I have no doubts that you're just another lame fairweather Sox fan. I grew up seeing that empty ass stadium and landfill-esque outfield.

The Sun Times says there is a possibility Jones will be traded by Monday!!! But that probably means no Griffy deal. :(

Did I post a picture of me in the 2rd grade of me in a Cubs jersey, and agian in 2005 with a sox cap?

I've always like the Sox since I found out what baseball was.

I always got sox tickets from the guy that my dad bought windows off, and yeah it was hardly ever a sell out, but how gives a ****?

If your worried about being a fan of the more popular team, your about as bad as a fairweather fan.

And if I was fairweather, why am I still standing up for the sox?

And Like I said before I'm also a Yankee fan, now if I was a fair weatherfan why ain't I at there board blowing a-rod?

You know what happens when you assume.

Ozzie is the goat.

Lets not debate who's fan of who. I think this is our first actual argument on the Cubs board with a someone not a Cubs fan. :rofl:

Lets just talk MVP Jacque Jones trade talk here.

blahblahblah.

I care about Sox fans about as much as I care about the Sox.

Sox will always play second fiddle to the Cubs. Nobody in the city cares that the Sox won the World Series, but it'll be like the second coming of Jesus Christ when the Cubs win it.

ps. you're "defending" your team because the Sox board is about as dead as their fairweather-ass fanbase.

Give 'em a week, a 5 game winning streak and a little bit of time to forget that the Cubbies just swept 'em :wink:; then you'll see more Sox fans.

Hey what about Sammy Sosa...

Old guy past his prime... check
Once an all star but barely half of what he was... check
Could be injured at any time... check
Puts people in the seats without any concern of winning... check
Recently doing well but no promises in the near future... check
Once a Cub but would be welcomed back... oh wrong guy

Anyways theres enough here to tell me Sammy Sosa might be our guy.

And we don't usually intend to attack the sox. In fact, we never really get much opportunities in these Crosstown Showdowns because the cubs usually lose.

Lets not attack people's loyalties as fans on these boards. Get back to peace, Cubs vs. Rockies tomorrow.

I missed this entire series. I didn't see one pitch live unfortunately. I heard a little of game one on the radio though.

You missed a great series. Held Sox to 2 runs in 3 games. I would just love to see our offense be more productive and less relying on Soriano's lead off solo HR's.

Deal For Jones Could Be Close For Cubs
http://www.realgmbaseball.com/src_wiret ... _for_cubs/
Indications are the Cubs will step up their efforts to make another trade of a position player before Monday, when they plan to add a 12th pitcher to the staff.

That likely would mean moving Jacque Jones, who has gone from the Cubs' Opening Day starter in right field to essentially the Cubs' fifth outfielder. According to baseball sources, the Padres, Rangers and even the White Sox have shown recent interest in Jones, who has been shopped again by the Cubs in recent weeks.

Cubs GM Jim Hendry didn't rule out a trade as a way of making room for the imminent addition of a pitcher when the Cubs return to National League play Monday at home against Colorado.

Jones just hurts this team. It's simple mathematics. Jones is a negative player to our team. If you get rid of a player, it is also a negative. As we all know, two negatives equal a positive.

Agreed. I can't wait til they get rid of him. Remember when he called Cubs fans racists? What a joke that dude is.

I don't think Cubs will be in the market to get a guy like Griffey with so much money due to him over the next two seasons, because our team is still for sale and we are far out of a playoff spot.

Huge weekend is upcoming, hopefully Cubs arms are awesome this week and we go into the weekend vs. Milwaukee red-hot. In a week from tonight, we might be in a MUCH MUCH MUCH different position... for good or for bad.
