  1. Much like those Cubs, the Phillies' bad contracts start to filter out pretty fast in the next year or two, so any GM who uses it as an excuse to hide behind tanking for years is not doing his job.
  2. Hmmm...I dunno...I mean, the Phillies are bad, but they still have a better record than the Cubs. Not sure if you're allowed to criticize their GM or not. Need a ruling. So long as you mention how bad the Cubs are too, you're good.
  3. Sega never had this, the best game of all time:
  4. Poll time: Did you ever beat Mike Tyson on Punch-Out without a Game Genie? a) No b) No. c) Quit looking for a different answer you liar
  5. I would think that being less wrong would be a better solution.
  6. They are all dcvalpo sock puppets.
  7. I do have very vague memories of having an Atari and playing Pitfall and a baseball game with three fielders who moved in unison.
  8. I guess I was a Nintendo kid, because I spent most of my video game years when it was NES, and anybody who had the Sega 8-bit system over an NES is the worst. I did have a Genesis over an SNES toward the end though.
  9. I'm pretty confident Alcantara can be a useful player next year.
  10. So we have to all stop using DIPS and go back to ERA+ now, right? Jackson debunked the whole thing?
  11. Baez back to SS. Promotion cancelled :(
  12. I remember looking back and finding some of my old posts on alt.sports.baseball.chicago-cubs from ~1998. I was awesome then, too.
  13. damn damn damn damn damn "Just needs some rest" is *never* just rest.
  14. not at all. it's just kind of funny to see people snickering at the gm of the best team in baseball while singing the praises of the cubs' front office that has presided over multiple years of garbage. i mean, you really don't see how that seems ridiculous? if we're going to use awful logic like this, then give me a ring count how is that awful logic? You didn't reference farm-system rankings
  15. http://i1236.photobucket.com/albums/ff450/AedonGawen/tumblr_lygtgjrjSN1r5ak3ao1_500.gif
  16. http://gifatron.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/theoden-you-have-no-power-here-288x100.gif Please. http://i.imgur.com/3zyMfGC.gif That is just the most awesome thing to be snobby about.
  17. I laughed and wondered if Kyle would be a part of that before I clicked the link... http://media.giphy.com/media/5ilsskakMwGT6/giphy.gif I wasn't until I clicked on the link.
  18. Overrating toolsy young SS's who can't hit It might be the most important tool of all.
  19. There's 30 organizations out there. Anyone who writes about the minors as a whole can spend at most 3% of the time on each one that we hardcore fans spend on our team. Of course most of us know the Cubs better than Parks, Callis, whomever do.
  20. lol, we're getting Iowa highlights right as they happen now.
  21. Javy just passed 400 PAs. (I just noticed that I have a long-standing aversion to referring to players or management by their first name, but Javy is an exception because he's just that awesome).
  22. I don't see Wood or Jackson as locks. I'd like to see two offseason acquisitions that are good enough to be rotation locks. Arrieta/New Guy/New Guy and then let Hendricks, Wood, Jackson and Straily fight for two spots. That's a bit thin, but I've seen worse rotations.
