Due to change in off periods at work, the only time I hear this show are the 5 to 10 minute drive from one school to practice at another. Has anyone asked him why for the Bulls it was "Only Championships Matter" but for the Cubs it is ok because they are a year early?

he really hasn't said that about the Cubs.

well, then that's the wrong thought for this moment. It's a good thought in a few months though.

of all people Rod, you would understand the concept of house money. You would also be one of those with proper expectations for the Cubs that they then over exceeded.

Admission by omission. He's never compared the two directly but says all you can do in the baseball post season is get to the playoffs and see what happens. Which I suppose is true because unlike basketball the best team does not always win the World Series.

Nationals, still a year or two early or?

if you told me Matt Williams was running the Cubs for the next three years, I'd be a bit more concerned.

CoF, when they're at fattys this Friday you should ask Dan if this was a failed season for the Cubs? If it was not a failure ask why it wasn't. Ask for SPECIFICS.

Cubs have smarter people running the team.

Yes that was his answer to the same question.

I will, but he will say it's ultimately been a failure.

This is a shanda! You must give more at temple if you want God's blessings. Forget the games of the goyim. There will be no enlightenment with this baseball. Only bupkes!

I look forward to talking to Dan Friday. Gonna try and go on lunch break before the place fills up.

Cuz Goofy Joe Maddon has a track record of getting young, hyper-talented teams over the hump of winning a championship....

They exceeded the expectations at the start of the season. But going into the play-offs they looked like they might be the best team.

Danny B be trollin', trollin', trollin'

Dusty Baker's frames are moldy

How can we know what something looks like if it's defined as something that hasn't happened yet? They're only a year ahead of schedule if next year they win it.



Not sure what he means here. HE is the unabashed humper of the Theo baseball machine. Why wouldn't he say it?

Just another case where I pretty much get what he's saying and agree but he's such a peen about it.

actually they played their best baseball in the second half. But their pitching was such smoke and mirrors...their bullpen such a mess...an over reliance on power hitting from young players. It didn't add up for this season. It could have worked out like the 06 Cards, but even if they draw the Dodger and win, who's their Baumgardner against KC?

but he's not...he really believes! Which is why a Cubs failure for the next couple years really will send him into retirement, or radio exile. He's buying in, and there's no "Plan B", Joe Girardi.

I'm just wondering whether there will be any "if Ryne Sandberg were manager, we would have won" calls after this series.
