Maddux to announce retirement

[cigar]

It just will not be the same for me though when he goes in wearing that Atlanta cap.

You can blame Larry Himes, not him for that.

I am not blaming him or anyone. I am just saying I am not going to be as emotional when he goes into the HOF as a Brave as I was with Ryno.

He also wouldn't have had nearly as many wins had he stayed with the Cubs. He deserved (and got) better than the shit house (thanks, Dingo) that was the mid '90s Cubs.

Of course it won't be the same, Maddux is a prick and Sandberg isn't. He also isn't a Cub, he started here and came back as an overpriced old man, but he's a Brave.

Are you yanking our chains? You really don't like him? Did you ever like him even when he was here both times?

No, I don't like him, not even slightly.
