  1. You are familiar with the old adage about acorns and blind squirrels, no? :wink: You just can't handle the fact that I obviously have better foresight and knowledge of this team than you do. :P
  2. See, you all should listen to me more often.
  3. With their 12th selection and 116th overall, the midway monsters select QB Jake Plummer of the Denver Broncos.
  4. Can you please change the title of this thread? I think my heart skipped a beat when I saw it.
  5. Oh come on, everybody loves some good old fashioned groupthinking. That was what this site was built on, wasn't it.
  6. I think that means he has a drinking problem. Although, it could just be me.
  7. Now that's just ridiculous. Walker is more than capable of hitting leadoff. And he's more than capable of reaching home with less than 3 hits after him. That's just absurd talk that completely belittles the rest of your message. I'm not impressed with Furcal because he's not very good. He's fine, but he's no $8 million difference maker. He's a career .346 OBP player, and that's acceptable, but hardly impressive. He's also got a drinking problem, that, unlike Kyle Farnsworth, has actually gotten him in serious legal trouble. If Furcal is your primary offensive improvement in the offseason, you will still be severaly lacking on offense. The OF must be addressed. The Cubs have options at SS, but they don't have anything for the OF. Speaking of ridiculous. I would love to hear your explantion on why Furcal is "not very good". I'm also wondering how you know Furcal has a drinking problem. And isn't the point of a leadoff man to not only get on base, but also get himself into scoring position? Correct me if I am wrong but I believe that he was arrested for DUI.
  8. I guess that depends on your definition of pretty decent.
  9. Any further word on Marmol? This would be a nice time for Ron to make an appearance on nsbb. :)
  10. Let's not kid ourselves, Kerry is a far more talented pitcher than Kevin.
  11. What if we tank and get a top 10 pick in the draft next year?
  12. I don't want Tavarez. I had more than enough of him the first time he was with the Cubs.
  13. Where was Marmol hit? Any word on his condition?
  14. With their 11th selection and 103th overall, the midway monsters select the RB Willie Parker of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
  15. Just glad it isn't Harvey. :) I've seen Sean pitch but haven't seen Ryan play yet because I was at a game when he was on the DL earlier in the year. Still wish I would have seen Eric play...
  16. 1) You think you can get Manny Ramirez for that package? (if that is the Manny that you are talking about) 2) No Neifi plz. Manny's been waived a few times right?? no...
  17. I'm going to be going to the Sunday game with my friend.
  18. With their 10th selection and 96th overall, the midway monsters select the Buffalo Bills defense.
  19. Dude, Holmes is definately a first round pick. If he is healthy he has a chance at being second in points among RBs to LT and maybe even higher, especially if it is in a TD heavy league.
  20. That happened to me one time in little league. I tried to get out of the way of the pitch but reacted late (probably due to the fact that I needed glasses by that point) and couldn't move in time. The ump thought that I wasn't trying to avoid the pitch and told me to stay at the plate. That pissed me off so much...
  21. They didn't have numbers until the '30s. They were the last team to have them.
