Texsox Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) I just read the announcement and saw the banner I've been asking for a long time why we cannot have Cub fans here. Now that Boston won a world series, I want one for Chicago. If it means the Cubs, I'll cheer just as loud. Go Chicago!!

I hope the cub lose 120 games and that pitcher (is it Wood or Pryer?) loses 20, assuming he makes 20 starts. Put that picture on cubprattle not SoxTalk. :fthecubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wanted to broaden the site and reach out to Chicago baseball fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like we broke off the minor league stuff (not calling the Cubs minor league) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox1422 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 :banghead There are also reports from reliable sources (Mancow) that the Illini have to forfeit tomorrows game due to NCAA Violations including accepting free hats and t-shirts.

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Did you guys hit your head? Thats like inviting Nazi's to a jewish message board. You just don't do it. Not even as an april fools joke. You guys went to far this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I don't understand the point of all the hatred. The Cubs and Sox are both Chicago based teams. It only makes sense that we share a message board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyho7476 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I think we should also adopt Twins fans! We could turn the central division into one big happy family! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJester99 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Not only the Twins but invite the Cardinals as well... that way we all have someone to play with hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapkomet Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 We aren't inviting the Twins. Screw that. This is aimed at marketing the Chicago baseball fan base. There's a lot of big plans for the site. Come on in, the water's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreatScott82 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 the Cubs have pleanty of there own message boards. The White Sox and Cubs hate eachother and lets keep it that way. This message board should be for Sox fans and Sox fans only. I am not a big fan of this idea as I can't stand the Cubs at all. In fact this message board just might turn into a warzone with all the hatred toward one another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
