I mean, Gammons picked them to go to the world series, right? It's easy to say now, but I didn't ever really think they would be able to replace Sosa's and Alou's bats in the middle of their lineup or Clement's quality innings. Oh well, I don't mind watching the Cubs suffer!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I don't mind watching the Cubs suffer!! Its not confusing to me that Flubbs fans thought they were going all the way. They are delusional people who don't pay any attention to facts they just spout off "We're the greatest!!!". That's fine with me though cause their despair at their current situation is really funny to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I don't mind watching the Cubs suffer!! I can see why, they still had a hell of a starting rotation (when healthy). Biggest mistake the Cubs made was not addressing the hole that clocked them the past year (ie the bullpen). There offense was plenty good anyway so I didn't think the loss of Sosa/Alou would have much of an effect. Of course St. Louis is vastly superior anyway and I think Florida/Atlanta are going to be the division winner/wild card teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackie hayes Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Good to see Lamont mentioned for a manager spot. I had no clue what had happened to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
