Let's talk about "CubsFest"

[The Big Squirt]

Is there any possible way that Hendry get taken to task by the sheep? Or are they still too busy grazing in the urinal?

[Palehose13]

I can't see them complaining. From what I see, they're content with Nomar.

Nah, they will complain about Sham-me. Even the most oblivous Cubs fans have seen through his b.s. Someone will complain about their lack of a quality closer. I doubt you'll anything like SoxFest 2004, though.

[FedEx227]

No, because Cub fans are morons

"How well do you think Henry Blanco will fit into our future plans?!"


and

"Thats great you got Barett for another 3 years....he had that awesome game, I think!"


"Beltran wouldn't have fit our plans ANYWAY!"

....Cub fans CANNOT be critical of themselves, so I expect another love fest kissing Nomar's ass, and talking about how taking the names of their jeresys make them even cooler then they were before.

[DumpJerry]

They'll whine about Scammy still being with them, but won't go nuts over the issue. They will be giddy about Nomar and convinced Maggs is behind the curtin signing the contract....................................

Bottom line: they won't be in the post season. When it comes to that team and its fans, that is all that matters for me.

[Ol' No. 2]

What do they have to complain about? They're going to the World Series this year.

[samram]

If they start complaining, whoever is taking the abuse will simply point at Ron Santo and say "Hey, there's Hall of Fame hopeful Ron Santo! Yay!" and all will be forgotten in the name of Cubbiedumb.

[SOXPHILE]

Cub fans have proven time & time again that that team could go 1-161, and they would still flock to the Cubs Convention in droves just so they can talk about how this is the year the curse will be broken. Yeah ! This is our year. And how even though they only won one game last year, at least Scammy hit a home run for everyone. HOORAAAAYY ! We're the greatest fans in the world ! Gee, I hope Ronny will be there so we can all sing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame. He's definatly going in the Hall this year. He's so deserving. Just ask him.

[FedEx227]

He's so deserving. Just ask him.

OOOOOOOOOOH NOOOOOOO!!!!! ::incoherant babbling::

[Jerome]

(smart cub fan)

"Jim Hendry, is it true that Octavio Dotel re-signed with the A's? And if so, who else are you targeting as closer?"

(Hendry)
"Well, uh, actually, uh, if you'll look in the next both we've got John McDounaugh the head of marketing, and he'll be discussing the rich history of the Cubs convention"

(masses)
"Make Kerry Wood a Closer! Make Kerry Wood a closer!"




ALRIGHT! TWO DOWNERS GROVE POSTS IN A ROW!

I really, really hope someone asks about Beltran!

[Viva Medias B's]

Actually, I bet they rip Hendry because they failed to reach the playoffs. Last year at this time, they were expecting to go 162-0 and sweep through the playoffs. Because that did not happen, I bet they roast Hendry over it.

Only reason theyve seen through his b.s. is bc the media turned against him.
