I can't have a meaningful conversation with a Cub fan (Linda) who dismises the White Sox World Series victory so easily. There's no need for me to ask what the Cubs have done for the last century. That would be petty.

For a cheap team (White Stocking), maybe.

You meant winning organization, right Linda?



No, cheap, boring, 2nd rate..... certainly not winning. I recall one World Series in the last God knows how many years. You call that winning?


Haven't checked the banners lately for the Cubs - when was the last WS title? National League pennant? Heck, winning season (I know it's 2004)

Tell me what makes the Cubs a top notch organization. I never realized overpaying for mediocre to ok ballplayers made an organization top notch.

linda. 2007 Payrolls:

White Sox, $109,680,167

Cubs, $99,937,000



go hang out at the hardware store.



That's sad considering how bad the White Stocking roster is this season.

J. Thome, J. Crede, M. Buehrle, J. Dye, T. Iguchi, J. Contreras.... just to name a few will not be on the roster next season simply because the team is cheap.

O. Guillen won't be there because he's a God damn loon and he'll quit. He'll be in Atlanta taking over for B. Cox shortly.

If you guys don't agree (about M. Prior and K. Wood) thats fine but you don't have to get so upset about it.

F. Constanza maybe you should get away from your computer for once. Do something with your life instead of using school as an excuse of why you're camped out in front of your computer EVERY SINGLE DAY.

I'm not upset. I need a little debate every day and I don't feel like joining in the Imus/Sharpton discussion.

cram it.


and, as far as the sox not being a "winning organization", since 1990, the only 2 AL teams that have a higher winning % than the sox are the yankees and red sox.

This is coming from a White Stocking fan...

That fact and a buck fifty will get you a cup of coffee ;-)

Is anyone else reporting this, or just Bruce ?

If it's just Bruce, it could be true, but I'm skeptical.

Yeah - it wasn't breaking news. His source was the Trib. They had it online before he reported it.

Shouldn't it be breaking news only if he ever actually pitches?

Linda S: What's the rush of getting rid of these guys? Why not keep K. Wood and M. Prior and let them continue to try and get healthy? Just to make the fans feel better?

Linda, was that a serious question?

one, i dont see bobby cox going anywhere.

two, contreres signed a 3 year extension last year. thome and creded are under sox control through 08. the sox want to sign iguchi long term and they're working out a deal with him.

dye or buerhle will be gone, but not all of those guys. twat.

to steal a joke from mac here linda, how many titles have the cubs won since moving into thier new ballpark?

Frank, Never argue with an idiot. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

My guess is that nothing will be wrong with him, but they will shut him down like they have 10 other times for a few weeks, and then try again like they did previously.

I'm trying a new one almost everyday. Most have liked the pink taco, I like the Ditka Flugtag.
