RibbieRubarb Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 (edited) During the pre-game tonight, Dusty explained that teams, like the Blue Jays, who don't play the Cubs much at all have an advantage... They can watch the Cubs on TV. "We're on WGN, Fox, Comcast all the time...They can watch us and prepare" "We'd have to get a sports package, or something, to see other teams..." Oh Dusty.... :headshake Edited June 7, 2005 by RibbieRubarb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpy2121 Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Wow, thats f***ing pathetic...people that make over a mil a year cant afford mlb extra innings. And besides that, shouldnt the Cubs have all the gametape they could ever possibly want on anybody? f*** you Dusty, go cry me a f***ing river.

Kalapse Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 If this is true then the Cubs have the worst advanced scouting in Baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...you know the Tribune company...if they don't have to pay to get MLB Extra Innings in the locker rooms at Wrigley...they won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpy2121 Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 But guys lets not forget....All of the Blue Jays fans are such avid Cubs watchers just because they play 3 games against them once every 3 years. We all know that all of their players don't have anything better to do so they sit at home and watch the Cubs games no matter what! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Obviously Reed Johnson watched Koronka(or whatever the f*** his name is) pitch in San Diego cause he just hit a 3 run bomb 4-0 Blue Jays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Dusty.... :headshake LMFAO! - MLB Extra Innings? Too expensive for that little Tribune Co. - MLBTV? Far too complex for Dusty I'm sure. - Tapes? Well if you can't figure out or afford a satellite dish, maybe a VCR is too tough too? - Dozens and dozens of scouts? Apparently inept, they do work for the Cubs. - Doing your job as manager? Nah, whining's easier. - "Or something?" That sounds like a plan to me, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RibbieRubarb Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 (edited) Here is Dusty's exact quote in the Suntimes: ''They'll feel that because they can't use a big bat at DH, but we're at a disadvantage because we're on television every day. We're on when most teams are getting to the ballpark. They see us all the time. We rarely get to see American League games, so we're both at some disadvantage.'' He did go on to say during the pregame that they need to get a sports package to watch AL games... :headshake Edited June 7, 2005 by RibbieRubarb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 This is the weakest excuse for losing of all time. If teams are watching the Cubs in the afternoon preparing for them, then couldn't the Cubs watch their opponents at night when their game is over?

ChWRoCk2 Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 so what he is saying he wants no audience to watch his team play on TV which would mean less attention and more attention towards the southside, sounds good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
