RIP Cubs 2005
We hardly knew ye.



Also, Chi Sox beat those chokers 9-5 today. It's spring training, so none of the games matter. Except this one. And we kicked your ass.

For some reason all this cubs hate reminded me of a usenet post by a white sox fan right after the marlins beat the cubs in the 2003 ALCS. Enjoy!

Thank you, baseball gods for reminding everybody that these are still the
Cubs.

I am ecstatic, right now.

Fuck the Cubs, their stupid fans, their stupid stadium, and their stupid
uniforms, and that dead, sloppy, drunken traitor, Harry Caray .
I hate this team with every inch of my being, and vowed that if they made
the WS, I would never watch baseball again.
I couldn't give a rat's ass about the Marlins (though the whole Jack McKeon
story is rather amusing)... I would pull for *any* team in baseball over the
Cubs.

I grew up in Chicago, and grew to loathe this team. Their "fans" are not
real baseball fans.
They go to the park not to see a baseball game, but to be *seen.*
They don't go to a Cubs game, they *do* a Cubs game, sit in crappy little
park with a stupid fucking brick wall for an outfield, chat about anything
other than baseball, and drink warm Old Style out of a paper cup.

Not that my White Sox are any better, but I *expect* my team to be a bunch
of underachieving stiffs, year in and year out.
I know there will never be a "next year" for my team, so I have no
expectations to worry over.

I don't want to see a bunch of soccer moms and Mercantile Exchange day
traders playing hooky at my baseball games, I want to see drunken hooligans
charging umpires and opposing coaches, drunken hooligans falling out of the
upper deck, and drunken hooligans shouting "REGGIE SUCKS!!! REGGIE SUCKS!!!"
(Yankees vs White Sox - last game before the strike of 1981...Reggie struck
out)...and I want my scorboard to fucking explode when my team hits a home
run.

CUBS LOSE ...CUBS LOSE!!! ...all is right with the world, and I can sleep
well, now.

Dusty Baker has quickly ruined the arms of his best young pitchers. God, what a butcher. Cub fans should be outraged over how Baker rides his arms.

Baker made Prior throw 8 140+ pitch games in 2003, the most of any pitcher in the majors. And Prior was 23. Who does that to a young arm?

goddamit, Griese!
just reported on ESPNEWS...lemme find an article:


TUCSON, Ariz. -- Chicago White Sox left-hander Mark Buehrle is expected to miss at least one spring training start after tests Monday showed he injured his left foot while shagging fly balls last weekend.

White Sox trainer Herm Schneider described the injury as a "stress reaction" but not a fracture.

HOLLA

I think bonds can be called a lot of things, but worthless ain't one of 'em.


he's got the whole "woe is me" attitude. that makes him worthless in my book. he should take responsibility for whatever it is that he did if e did do something instead of thinking that everyone is after him.

`You wanted me to jump off a bridge, I finally did,'' Bonds said. ``You finally brought me and my family down. ... So now go pick a different person.''

Fucking cheater, you brought yourself down.

Well, that just makes him a irresponsible dick, not worthless, but thats just semantics.
 
Why can't the media find someone else to pick on other than Bonds? I doubt Aaron or Ruth's lives were interfered with on such a consisitent basis as with Bonds. What has the man done to warrant such negative attention? Like I've said countless times before, when he passes Ruth's mark, I hope he just simply walks the bases. As for breaking Aaron's record, I hope he enjoys the moment.

Please, don't even compare Bond's whining to the shit Aaron went through when he was chasing Ruth's record, and the unlike Bonds, Hank Aaron didn't bring any of the shit upon himself (unless it was his fault for being black). I hope Bonds really does quit, Aaron deserves to hold the HR record until someone LEGITIMATELY breaks it.
