burnt out cubbie fan

They cannot extend a QO to a player that has only been with the team for a partial season. Oh right thanks

Surprised there is no QO for Chapman too.

can we start by changing your terrible avatar No

I have been living in a Cubs bubble. It burst tonight. I have been all out of sorts. I have been trying to sum up my words and my feeling of loss but it keeps ending up as incoherent junk. I know I should still be enjoying the championship but I just want to watch this team play more playoff baseball. I makes me sad that I have to wait until April to watch next year's squad play a meaningful game.

I just heard Len say that Fred passed at the end of the Cubs game and my heart sank. He was such a pleasant and friendly guy when we met up with a couple others for a game about 10 years ago. I feel for his family, losing someone that quickly is such a shock.

I hear he is going to have an amazing year and then spend the rest of his career battling injuries.

LOL. I'm obviously not saying his girlfriend is at fault... Oh, cool! Oh. That's the post you are choosing to be offended by out of all of those?

I wonder how thickly pockets got lined.

If it's vests it means Lester was/did something really [expletive] good so that's fine. Not necessarily

When taxes are involved.

=D> to the last two posts

I really could do witout the "comparisons" that are almost entirely due to race. "He was once a Juco shortstop (and he's got dark skin)" so obviously he is the next Reggie Sanders.

That's quite a sentence.

And I'd be rich if I wasn't working retail. but that's the whole point of what i was saying But the fact remains that I work retail and Almora has been pretty mediocre this year which decreases his trade value. It isn't April anymore.
