great
it doesn’t change the fact that Custer is the biggest Heilman cheerleader on this board, to the point where he often claims he should be in the rotation.
except that the comment was
“objectively, even Al admits Heils has been much improved since Mid August.”
This statement is, in fact, true.

and MY statement is that Custer isn't objective when it comes to Heilman
and he isn’t.
If Heilman hadn’t put up those stats, Custer would STILL be calling for Heilman to be put in in all situation, and you know it, even if you won’t admit it.
it's got nothing
to do with the statement.

Bradley questions
Love that Dennis Miller is the only one saying, “Hey, what about Bradley?”
this is because
Dennis Miller is an idiot.

yeah, nothing to do with Bradley's
.184 average this month, the fact that he no longer takes pitches, or has a history of attitude problems.
I see you’ve expanded the “Alfonso Soriano can do no wrong” bandwagon to include Bradley now that Soriano has gone down
boy
and people wonder why I don’t come around here so often anymore.
Illicat = Dennis Miller.

Which, coincidentally, happens every time the visitors change pitchers in the middle of the inning.

Some dude robbed Meijer nearby here and there's choppers flying around...

Did you see this?
cst_cubs Bradley never ceases to amaze. Took himself out after routine 1B, no trainer, no nothing. Team says knee.
I thought they said on TV that he was called back from the dugout.

And he has been HBP two games in a row…

But other people say that he's not a jackass
I don’t know what to believe.
"He can't hit, he can't field, he can't run—all he can do is beat you."
I've never met him personally...
…but he’s had it in for Milton from Day One.

The official slogan of your 2009 Chicago Cubs:
Why?
Some wise poster said that you don't waste good pitching while you've got it.
Cause it won’t last forever.
