"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
Jon Miller handled the Bradley news on ESPN
thankfully we’ve been spared the keen insight of Joe Morgan on this matter.
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
Milton Bradley sucks.
But not as much as Joe Morgan.

That’s not relevant to the Cubs adding a player because of what side of the plate he hits from.

I’m not sure not having enough LH bats was the entire reason, but it certainly was a factor.

I spoke to my brother Peter in NY today, he told me to say hi.

OT: I listened to the Bears game today but would love to see it...
…is the video available anywhere? Will WGN replay it?

I agree.
I hope he can come back, I stood up for Cardsfansince62 because I know he’s trying to add to the conversation here.
I’m like Shanghai Badger, I also think it’s interesting to get other fans’ perspectives in this blog.

I agree but some can't help
acting like 6 year olds. It’s just childish.

Cardsfansince62 is a good dude
Some Cards fans I have little use for, but a lot of them are good, knowledgable fans and not at all self-congratulatory. He/she fits that bill.

Have fun, VCF
Heard a lot of good things about that ballpark.
I’m going to the game Tuesday in Milwaukee. Seemed like a good idea back in April. It’s still baseball, though, and it’ll still be fun.

Thanks, NBF.
I’ve been to Miller Park before … where are your seats?

WTF is Going on here
Why is Heilman in the game again……
Is there any Chicago Teasm worth cheering for in the winter?
Blackhawks, Bulls and Bears Suck. Who is left to root for between baseball seasons.
Hey, can I tell you all something? I LOVE Derek Lee. I mean it. He’s a terrific baseball player, and an even more terrific human being. I know it’s been a rough season for the Cubs, but you all should take pride in the fact that Derek Lee is a Cub.
She isn't crazy, she's just not impressed.
Oh, and could you get Mike Adams for the bullpen, please?
