Why can't we just play one series each year and flip flop the location annually?
I would have loved to have made the trip to Fenway or Yankee stadium to see the Cubs. We miss them because of the damn WhiteSox .
The series between the two has lost a little something anyway. 6 games a year is way too much in

It sounds rediculous, but in essence it is what Cub fans are doing when they boo a guy that is giving 100% effort. If a guy is doing the absolute best that he can, and giving his all to attempt to suceed at the highest possible level, then booing him is the same as saying you should have been born faster, stronger, or with better reflexes. As far as I know the only one

Let me guess, after riping the hell out of Soriano up until this week and half of the Cubs faithful on here wanting him traded, you all love Alfonso and hope he stays a Cub forever.
Still think he should be batting leadoff? That seems like a lot of wasted HR's with nobody on base.
P.S. Would you slow

Alright, so earlier today I read a post talking about guys who had come to the Cubs late in their careers and revived their career. I believe some of the names were Rod Beck, Todd Hollandsworth, etc.....
I was looking for this post to tell a friend about. We like to pull old names out of the archives. For instance, I recentl

No doubt the most obnoxious, unknowledgeable group of trash. Good luck to you guys, I hope you finally win the series this year so we don't have hear they won the series 3 years ago. What have they done since then. Talk about living in the past. Show this city how to throw a party when you win it all.

I don't know if any of you guys have noticed this, but isn't it weird how many former players/coaches end out working in the Chicago Cubs' organization in some way (most notably in commentary), even if their tenure in Chicago as a player or coach was short-lived? My prime examples are: Bob Brenly (None), Dan Plesac

Well, behind Ryan Dempster's outstanding performance, the Cubs took 3 of 4 from San Diego, 3 of 3 from Arizona, and now they get three AT HOME against the Pirates, who the Cubs are a perfect 6-0 against this seaso

I was looking through the stats this morning and the biggest stat that I believe is translating into wins for us is the fact the we have 5 players with OB% higher than .401 (5 out of the top 15 players in the NL). That is impressive. This is so much different than previous teams we have had. We are getting guys on base and driving them in.

Dear Mr Soriano
I sincerely apologize to you for some of the comments I have made about you throughout the season. You have proven to me that you are indeed just a slow starter and that you can get it going later in the year. It turns out you may not be the worst Cub I have ever seen. With that being said, I still dislike the way you play the game. You are a horr
