April 1, 200521 yr 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!! Edited April 1, 200521 yr by Texsox

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

April 1, 200521 yr QUOTE(FlaCWS @ Apr 1, 2005 -> 12:47 PM) Interesting that the banner should appear on April 1... :-) Actually we just upgraded the server, etc. with this kind of thing in mind. We wanted to broaden the site and reach out to Chicago baseball fans.

We wanted to broaden the site and reach out to Chicago baseball fans. What I think would work even better is to create a forum just for Cubs fans. Kind of like we broke off the minor league stuff (not calling the Cubs minor league)
April 1, 200521 yr QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Apr 1, 2005 -> 07:57 AM) I'm embracing the change....I no longer hate the cubs...I love them just as equally as the Sox!
April 1, 200521 yr :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.
April 1, 200521 yr 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.
April 1, 200521 yr 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.
April 1, 200521 yr I think we should also adopt Twins fans! We could turn the central division into one big happy family!
April 1, 200521 yr Not only the Twins but invite the Cardinals as well... that way we all have someone to play with hehe
April 1, 200521 yr 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.
April 1, 200521 yr 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.
April 1, 200521 yr We can let them in as guests, but they have to wipe their feet before they come in.
April 1, 200521 yr I for one have long been a backer of making the site bigger and better, and this will definitely give us a leg up on the competition.
April 1, 200521 yr QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Apr 2, 2005 -> 12:22 AM) I totally forgot it's April Fool's Day. So I fell for it. Just in time for the season I say.
