Firing Jim Hendry is a bad idea.
Jay Leno is not as unfunny as people give him discredit for. He's also not as funny as Conan.
1998 was the best year of my adult life. The home run race was a part (nowhere near all) of that. I wouldn't change a thing.
If the Cubs win the World Series this year by cheating, I will celebrate until I collapse in an unethical heap of exasperation.
If the Cubs win the World Series this year through methods of interrogative torture that cross lines even Jack Bauer wouldn't step over, I would have second thoughts.
I do not endorse cheating, torture, illegal steroid use, or the designated hitter.
Wrigley Field is unique and one of my favorite places in the world. So is the house I grew up in, but I'm glad my parents remodeled.
If Wrigley had a JumboTron that could replay controversial calls, they'd have to stop the game every other inning to rid the playing field of angrily discarded beer cups.
Everyone's at least a little racist.
Ryan Theriot isn't getting any better.
Put an @ before someone's user name to make sure they read your tweet. Use @@ to attack them with a giant 4-legged robot.
Going two-sies in the Wrigley troughs is a breach of etiquette.
The best Cubs-related movie of all time is Die Hard.
Dick Stockton will be the play-by-play guy for every Cubs 1st-round playoff game from now until the end of time.
I looked up the word curse in the dictionary, and I don't see a single definition that doesn't apply to the Cubs.
I love the Cubs, I hate the Cardinals, but to each his or her own.
Former players are entitled to their opinions about steroids, but I expect them to be no more objective than they were when they argued with umpires.
Parking at Wrigley has the exact same cost-to-pain ratio as getting a root canal.
Just once I'd like to catch a foul ball at Wrigley Field.
Alfonso Soriano will be great again.
Carlos Zambrano is the best Cubs pitcher, and he's worth every penny.
The Cubs will win it all in my lifetime.
I am not to be trusted.
Die Hard Reference lost me....
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid, and I mean when I first started cheering for the Cubs, I saw all this stuff about the Die Hard Fan Club of the Chicago Cubs. I just assumed that Die Hard was exclusive to the Cubs vernacular. Anytime anyone used the term "Die Hard," I assumed they were talking about the Cubs. I know it's not trademarked by the Cubs or anything, but it's a memory, so . . . when Die Hard came out, I immediately thought of it as a Cubs movie. And a Christmas movie.
