"I think every day is important right now," Edmonds said. "I'm not going to worry about it. The worst thing they can do is send me back to my family, you know what I mean? Right now I'm really concentrating on helping the team, and obviously, I have to be a father at home.

"There are a lot of things more important than just the game. I have a whole list of things on my plate right now, so when I'm here, I'm doing my job and doing the best I can. And when I get home, I separate myself from it."

Are you concentrating on helping the team or are there things more important than the game? Can't be both.
the worst they can do is send him home? Is there no professional pride involved?
Edmonds, you came to the Cubs with an 0-2 count, but this was a called 3rd. Douchebag.

This douchebag needs to leave Chicago NOW before he totally fucks up the chemistry of the team.

I see him as one major obstacle to the post-season.

I don't understand all the fuss over Edmonds. If he is the least of your worries, the Cub are in excellent shape.

The Cubs would be in much better shape if they didn't have 1 of 25 taking a roster spot who was not producing.

Agreed, Bob Howry has sucked in the bullpen for the most part.

Your information is a couple weeks old.

Not a lot except maybe for being carbon based, but we're still not sure on Frank in that regard. :wink:

I think Edmonds is giving an honest effort.

When he's at the plate, he looks like he knows what he's doing. Good eye for pitches, decent at-bats...he just doesn't have the reflexes/bat speed/strength to produce hits anymore.

Are you saying this is an untrue statement Darkside? When did "concentrating on helping the team" and understanding there are more important things in life become mutually exclusive?

Douche him because he sucks...not because of weak crap like this.

In the midst of a baseball season, he needs to be concentrating on baseball. If he wants more family time I understand that. However, when you're hitting less than your weight, learning how to make contact with the ball should be your primary concern. He's made enough money that if he wants to be Daddy he should go do that, and leave the baseball to the guys who are 100% dedicated to the team.

They were all originally considered to be on Cheers before getting replaced by Ted Danson, Rhea Pearlman and Shelley Long.

Fair enough, but your response leads me to believe that you are more frustrated with his lack of performance than anything, which I agree is douche worthy.
