	The Cubs were in position to win a World Series last year. In better position than they had ever been, but the whole team froze in the playoffs and if we forget DeRosa was the one who showed the slimmest bit of life in his post-season performance. This isn't a good trade unless we go for Peavy. -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney

	If the Cubs' recent joke of a choke upset you, this won't. Fergie Jenkins and Greg Maddux are both getting #31 retired in recognition of their storied careers and I couldn't be happier. Both are essentials of Cub lure and were class act players. -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney

	That's awesome. Greg Maddux is one of my all time favorite Cubs. -----signature----- #1 on iTunes Most Played: The Killers "Human" #1 on iTunes Most Played Scores: Fellowship of the Ring "Bilbo's Ring" ---------- They will not force us.

	Yeah he is probably my all time favorite ball player. Fergie getting this recognition is long over due. I am getting tickets for the game -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney

	Someone needs to tell ESPN that the play they keep comparing to Bartman wasn't exactly all that similar. The outfielder didn't have a real chance to catch it, so what's wrong with a fan getting it in that situation? Sure, he was sitting in the same area, but that's really about it. Oh, and non-black cats aren't generally considered unlucky anyways -----signature----- The Arena's Favorite Baseball Player Tournament - Come vote! http://boards.theforce.net/the_arena/b10777/29864047/p1/ I approve of NYCitygurl's sig

	I am sick of hearing about Bartman myself. To his credit the guy has not tried to profit off what happend to him. I remember hearing that he was offered severeal deals for promotional work for various Chicago institutions and I believe they invited him to Cubsfest or another sports convention to sign autographs. Moises Alou himself admits that he wouldn't have been able to catch that ball had Bartman not interferred. If I place blame on anyone it's Mark Prior but doing that is like beating a dead horse which I choose not to do. We lost, it happened. Looking back has only created problems. I will be at the Maddux and Jenkins ceremony and game tomorrow and as of late the Cubs look like they may snap out of their problems. By no means is it time to panic but this was a very disapointing start to the season and Milton Bradley will soon explode in a over the top fashion. I hate that he was signed particularly with Kosuke Fukudome stepping up as the player we know he can be. Bradley simply isn't a fit in Chicago. -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney

	I hope Bradley makes a quick departure from the Cubs. I had hoped to catch a game at Wrigley when I visit the midwest in a few days, but it looks like that won't happen. I might convince my friend Scott who works for an airlines to use one of his passes some weekend this summer so we can fly for free to Chicago and catch a game. -----signature----- #1 on iTunes Most Played: The Killers "Human" #1 on iTunes Most Played Scores: Fellowship of the Ring "Bilbo's Ring" ---------- They will not force us.

	I still love going to Wrigley even if the Cubs are in a bad rut. The experience is truly amazing. Cubs fans define what Wrigley is. -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney

	Actually I think they are a very dangerous team still. Of course since I'm a Brewers fan I aways believe that. Lots of season to go and I won't be overlooking them. -----signature----- Tuggle, Knuckles, and Vinny oh my. "All things truly wicked start from innocence".

	Yeah they have no excuse for that 8 game losing streak. Early enough in the season not to press the panic button but they desperatly need a decent trade -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney

	Your far too cynical to be a good Cubs fan Yeah I don't think they will make the playoffs or contend at this point but I think the team still has a good enough core to at least post a respectable winning record. Remember in 2007, they were in roughly the same position they were in now at this point of the year. Still I don't think a dramatic turn around is in the cards. I'm putting my money on St.Louis getting the division. -----signature----- "That's all there is to life, just a little laugh... a little tear"- Lon Chaney
