Fans like you are part of the problem. You have to give them some tough love and refuse to watch until they make the personnel changes YOU demand.

lol ouch. They did a lot of changes I wanted. Theo has replenished the farm to look semi-decent for the first time in as long as I can remember. There are renovations in Wrigley. They got rid of Z, Rami, and got a head coach that says all the right things.. at least right now.

and my favorite thing they did?

Stayed out of the Fielder, Pujols profanity.

But they apparently also want to trade Garza, which sucks ass.

Theo has outright said, he has to be blown away by any deal to trade Garza.

If Garza stays, awesome. If he goes, the package of players will have to be so good, that the Cubs will be sitting pretty still with that they get in return.

it's a fun trip I take every year to Mesa. I've met several players, managers, and sports broadcasters over the years.

I had a very long convo with Ron Santo once. Was a blast.

It's hard to get those experiences in the middle of the season.

Nope. Never have. Why would I blame a guy who did what any fan would do? It's not like Alou was guaranteed to catch that. He wasn't a gold glover, he was mediocre out there at best.

It was a collective team effort f***ing up that game. Gonzalez botching the routine ground ball, Prior losing complete control of the game.

The way the Cubs fans, media and chicago as a whole treated Bartman was disgusting. And I said that the day of the game, it's not like I just recently got over it.

You should just run into a brick wall 50 times instead. The pain and disappointment will be over much quicker.

It is pretty boring on TV, (play off baseball is different though) but I can't get enough of it live.

It's incredible where Arizona is right now, considering where they were in 2010.
