Neighbors are reporting strange events at the home of MB21. Apparently he was sighted drinking the blood of a chicken he’d just killed, while plucking the feathers and stuffing them into the brim of his Cubs cap, with the feathers hanging over his ears. “He was doing some kind of unusual dance, sort of like the Electric Slide, but with some mash up of Pin-Ball Wizard and I think ‘Go Cubs Go’ and every so often he’d interrupt it by trying to do a handstand, which he’s really terrible at,” his neighbor, Bill, said. Officials from the local mental facility were notified, but when they arrived and saw the Cubs sticker on his bumper, they turned around without making contact, so as not to interrupt the juju.
Paul Sullivan is a miserable pice of subhuman filth:
He hasn’t experienced the pain most Cubs fans have endured, including double-digit losing streaks, a ball through Leon Durham’s legs or off Steve Bartman’s hand, or the Milton Bradley experiment, just to name a few.
Fuck you, Paul. Fuck. You. You sawed-off little prick.
@ Rice Cube:
Does it even matter? How the fuck is a FA-signing gone bad in any way, shape, or form related to those other two incidents? Sullivan is a fucking asswipe.
So, to review: Roy Halladay, Yu Darvish, and Jered Weaver have all been pulled early from their last starts due to injuries. It’s been a bad couple days for top-of-the-rotation starters.
Hey folks, over in the OV Forum Josh posted a quandary of his about ESPN.com contacting him about the Hope Monster. Give it a read and if you have some advice, let him know. Especially since we are his only friends.
@ josh:
I have to say that I really like the tenor of the discussion here. Whether I know anyone’s real name or not. Hope you don’t mind that I put the shout out in the main thread.
It would never happen, but maybe the Cubs could consult Bonds on how to have a laser dissection eye of the strike zone and how to be consistently good at baseball.
@ Rice Cube:
I think I actually did see this a month or so ago (or at least an excerpt thereof) but thanks to BN for reminding me of its existence anyway.

Unfortunate choice to use “breaking” there.

CBS says it’s his lower back. As I recall, he’s had tenderness there before.

It doesn’t matter, but I’m just wondering how he even managed to segue it in there.

I’m actually more bothered by the whole blaming the 2003 playoff failure on Steve Bartman thing.

That, too. But Sullivan’s continued preoccupation with Bradley is a disgrace.
Mercurial OutfielderQuote Reply
From what he said the other day, sounds like Dempster would be reasonably open to a trade.

Yeah, I know, I’m pathetic.
I do have some friends, just none that know how to Internet.

MLBTR has a blurb suggesting they may work out a new contract but that might just be due diligence and vague buzz from the front office.
