  1. gammons seems like a good guy. i hope he gets through this.
  2. they should make you get a permit to be the GM/manager/starting CF of the cubs, let alone peddle cheesey cubs trinkets on clark street.
  3. walker is one of the few players i actually like on this team. in the context of this season, it means i don't change the channel when he comes to bat, unlike when tony womack, juan pierre, neifi perez, john mabry, or freddy bynum step to the plate. todd rocks
  4. another interesting stat: todd walker has more runs created than todd helton.
  5. how can pujols' BABIP be so low... only .229? is there any particular reason for someone having such a ridonkulous year to have such a low BABIP? what kind of year would he be having if his BABIP was 30 or 40 points higher? yikes.
  6. "i'd like to give a shout out to all the dudes and dudesses at NSBB. all the people there might remember me as a certain someone named ZZ Thorn. bet you wish you didn't ban me now, female dogs. also, tony womack will be playing LF. suck it. peace out."
  7. SEE! that's what i've been saying all along. oh wait sarcasm nm
  8. this weekend i saw something different too. i saw a cubs team with fire, heart, timely hitt... oh, damn. i forgot they would've been swept if the sox would have turned a double play.
  9. ozzie guillen for cubs manager
  10. whatever. it doesn't change the fact that the white sox are the champs, and they play like the champs. the cubs... i don't even know what they play like, but it's embarrassing. i'm at the point where i'm about ready to root against the cubs in the hopes that something will change.
  11. i'm clearly an optimist
  12. barrett punches the biggest bleep-hole in all of baseball and then the sox hit a grand slam. pierzysnki definitely had it coming (he probably didn't deserve it there, though), but i would just like to say that the cubs are a pitiful, joke of a team. murton could punch out ozzie guillen, and it wouldn't change the cubs from being a pathetic bunch of losers who are 1/8th the team the white sox are. every time they show that highlight of barrett punching AJ, remember that the white sox will be a serious threat for the world series in october, and the cubs will be done in july, if not earlier. sorry. this team is just sickening.
  13. no, but i bet darren baker sucks at baseball with his father as a teacher
  14. i don't know how people defend this team. they SUCK. they're god-[expletive]-AWFUL. the range of emotions i go through watching a game these days varies from blinding anger to laughing at what a joke the cubs have become. that being said, i love this team more than anybody, and it pisses me off to see them play like a bunch of 13 year old girls on a daily basis. despite my love for the cubs, i can still admit that they are awful. i don't know how any rational person can actually defend, or even worse, make exscuses for this team. blegh
  15. maybe the cubs are playing pathetic because that's the way the were constructed, and they have a pathetic manager and a pathetic baseball philosophy and often make pathetic decisions. i'd love for the cubs to win 20 out of 25 or something, but this team simply cannot do that. they're not good enough. i haven't totally given up hope, but only because it's may. june is an entirely different story. all i know is that my buddies and i were going to go to wrigley on thursday and sit in the bleachers. not happening any more. i'm a poor college kid, and i'm not spending 40 bucks to watch this team get shut out by some AAAA pitcher. they're terrible, and i am losing interest very quickly.
  16. .806 OPS?! let the all-star voting begin!
  17. anybody with Insider feel like sharing what grade Mel Kiper gave the Bears for the draft?
  18. i don't know if you guys are familiar with the drink called the "red headed slut", but it's an oz. of peach schnapps, an oz. of Jager, and cranberry juice. definitely a fitting drink for murton.
  19. i just want to profess my love for murton while at the same time pointing out his constant use of the phrase "no doubt about it" during his interviews. matt did interviews with both ESPN and Comcast earlier in the season and used the phrase anywhere from 500-600 times in roughly 3 minutes. tonight when the Comcast guy talked to him, my roommate and i literally cheered when he said it, and then said it again. someone with photoshop skills greater than mine should make that into a banner or something. "No doubt about it -- the orange guy rocks!"
  20. i'm not defending barrett because he's a cub, i'm defending barrett because he's not even close to the worst catcher i've ever seen. is he good? no. is he bad? eh. i'd say barrett is a below average to bad catcher, but his offense more than makes up for it. today he sucked, and his ineptitude behind the plate assuredly contributed to the loss. however, our gap-toothed friend jerome did too. so did jock jones, who didn't contribute at all. the whole cubs lineup was very impatient today, and made bronson arroyo look like roy halladay. just keep this game in mind when barrett saves us with his bat. i guarantee you he will help us win more games with his bat than he will help us lose games with his glove.
  21. let the overreactions begin!
