It is easy to say you called it when you predict bad on everything Cub related.

I guess but I was very specific and even compared to how they also clamored for Soriano and made his life hell for years complaining afterward.

MANY Cub fans said he was hugely overpaid, Mike, including yours truly. There aren't MANY who didn't know what Heyward was when he signed.

I predict that if Lester pitches bad in the last 2 months of the season Cub fans will bitch about him and some may want him to die.

Heyward has been bad so far but let us see what he does in August- October. Judge then and qualify his season.

It's become a board meme.

With 100% certainty, in 5 years a certain segment will chirp how they were right when they said Lester will suck when he's 37.

Great, so did everyone else with pulse.


What would be enlightening is to see all the notches on the "I was wrong" column. It's pree-tty pree-tty long for a certain segment.

I thought they paid him to be good for an entire season?
