YASNY Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 ..... I'd swear this headline was from the Tribune rather than the Sun-Times. Maddux still impressive despite getting shelled Sometimes, you just have to laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Rector Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 ..... I'd swear this headline was from the Tribune rather than the Sun-Times. Maddux still impressive despite getting shelled Sometimes, you just have to laugh. You left out the best part, the 1st paragraph in the Mike Kiley article: http://www.suntimes.com/output/cubs/cst-spt-kiley18.html SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Even after allowing six runs (five earned) and eight hits in four innings Wednesday, Greg Maddux was impressive. Asked about the Texas Rangers' four stolen bases against him in as many attempts, including three in one inning, the Cubs pitcher accepted all the blame and showed what a dependable teammate he will be. Unintentional humor never gets any better than this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll definitely be happy so long as he is a dependable teammate that loses a bunch of games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 I was thinking the exact same thing this morning when I read that. The funny thing is...they never do go on to say what was impressive. Usually if something is written like that you expect to hear what the "impressive" part was.... I guess they were just impressed with him getting shelled... ohh I see now after re-reading I realize they are impressed with the fact the he took the blame for it. It takes a real trooper for that...huh.... Anything for a positive article....what a f***in joke. How about an article how Prior is a big question mark...and clement has a dead arm...madduz doesn't seem himself. There's a lot of s*** out there to write about, but the pick the all impressive Maddux with 8 hits and 6 runs in 4 innings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 well only giving up 6 runs in 3 innings is impressive for the cubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Is this kind of like the image someone created with the headline in huge bold caps saying something like "SOSA HITS TWO HOMERS" and then in small print as a title of a little article down on the bottom "Sox beat Cubs in World Series 4 games to 1" ?
