Calling Gene, Gene the Cubbie Loving Machine


Recommended Posts

Before I can answer your tongue-in-cheek "short lived" comment, I will have to research the schedule for this month BUT 5 games is alot for the WSox to make up on the 2ND PLACE Cubbies.

That's kind of fuzzy but hey it's your dime your dancefloor. Let's wait until it's official on July 31st. Remember,I will be up at Cass until Aug 5th so you may have to wait until then to see your lovely fuzzy red and blue logo. But hey, my beloved could mount a huge come back combined with the Cubbies going into a slide and then....

Monkeys could fly out of our butts!!! LOL

Enjoy it now Geno,

Your Cubbies are like butter....On A Roll!

But beware the Ides of August (or is that March)

I have only four words of warning Geno.........

One

Nine

Six

Nine

We all know what that spells....1969! LOL

Did you leave any mushroom swiss burgers at the Hole or did you guys scarf them all???

Plenty of M/Swiss left for you....got there later than I wanted to since the Kitchi pike action was hot that morning. I had a heckuva time docking at PHole and all the guys got a great laugh watching me - almost took out a guy's lower unit but I got her docked safely. Then after lunch we had the scariest boat ride in my 30 yrs to Cass when leaving the Turtle River back for BVilla. Out to O'Neils shoulda been 5 mins but took me 20. I was never so scared on Cass and I been out there in lots of big rollers before, but that day was the worst ever for me.

Be careful and stay safe.

And catch lots of fishees.

Oh yeah, and say hi to Brian and Commanche when you see them.

PS I would have really enjoyed last night after my Cubbies came from behind but your PaleHose couldn't quite give back all of their big (9 run?) lead...lucky you got Jenks.

But they tried they only fell one run short of giving it back! You got to love our bullpen! Buckvich, Dey and somebody named Boone, all those famous names that every other team is trying to steal from my beloved Pale Hose. I am sure they are putting the finishing touches on Mr. Buckvich's plaque for Cooperstown right now!!!! ARGGHHHHHHH

We've still got Cotts in the minors to give back if you want him.

Oh yeah, and that "early in the season" comment I made about Ohman.......I take it back now.

I just gotta love it when Mike North is talking about how he would love to have Ronny Cedeno playing SS for your Sox instead of that "fat guy who dodged the murder charge". Cedeno can't even sit on our bench as he too is in our minors now.

My first chance to gloat in awhile, so I know you'll let me enjoy it while it lasts.

And how about us getting Kendall?

not a cubs fan at all, but the Kendall move is a good one, especially when you look at what the cubs gave up to get him. Solid catcher and hitter and good in the clubhouse. I still think the cubs need another OF to make it really interesting coming down the stretch. Brew Crew losing Sheets for ?? helps alot. How much can Cubs gain with Sheets out?? That's the difference to me.

But we still will have the Cards breathing down our neck when Edmonds and Carpenter return.

If the monster of subs(Floyd, DeRosa, Pie, Jones, etal) that we have playing outfield can hold up, then we won't need another OF.

Long ways to go still. Every journey begins with that first step - just one at a time (beat Barry tonight I hope).

OK Geno,

Here are my prime trade baits, who will you give me for them?

Juan (the Con) Uribe

Ryan Buckvich

Dewon Day

Bobby Jenks

Scotty Pods

Jermaine Dye

Joe Crede

Bryan Anderson

Make it some good stuff man, remember, many of these fine athletes have an 05 World Series ring on their finger.

Prime?

Dye might command something on the market, but I almost have never heard of most of them bums before. (I'm actually surprised you didn't offer the entire starting lineup).

Lucky you asked "who" or I would have replied with a bag of bp balls and a couple of old bases. Nyuk, nyuk.

PS Here's a good one for you:

A guy that was gonna be on Cass at the same time as our big internet group offered to bring up WSox tix for a couple of series if anyone was interested......the only reply he got was from a local guide who said "bring them up, I need something to start my bonfire with" Hoooooeee!

Coupla more days before Windy returns from his trip to Cass and then he'll be showing us a nice Cubbie avatar AGAIN.

I sure hope the Cubbies are still in 1stPl when Windy returns - and also at the end of the season.

That's ok Windy because after 3 straight months of losing our bet and displaying that avatar, it turns you into a Cubbie-Blue-Kool-Aid sippin' CubFan. You'll like it though 'cause it's better than being a WSox fan. Nyuk, nyuk

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
