    I think maybe I'm going to start watching the Twins. Seriously. I'd give my left kidney for Hendry to choke on any one of the dozen donuts he'll cram down his piehole tomorrow morning.

    Is it just me or has the Cubs success against the Cards to this point (or more accurately, the Cards' penchant for sucking against the Cubs) made this season even more frustrating?
  3. IowaCubsFan
    The Cardinals look completely clueless out there. In other words, I love it.
  4. IowaCubsFan
    Geez, Cedeno could get knocked down by a stiff wind. Slide already!
  5. IowaCubsFan
    That's about the only thing I can take solace in at this point; the image of Sox fans looking in horror as the Twins are within striking distance of the Wild Card lead.
  6. IowaCubsFan
    Because he really doesn't care about winning games at this point? Seriously, wouldn't you rather see Glendon out there instead of someone we might keep next season?
  7. IowaCubsFan
    Ahhh...that's much better. For a couple of days I got used to them winning. Thank goodness that's over! Suckiness is good. Thanks Glendon.

    Did you notice that Dusty failed to acknowledge Joe Morgan's comment about the team not walking? Dusty's response was, "Well we need to hit some home runs too." Yes. I also heard Dusty say he loves his bullpen. Then I immediately thought Novoa and Dumpster . Walks? Damn base cloggers. Who needs em!
  9. IowaCubsFan
    C'mon. This team is easily Major League 3 bad.
  10. IowaCubsFan
    So YOU'RE the reason! I knew it! :lol:

    And of course, because the players are a bunch of lifeless morons, who care more about having their egos massaged than actually winning, they'll buy into it and defend that loser.

    Anyone who doesn't throw trash on the field after watching this debacle should be embarrassed. Baseball should force the Tribune to sell this team to an owner that actually gives a crap about winning.

    In horse racing, when a horse is this lame they at least walk him into the trailer and put him out of his misery.

    LMAO!! Ronnie said it all just now: "Boy oh boy." I've never seen a bigger bunch of losers than these guys. They should all be ashamed of themselves. If they had any pride, they'd all quit tomorrow.

    1. What's a reasonable price? 2. What are the chances he'd sign for that? Given the very slight difference in OBP and huge difference in pay-Cedeno is a better fit for the team. We could use the money not spent for Furcal to fill the holes in the team. SS isn't anywhere near our biggest problem. You're creating a false choice here. Cedeno was already expected to be a part of the team, even if Furcal had been signed. And would you seriously argue that the money not spent on Furcal has been spent "to fill the holes in the team?" I'm sick of this talk of overpaying. Wouldn't you rather see the Cubs spending $110 million this year instead of $96 million and have a leadoff hitter with an OBP some 40 points higher than Pierre's (at one point it was close to 80 points higher this season), and still have Derrek Lee in the lineup? The Tribune could easily spend as much money as the Yankees; they just choose not to. The better investment would have been to go hard after an even better leadoff hitter like Johnny Damon, whose OBP is in the .350 range. But since this is the Trib, who tries to get their free agents on blue light special, that's a pipe dream.
  16. IowaCubsFan
    The better comparison is between Furcal and Juan Pierre, not Cedeno.
  17. IowaCubsFan
    Not working for a week can do that to a person.
  18. IowaCubsFan
    I hear Troy O'Leary is available as well.
  19. IowaCubsFan
    Cubs trying to set another record today for most homers given up in a game.
  20. IowaCubsFan
    Dude, baseball's all about being aggressive at the plate!
  21. IowaCubsFan
    Extensions for everybody!
  22. IowaCubsFan
    Yeah; at least he was throwing strikes. :lol:
  23. IowaCubsFan
    If pitching with a towel was a game, Prior would be World Series MVP every year.
  24. IowaCubsFan
    Four homeruns. Hilarity may now ensue. :lol:
  25. IowaCubsFan
    I'm no math major, but with that HBP I think Pierre doubled his OBP for the season.
