Brilliant, I say. I mean, it's not like he's from the Midwest and knows what the beginning of April is like weather-wise or anything.

Mazel tov, Bud!!!

AJ, I got a bet for you.

During the season when the Cubs have a better record that the Astros you have to have a Sig of this boards choice.

But

During the season when the Astros have a better record than the Cubs I(and anyone else who is willing to join in) will have a sig of your choice.


Anyone else willing to join in with me to sweeten the deal?

I don't understand the reasoning with the scheduling. Why not have the first week in warm weather/dome stadiums? Sure the second week of April can be cold too but March 31?
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Lucky bastard, #1TKFan. Let's see, my Cubs record- Cubs beat mariners, cubs crushed by padres, cubs lose to reds, cubs beat astros, cubs lose to dodgers. Although, I do get good seats every time cheap.

You think they would have learned last season from the Cleveland debacle, although those Angels-Indians games were a helluva lot of fun in Milwaukee.

At least it will be warm.
