Phuck the Cubs

I don't like Lou Malnatti's deep dish. If they didn't top it w/ tomato, it'd be perfect. His brother is also a teacher at New Trier

I really hope Pujols breaks Bonds' record

Good point. I bet the boo birds will get to a point however, where management will be forced to do something, maybe 10-15 years down the road when the tide turns and this becomes a Sox town.

That sucks for the Mets. Is he by any chance related to the Cubs Zambrano?

I prepared for my ACT by getting SAT QOD emailed to me everyday, and I worked on increasing my reading speed, by reading articles. I would read an article one day, time myself. Next day, read that same article, time myself. If you read things over and over, you get faster, b/c later, I would read articles of similar length and I was reading them faster, too.

That's not true. They boo all the time. At least that's what I've seen when watching the games on the idiot box

Well right now he goes 1. Pierre (CF) 2. Cedeno (SS) 3. Walker (1B) 4. Ramirez (3B) 5. Murton (LF) 6. Jones (RF) 7. Barrett © 8. Hairston (2B) 9. Pitcher If you put Ramirez in the 3 hole and Murton behind him, he might get some better pitches. And then if you put Walker in the 6 hole, Barrett, Jones and Hairston also get some better pitches to hit. While his injury definatly is a blow, IMO he still has the peices to contend, but he just doesn't use them right.

It's b/c Dusty is a moron. He prefers unproductive veterens over young players. He should construct his lineup like this: 1. Pierre (CF) 2. Cedeno (SS) 3. Ramirez (3B) 4. Murton (LF) 5. Barrett © 6. Walker (1B) 7. Hairston (2B) 8. Jones (RF) 9. Pitcher He has the players to do it w/o Lee, but he's stupid

I'd rather have him than Eddy Curry and Elton Brand

What about the 8 back-ups for position players that are voted by coaches and players? We've got a 32 man roster, 9 players voted by fans, 8 more by players and coaches. That's 15 players left.

Manny will heat up.

I like this skin.

IDK, b/c on the NL final-man ballot, it was all pitchers. It depends. And b/c of the stupid rule every team needs a rep, Ozzie will have to make lone-rep picks before he can stack it w/ his guys, which will likely be 1 or 2.

I agree. I think the AL OF should be Manny, Damon, and Vlad, Pujols at 1B for the NL, and Barrett at C for the NL.

Where's Adrian Beltre on that list?? He has a 5-year, 64M deal

Clippers win the series 4-1.

500th POST!!!

When all is said and done, Ozzie gets to pick 7 players I think, 4 pitchers and 3 position players, or the other way around, depending on the final man ballot.

Okay, it didn't sound clear from your post. He definatly will, since he'll play much more than Bonds.

Barring a freak injury of course. But I see no way he walks 232+ times and still goes yard 80 times. Maybe 150-180, but defintly not over 200.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ MLB used to have a vote for DH on the AL ballot even when the ASG was in an NL ballpark, which was quite stupid if you ask me, although I think the DH should be in the NL as well.

Thome is not on the AL Ballot, and if you want to write him in at 1B, then you can't vote for Konerko.
