call..... but CUBS games usually don't give me hangovers. :wink: saturday's game gave me a hangover Yeah... that one was really tough to lose. getting blitzed in the bleachers didn't help me ;)
  18. yeah, tough call..... but CUBS games usually don't give me hangovers. :wink: saturday's game gave me a hangover
  19. bhogg coming to you from wrigley ville. the men in b lue looked pathetic today -- save for maddux. Things will undoubtedly be better tomorrow. Its the summer of sandberg!!!!!!!!
  20. Well, one way or another I will enjoy this game. I'm sitting in the bleachers (thank you lloyd!). So either, I'll be filled to the gills with Old Style and the cubs will lose --- good times :D or I'll be filled to the gills with Old Style and the cubs will win --- even gooder times ;) Go Cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who wants a 3:45 wake up call from me??? I gotta get up extra early to make it to the airport on time.
  21. Alright, time to buckle down and win some games. Is the season over? Yeah, probably so. Does that mean we can't have a little fun? Heck no. So, let's get ready for Ryne Sandberg weekend and get it started with a big ol' fat W against the fighting fish. Since it's still a little while before the game, how about we post some fond memories of Ryno. . . . . I remember attending some games in 89 during his 5 consecutive games with a homer streak --- good times for the 1st place Cubs!
  22. this sounds alot like the Nolan Richardson BS at Arkansas. The Media starts riding him a little. . . fans call for his head. . . . . . coach gets all up tight and says things (in richardson's case) if they want my job they can pay me to leave. Ta da! Done and Done. Sometimes you get your wish.
  23. what's the score? my work firewall won't allow me to get into espn or mlb. . . but nsbb is no problem.
  24. a funny observation was the scoreboard :D
