The Cubs
 

May be time for Lou Pinella to get the ax? Some of these BB teams keep losing over and over again every year. Pedro Martinez, with his best years behind him made it a laugher last nite. Feel bad for you Chicago guys. Too many teams makes for watered down players I guess. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: The Cubs
 

Yeah they suck right now. No team chemistry. You sign a knuckle head to play right and a strike out king to play left. Your best pitcher is a hot head who cannot control himself. I hate the sox's but atleast they have it somewhat together. Hey now Sam lets talk about your Pirates. Trade every good player away. They are just a farm system for our cubs.

Re: The Cubs
 

NOT my Pirates Rob. I am amazed how easy the Phillies are making it seem. Like one other member here said, Pitts. is a football/hockey town.

Lou needs a beer poured over his head.

Go Cards!!! sorry, but i just had to do it. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: The Cubs
 

I'd be depressed if I was a Cubs fan. No major league team should ever get swept at home. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Re: The Cubs
 

Well Sam when it gets to the point like now, I just do not waste my time watching them anymore. As every Cubs fan know's. "Maybe next year" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...thumbsdown.gif Plus it is almost football season. Go Bears https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif


P.S Hey Sam I see you guy's got Vick--better hide the dog's

Try being a Lions fan. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif They are now entering their 52nd year of their 3 year rebuilding plan. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Vic will get booed right out of Philly. He will never get a chance to try a cheesesteak especially in South Philly. He will be running for cover! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Seems to fit.

Re: The Cubs
 

My definition of insanity: Do the same thing but expect a different result. This applies to the Cubs for the last 100 years. BTW, deep down I still would like to see them win but I know that it will never happen unless drastic changes are made.

Re: The Cubs
 

The Cubs are losing, and we Chicago fans are supposed to be surprised? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Chicago isn't watered down. We won the World Series a few years ago, we were in the Super Bowl a few years ago, the Bulls make to the playoffs quite often, the Blackhawks are doing well. Hey, we're not Boston, but we're doing better than most other cities. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

The Cubs aren't losers, they're just in a 100 year slump. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

Re: The Cubs
 

Fans continually trek to Wrigley Field & pay top dollar,year after year after year after year after year to fill the stands and watch them lose.

Why should the Cubs organization even consider hiring a winning team?

[/ QUOTE ] Exactly right! As long as this keeps happening things will stay the same. Remember Wrigley Field is just a giant bar. Most of the people are not even watching the game anyhow, they're too busy texting and talking on their cell phones or getting drunk. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Exactly what I've been saying for many years. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
