2. Do you like Soriano as the lead off hitter, or would you rather have him in a different spot?

1.I think we definitely put a little more money that we should've into getting him... but I think he'll pay off for us in the end... we need a speedster on the bases.

2.He seems to be doing just well in front of Lee, Ramirez, DeRosa, and Jones.

How do you feel about my ASTROS taking the first 2 from the cubs??

**BangBrahs** · 04-10-2007, 07:19 PM

Are you or have you ever been a fan of Sammy Sosa?

I'm not very fond of it to tell you the truth... Pitching needs some work...

Not going to break .500 like that.

Yes I was a fan... my favorite player at one point, and still follow Sammy quite frequently...

I wish him the best and glad to see him back.

**Meshuggah** · 04-10-2007, 07:23 PM

They always seem to fall apart in the Bullpen and in the rotation... injuries and not even depth within the roster...

Very deep team... Big time play makers...

Little David Eckstein really impressed me.

Lemme ask you... why did the Cubs own the Cardinals again in the all time series last year?

To be honest i don't recall the Sox being good the past 10 years.

Don't recall the sox being good in the past 10 years ay? 2005 ring a bell?

How does it feel to know that your favorite team will never win a world championship?

Why is wrigley field not a landfill yet, or at least a new stadium?

Why did the cubs not keep Pierre and put soriano in left?

What would you do if you saw Bartman?

god i hate the cubs

So what you're saying is, they didn't win the World series in 2005? They didn't win 91 games last year? Get real buddy. Go lose more games.

I was talking before they were hot for those 2 years...

They weren't dominate like he was claiming them to be

**BPP** · 04-10-2007, 10:24 PM

hard to tell much so far..I expect at least a winning record though

**RIP Chuck** · 04-10-2007, 10:25 PM

why the f*ck do the cubs dissappoint me every year

?

**Negatron617** · 04-10-2007, 10:25 PM

prior and wood are a bust...i feel sorry for their lack of health
soriano wont solve any major offensive problems despite his ridiculous salary
and um im not a cubs fan so im out

**SFriday425** · 04-10-2007, 10:28 PM

I love Lou Piniella (huge Mariners fan) and I think he'll improve the club. I usually bet one of my best friends Mariners vs Cubs for overall best record (been getting pwned recently) so I usually root against them. But with Lou as their skipper, I'm torn...

**RIP Chuck** · 04-10-2007, 10:30 PM

goddamn it goddamn it goddamn it, I am so f*cking frustrated

they have played horribly last 3 games

**die2win** · 04-10-2007, 10:33 PM

prior and wood arn't needed to have a winning season.

And as for the season so far it has went decent. A lot of good---decent starts from the cubs pitures is a good sign.

Cubs2k7=teh winzoirs.

**G_Train** · 04-10-2007, 10:36 PM

Go Cubz.

They are my favourite basketball team.

Umm... Because when we beat the Sox in the World Series... it will be the single most pleasuring moment in your life.

Cubs are, have been and always will be my favorite team. Now why the first 8 games of the season have the disappointed me, their offense hasnt done sh*t. The only couple of players I have to say has been doing ok have been D. Lee and A. Ramirez. I really cant believe they spent $300,000,000 and have done so terrible so far. If they dont make the Playoffs I dont know what I'm gonna do. Ever since I was like 6 years old going to the games with my Brother they have disappointed me, but every year since then I go to the games, I watch the games, I record the games I cant watch and watch them before I check the scores, I have like 30 t-shirts, about 5 hoodies, 3 jackets, 8 hats, 7 pairs of shorts, and even like 4 pairs of boxers and I just bought some Reebok tennis shoes with the Cubs "C" on the side of them. Soriano has been disappointing so far aswell as Zambranos pitching and almost everyone else on offense. I get off work at 8am and wont get to sleep until 10 or so because I have bills to pay, but I will be up at 1pm to watch the game from beginning to end, and they better win. Losing the first 2 to the Astros after the Astros only scored like 16 runs in their first 6 games is very sh*tty.

Its early in the season, and they have not done terrible. Zombrano started slow last year and he ended up good. Its only 8 games into the season, give them a chance :P.

I'm gonna give them a chance, I'm gonna give them a chance every year for the next 60, or however long I live. And I will say this, if they do make the World Series, I will be there, probably every game, because although I hope its not gonna be their one and only, it might be, and I'm not gonna miss it. I had big hopes coming into this season, not that they still cant turn it around and win 90+ games, I just get frustrated when the start off this slow, I get very worried and pretty pissed off when I see what their doing wrong and when I see them lose. I hope your right and they do turn it around, I know its early, but they need to get above .500 and stay there, then I will be happy.

No game today due to snow. =(

**Fitnessgirl001** · 04-11-2007, 01:38 PM

I like Theriot and Hill. Cute!

Rooting for the Cubs is tough, but at least they got rid of Baker! Who do you think the second best starting pitcher is for the Cubs this year? It should be that Lilly guy, but I think Hill is going to be awesome!

Hill really impressed me in his outing... Im startin to love his delivery... straight overhead.

Him or Lilly should be the number 2 until Wood and Prior get back...

...if they ever get back.

both lilly and hill very impressive so far. The questions in their lineup are marquie and miller. I hope prior gets his 'shizit' together in the minors so they can have a better 5th starter. They are goign to get 3 or 4 real good starts a week with these pitures.
