Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.

I hate to be nasty but he should not be at ST

Spring Training should only be for players who MIGHT make the roster and a lot of kids needings some playing time who get a few weeks in the Sun. It’s fine to let guy like Scales play in Iowa where you do need a few career minor leaguers to fill up a roster and in some extreme circumstances they get a call up. Giving him time in ST is just Lou saying FU I get to let the guy have some fun cause he is a nice vet.

Hello Everybody

Hello everybody! I Needed to share this with someone. I just got interrupted at my desk which is full of tax returns. A client who picked up his taxes left me an autographed Fergie Jenkins bobblehead. Now Fergie will guide me through the rest of tax season.
There’s a smile on my face that may last until opening day.

And now, the inevitable....

Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.

Go Pack!
