Cubs tickets

Cubs tickets go on sale today Friday the 20th of February, 2009. This is the time of year that Cubs fans have been waiting for. These are single game tickets. This got me thinking. You know, if we are all on the brink of the next great depression then why are people spending money on cubs tickets? First of all the cubs suck and they always have sucked. Second of all, baseball sucks worse now than it ever did in the history of the game. These ball players are all spoiled rotten asshole brats! They even go on strike from time to time because ten or twenty or thirty million just isn’t enough money to satisfy their giant egos. I remember back in the very early 90 when jose conseco started charging his fans moneyh for autographs! I turned my back on the game then, and I’ve never come back around to it. And I wont. But for all you chumps that delight yourself with watching grown men play a kids game and pat each other on the ass, go for it.

chicago cubs Cubs Spring Training Thoughts So Far

chicago cubs So Cubs Spring Training is underway as all players besides Kosuke Fukudome have arrived in Mesa and are taking part in full day workouts. One thing from Lou Piniella is that he might move Alfonso Soriano down in the lineup. I would agree with this but only if Piniella and Soriano stick to it and he isn’t moving back to the lead off spot three weeks into the season. Soriano is open to it as of right now so I’d expect him to play a few games while hitting down in the order.

Piniella also said that Carlos Marmol and Kevin Gregg would both get the chance to close games while in Spring Training. Both pitchers will also throw earlier in the game at times as well so they will both be getting quite a bit of action as the team decides who to use in the closers role. Gregg will get quite a bit of work while Marmol is pitching in the World Baseball Classic as well.

Things will start picking up down in Arizona and here at ChicagoCubsBlog.net once the team starts playing in some games and we have roster moves to blog about. For now, we are six days away from the first game and we don’t expect any big moves or drama before then.
