Post subject: | Cub-Sox Commandments / Ground rules |
1. Thou shall not freak out after the first game. 2. Forget Harry. Hate the other team if you want 3. Forget Harry #2. Feel free to root for teams in your own division to beat the cross town team. Many more personal victories here than in the standings. 4. Forget Harry #3. Pick a team at birth and stick with it. You can't root for both. . . . . |

If you root for teams in the Sox division to beat the Cubs you are an idiot. |

Here was mine. I got a chuckle out of hearing Mac read it... If I have to listen to the phrase - "Well, if the Cubs were in the Sox's division" or vice versa all Summer, please tell me when Olin Kreutz will be at the FBI gun range because I'm going to need to have a physical altercation with someone. |

Good. At least you know it. Most idiots don't. |

Who cares? As if 'rooting' will affect the game, let people do what they want |

What? Please explain. I wore the same shirt for every Bear game in the playoffs and they went to the super bowl. Are you saying that doesn't affect the game? |

I don't care. It doesn't matter. But if you want the Sox to win the division why would you root for your oponents to win? Shouldn't your love for the Sox over ride hate for the Cubs. Of course. That's all I'm saying. Hey, we have meat balls here. I'm just trying to point out their stupidity. It won't work. Stupid people are stupid because they don't listen to common sense logic. If they did listen they wouldn't be stupid. |

From Beardown I: Quote: Stupid people are stupid because they don't listen to common sense logic. Or because they base their beliefs on false, self-created assumptions . . . and end up looking like the village idiot themselves because they have no idea what they're talking about. From Beardown II: Quote: If you root for teams in the Sox division to beat the Cubs you are an idiot.
Unless, of course, Beardown, you're a Reds fan, in which case you would always want the Twins, Royals, Indidans and Tigers to beat the Cubs. I've never said I was a Sox fan in this thread or any other. But don't worry yourself with facts. It's much more amusing to watch a complete fool call out others as idiots. |

I know you didn't say that. I was commenting on your premise and just using an example. Substitute any team and it would work obviously. Do what ever the hell you want. Stupid or not. I don't care. |

Why the hell did you take it off for the Superbowl then? You owe me one Superbowl championship, pal. |

funny email Dr. Ken, well done. does anyone else ever find themselves ripping on the "other" team, and then realizing your doing it..... i hate that. it happened to me today. i'm surrounded by Cubs fans within my workspace "area" and they were chirping about who the new owner will be....getting all excited. and i couldn't help myself to suggest, in jest, "who would want to own a loser corporation? 100 years of futility? no thank you....." i couldn't help it....i slipped.....i'll try to get better.... |

i really couldnt care less what the cubs do for the rest of my life. Chicago hadnt seen a world series title in almost 9 decades, and my team finally brought it home. thats good enough for me. the cubs can win 2 or 3 in a span of 5 years. but as far as im concerned, that will always been second fiddle to 2005. |

well... yeah, i agree with that premise frank. i could care less too. unless they make the world series. i'll likely feel something if that happens....like i did in 2003 when they CHOKED! oops, i did it again..... |

Every fuckin' goddamn one of you Sox fan cocksuckers need a prick stuck in ya' once in a while. So, if you cocksuckers would worry about your own team, we'd all be a lot better off. |

"who would want to own a loser corporation? 100 years of futility? no thank you....." That's the whole thing, you dont need to produce a winner and you can still make a ton of cash. The Sox are almost always better then the Cubs but have been the 2nd team in the 2nd city for a long time. |

That's right Mark Prior's contract negotiation is a racket and a rip-off. Get away from his arm before it BURIES YOU! It's the biggest no-brainer in the history of earth! |

it was great when i could get tix the day of a game. I know. I'm not a baseball fan so the 2nd Team wasn't meant as a cheap shot. I used to enjoy heading to the Cell after work on a weekend and getting a ticket, sitting pretty much anywhere in the park and fucking around, I went to one game last year and hated it, too many people. |
