Calling Gene, Gene the Cubbie Loving Machine

[mnwild]

Twins aren't much better... Too much of an up and down team this year and I don't think they will repeat last years performance.. They sweep the Braves then get beat 2 out of 3 to the Brewers. I can't wait to see what happens in NY and Florida, gonna be interesting. Just my opinion on that.

Hey Geno,

Watching that brawl the other day, what was Zambrano thinking trying to take off his belt?? Was he going to use it as a whip on the other players?? I bet you that's what his thought process was.

[genegodawa]

MNWild,

didn't get to see any of the games because I was on my week's fishing trip to Cass....typical baseball brawl from what I heard though. It's still early...don't give up on the Twins yet. Now Windy, being 10 1/2 behind, CAN give up on his WSux though.

Windy,

blah blah blah....sheesh, turn the page already will ya?

Like I said, the Cubs have a better winning pct TODAY. I don't think you should open YOUR piehole until that changes.

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Wild,

I think Zam-Brain-NO was trying to get his switchblade out of his pocket and had to loosen his belt to do that, what an (Contact Us Please). He just keeps getting funnier and funnier to watch. It was funny but I was watching the game down in Florida with my father in law and I called the Branyon homer and I even called the field. I told him on the 3-2 count, here it goes, homer to left and it was GONE, another Cubbie loss.

Windy

[mnwild]

A Switchblade, funny...

Knowing him I wouldn't doubt it one bit, that guy is a crazy as they come.

[genegodawa]

That was a good one Windy.

At least Cubfans have someone they like and want to see do good, not like that Dick-for AJ nobody likes on the SSide.

PS Glad to see you are keeping that piehole closed today.

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Only 2 games apart, Geno....

Are ya sweatin yet old man?

LOL

Windy

[mnwild]

Funny you mentioned AJ. About 2 years ago I was at a Sox game against the Angels was sitting about 10 rows up behind home plate. The 1st time AJ came up bat as he walked to the plate I stood up and yelled "AJ YOU SUCK" (yes I was liquored up). You should of seeing the people turn around and say "you cant say that here" I looked at them and said I was from Minnesota and I had to put up with this clown for 6 years. All of a sudden everyone lightned up and said it was ok for me to say something like that. I wonder what they are yelling at him today. I thought I was going to get killed for saying that.. Just a little story I thought I would share.

[genegodawa]

Either you are very big MNWild, or you better learn to hold that liquour????

Just couldn't keep the piehole shut, huh Windy? Actually, I am very comfortable and starting to search for a nice avatar for you to display next mo.

No longer 2, is it?

[mnwild]

Average I will say.. Even the people I was with asked me if I was nuts saying that. Atleast the Sox fans around me had a good laugh when I told them where I was from.

[genegodawa]

So I see we won't have a chance for the Barrett/AJ rematch during the upcoming city series.....Zambrano musta got to mgmt so they shipped Barrett to the Pads - I do not like this trade!

We'll see.

[mnwild]

For an ex-Twin Rob Bowen, Minor league pitcher and cash considerations. Just read that on cubs.com. I thought Barrett was a good catcher??

[CNY Tim]

Gene - I do like the move... Barret was a Card killer

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Geno,

I likes the move as well as CNY, tee hee, I think we both knew that somebody had to go and it is easier to ship out a catcher rather than you entire starting pitching staff, LOL. Bad news for the Cubbies was that everybody knew that.

The big dance starts Friday. The show down at the Cell and all the inmates will be rocking, except "Rocky" Barrett and possibly D Lee (or should I call him "whiff" after that girly punch he threw) Let the games begin and may the best team get the avatar.

Windy

[genegodawa]

Windy,

Obviously it is easier to ship out the catcher instead of the whole pitching staff OR ELSE THE WSOX WOULD HAVE DONE IT BY NOW!

PS Sammy slams his 600th -- corked? I say not!

[bottomfeeder]

Not corked, but he was certainly juiced for about 300 of 'em.

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Tru Dat Bottom Feeder!

Amen my brotha from anotha motha. Slammy was juiced for about half his dingers and corked for another quarter, so Congrats Slammy on your 150th legitimate home run!

Windy

[genegodawa]

Somehow I knew that would get a response out of the Sammy-lovers.......

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

You are correct oh wise one, LOL

Windy

[genegodawa]

CUBS STINK! I can't remember when they have found more ways to lose like a bunch of LLeaguers (my apologies to LLeaguers everywhere!) so many times in one (half)yr.

OK, Windy, so me and you only got this weekend series to be excited about. Here's hoping for LOTS of offense.

And may the least-bad team win!

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Top of the dung heap, Geno! Here's to our city's continued futility. Come on, say it with me, Geno.......

WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!

Windy

[schweady]

Speaking of the Barrett/AJ rematch, I think we were all saddened, having been denied the chance to see something like this again:

geno - Could one of these possibly be windy's new avitar?

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Nice try Schweady,

But this pot does not need stirring by any outsiders. Me and Geno do just fine on our own, we are the Boyzz from Illinoizz! Should Geno win this month, and it is looking very good for him that he will, I am sure that Geno will find a much more suitable avitar. He would not want to waste his avitar on a tool like Barrett who is no longer with the team. Should he ignore my advice and choose one of these I would have no problem putting that up. It prominently shows my beloved Pale Hose logo as well as showing a current player while showing an ex-Cubbie tool like Barrett. In fact, I hope he does choose one of these, should he win. Can you tell, I plays a little Poker????

Windy

[genegodawa]

Oh no you don't Windy. I likes the help I'm getting from Schweady. How appropo, a Cubbie taking out a WSox, since the Cubbies have taken BOTH series from them this year.

PS They did it with a LLeague play today, huh?

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Alright Geno,

I am truly pi$$ed off at my boys. When I go to a restaurant and get a bad meal, I might try something else next time but if the food is bad, I DON'T RETURN. I am not one of those dopey Cub fans who go out no matter what kind of dump they trot out on the field and lately I am seeing a whole lot of crapola from my boys.

Send me your avitar and I am going to post it for the next MONTH, not just a week, that is how mad I am at them. I also will not be talking baseball for one month until I return from Cass Lake on August 5th. As Michael Corleone said about Fredo, THEY ARE DEAD TO ME! End of story.

I'm sure the Twinkie fans will have a hoot replying to this one but I don't care and they are not in any great shape either. I'm not swallowing any more of this garbage the Sox are dishing out. One stinking run yesterday and one today against a pitiful team like the Cubs, enough! Congrats for now, ole boy, you are on top of the dung heap. When they get better and show more effort I will return but for now, THEY ARE DEAD TO ME!

Windy

[schweady]

windy, it is downright IMPOSSIBLE to not get involved in this one, as much as the Cubbies are taking it to your frighteningly pale guys. I just enjoy the pics for how typically idiodic AJ looks, especially the deer-in-the-headlights in the first one. Reminds me of when he was still a Twinkie.. 2002 ALDS.. Oakland Coliseum.. We were having one of those "you have GOT to be kidding" horrendous innings, and AJ just stood there on top of the plate, watching the play while yet another of the A's rounded the bases. And here a runner comes home and gives him a shove off the dish. Best part was the look the guy gave AJ, like "What the #@!! is wrong with YOU?"

Please don't give up, windy. Have the boys work on the suicide squeeze defense tomorrow during BP. Maybe your guys can still finish ahead the Royals.
