    who the heck are they? I don't know, but they've got a lot of spunk. I hate them.

    Z is so awesome.

    Wait a sec, did I just see a good throw (relatively speaking) from Pierre that kept the runner from tagging up from first?

    (sarcasm ahead) That can't possibly be the case. This is just an attempt by Hendry and Baker to let him be the fall guy for this piss-poor team. The thought of Speier needing rehab can't be the reason why he won't be the third base coach for awhile. The only reason has to be that he shamed the team and must be punished. I don't know why people can't figure out that he probably will have to go to rehab just as most other companies would require of their employees. This isn't a witch hunt, folks. We'll beleive it isn't as soon as the OTHER coaches are fired too. Would you mind telling me where you got the information that Speier was fired? I don't know what part of "personal time off" some people on here can't seem to understand.

    http://cubs.scout.com/2/548124.html My guess is that Speier is headed for rehab.

    I'm more troubled by the 14% who voted 'Let's see the '07 roster first'. Still trying to figure out the logic behind that response.

    How many World Series have the Astros won? (rhetorical question)

    Barrett batting second....what's gotten into Dusty? Of course, we are still left with Perez, 2b. Can't be playing Theriot, he just got here.

    I submitted this to urbandictionary.com (see here). Maybe this phrase can achieve wider circulation.

    We have a team that is dead last (or close to it) in ever major offensive statistical category, and Phil Rogers wants to trade our Silver Slugger catcher. Brilliant! On the other hand, it's not as crazy as it sounds. Sell high and get some good prospects in return. Imagine if they could get a haul like Minnesota did for AJ Pierzynski. If I had any confidence whatsoever in Jim Hendry's ability to judge talent, I wouldn't totally dismiss the idea.

    Awesome. But dare I say you fumbled a bit in your verb usage, Carlos Zambrano simply "is". Not to be a grammar nerd, but she actually said it right the first time. "Things" is the subject, so "are" is correct. True. But Carlos Zambrano is a singular entity, hence he "is". My quibble is that Carlos is being lumped into things (plural) that are cool, when clearly he transcends belonging to a mere group. Z stands alone. I stand by my original interpretation.

    By the way, there are lots of ways to capture youtube videos and save them to your computer. I recommend vdownloader as an easy way to save youtube vids locally (makes it easy to save them into AVI or MPEG files).

    Carlos makes me proud to be a Cub fan. Well done. You might want to upload this on some lesser known video upload sights to avoid the ever-watchful eye of MLB.

    Random major league general manager: Hello? Jim Hendry: Hey, random major league genreal manager, how's it hanging? RMLGM: Alright, I guess. JH: Jimbo here, I see you need some pitching, wanna talk trade? RMLGM: OK JH: I see your team could use a left-handed pitcher... RMLGM: Indeed we could. JH: Well, I got just the player you need... RMLGM: Well, don't keep me in suspense, spit it out! JH: GLEN-DON-RUSCH! RMLGM: ... JH: You know, Glendon Rusch. RMLGM: .... JH: We'll even throw in some money...and maybe a minor leaguer or two. RMLGM: ... JH: Hello? You there? RMLGM: ... JH: Going once...going twice... RMLGM: Ah, I get it. This is one of those prank TV shows. I'm being punk'd, right. Where's the hidden camera? I didn't even know Dick Clark was still alive! I confess, you had me going for a minute. JH: Well...uh...I was kind of being serious. RMLGM: ... JH: What would you give up for Will Ohman? RMLGM: ...dialtone...

    Don't worry, you'll probably get your wish. He'll be traded this week in an act of desperation (probably to the Giants) and the Cubs will get bupkis in return - something like a 25 year old single A reliever and a player to be named later who'll end up being another toolsy outfielder with speed.

    Just when you think this team couldn't find any more ways to suck in this game, they strike out in order in the bottom of the ninth. The ultimate cherry on top of a sundae of suck.
  18. ToupeeOnFire
    Another new low. This has got to be like the 17th new low of the year. I'm willing to bet we lead the league in 'new lows'. PS: In case you haven’t heard, the ESPYs are next!
  19. ToupeeOnFire
    Way to hold the line Glendon. http://www.cybertronical.com/allsites/starwars/main/aliens/jabba_the_hutt/jabba.jpg
  20. ToupeeOnFire
    You missed some of the most entertaining Cub ineptitude of the year.
  21. ToupeeOnFire
    Glendon in for one of his patented game-out-of-reach scoreless relief appearances.
  22. ToupeeOnFire
    Walker deserves an ESPY or something for his play tonight.
  23. ToupeeOnFire
    Let the comeback commence!
  24. ToupeeOnFire
    C'mon. This team is easily Major League 3 bad. Oh come on, nothing is that bad! It's kind of like how Rocky fans refuse to acknowledge Rocky V. I refuse to acknowledge the 3rd Major League movie. The Cubs are Battlefield Earth bad. They play like a bunch of man-animals.

    Time for an inspirational speech from Dusty. "Come on guys, my job is at stake. You don't want to see me fired and replaced by a manager that demands accountability. Do it for me, do it for yourselves. 8 runs to tie, 9 to win. You can do it!"
