So what gives? - rok - 01-25-2010

Why aren't we wheeling and dealing? It's about 1 month before pitchers and catchers report, and we still have 2-3 holes to fill. What in god's name is Hendry doing?

Are we simply waiting for free agents and other teams to get desperate? This is a dangerous game to play. Anyway, I'm just bored out of my skull right now sports-wise. This place and Cubdom in general is in a stupor. I need some action and I demand some answers.

Thoughts?

It would serve you right if his mother was dead.

That's the chance you take when you fire off a your mom joke. Greatness is rarely achieved without taking a risk.

If she is dead, depending on how the body was disposed and time elapsed since disposal, she might have more holes to fill.

Hey, it's a slow day.

This is the thanks I get for trying to stir up some discussion.

There is a special place reserved in hell for each and every one of you, and your mothers too.

Who is having a worse offseason, the Cubs or Bears?

Rok's mom.

Does Hendry have a twitter to follow? On a slow day like today, I'd like to follow his calorie intake.

No one's doing anything though, it's not just the Cubs. Everyone's waiting until the last second to sign guys to the cheapest deals possible. I expect people will be filling out their rosters up until the first pitch is thrown on Opening Day.

I don't think Rok's mom has an offseason.

Remember that time Dirk shot off that dig at my mother when she was in the hospital?


I had to PM him eight times to keep him from taking the gas pipe...

If this thread turns into a Yo Mama thread I will be very happier than a puppy with two peters.
