    1. Ask TJ who should be the top candidate. 2. Hire that person as AD. 3. Profit!

    The absolute worst teams in baseball still win 1 of every 3 games, and the absolute best teams in baseball still lose 1 of every 3 games. I'll take 2 of 3 on the road every time, no matter the opponent (unless it's the Deadbirds).

    Thielbar has been terrible all year. They caught lightning in a bottle with him last year, but now yeah, he's washed. Mop-up duty only, please. Probably the same with Pomeranz, but I'm willing to give him a bit of a look before getting there. He has July to look decent, or he's gone by Aug 1. I...

    I just want the Cubs to move on from Happ this winter. Thanks for the years, go get a check elsewhere. Same thing with Suzuki, Shota and Taillon. Ride it out with these guys for 26, we're not getting past the Brewers and/or Dodgers anyway.

    Ron Santo is up in heaven laughing his tail off. He never got over '69, he hated the Mets with all his being. Late in his broadcast career as his health worsened, he'd skip the NY trip entirely and stay home, he couldn't stomach even being near Mets fans. Awesome.

    Grading TJs Recruiting Strategy

    He couldn't get Glen Rice or Harrison Barnes, he sucks, Hot Seat!!!

    Jack Kohnen committed to Iowa State!!!

    You can just feel that it's only a matter of time before TJ gets a team to the Final Four. He is big time, and as a program, I think it's safe to say we've arrived. Feels pretty cool!

    Wicks was always a reach pick--hated it at the time, obviously hate it now.

    Alex Bregman, meet Jason Heyward. Jason, Alex. LOL. Cubs suuuure know how to pick their high $ free agents, no? (Dansby says hi, waving his own fistful of dollars).....Soriano and Zambrano would say hi, too, but they're too busy putting another coat of wax on their Lamborghinis......

    Wicks has had multiple opportunities in the bigs and totally choked on it each time, no more. Cubs need to cut the cord or at best, view him as AAA roster fodder. They do need people to fill out a AAA rotation I guess. Wicks has no MLB future.

    No on Suzuki, yes on Happ at the right price. No on all the other high price guys, yes on Kelly. I will eat half of Swanson's money if some team will take him at that price in exchange for a bucket of balls. Cubs can afford to throw away $12MM-ish a year on a bad contract, they already did it...

    Milan's Zoom Call

    JJ was only here two years compared to Milan's three, and began at a different school while Milan came here direct from HS. Yet JJ became a hardcore Cyclone, he is a very easy guy to root for. Hoping some NBA team is smart enough to spend a 1st round pick on him.

    At least it’s been a breakthrough year for Ben Brown, absolutely love what he’s doing. If he can just build up that stamina some, wow, looking awesome. Sucks that he never pitches deep into games. PCA, LOL…..dude is a lot of fun, that’s for sure!

    Not directed at any previous poster, but anyone that thinks this is a playoff team is delusional. This is a .500 ballclub if there ever was one. They were behind the 8-ball from the beginning with all three of their top SPs on the shelf, but the holes in the roster construction were always there...

    People that post Cards crap in a Cubs thread are like tavern Hoks that post in ISU threads. Just. Go. Away. Start your own threads.

    At this rate, he won't finish the season with the Cubs. I could see them dumping him at the deadline for whatever they can get if, as it increasingly looks like, they are out of the race in mid-July. I predict he goes back to Japan for 27.

    Favorite part of ISU campus

    Definitely central campus and the Campanile, just gorgeous. Particularly during summer school, back in the 80s there were so few people on campus then and in town both, I loved it. Tranquil.

    Milan Momcilovic commits to Kentucky

    When you look at things impartially, Campbell was pretty overrated in the end. A good HC. Not a great HC. He had 10 years to finally get this program over the hump and couldn't do it. I'll never get over having a team with three NFL starters including an MVP-level QB and he couldn't manage more...

    Milan Momcilovic commits to Kentucky

    Man, that's a lot of money. Being a hero at ISU would be cool, but if I'm Milan, I think I'm taking that bag as well, it's literally life-changing money. College sports and the NIL money is about to jump the shark I think, because this is unsustainable. So Milan's timing with this is ideal, he...
