They have had enough and thrown in the towel. Thinking what tropical island they will be on in the offseason. What type of high performance Italian sports car they will be driving next. Anything than lets play this game, lets play to win.
Fuck 'em, fuck 'em all in the ear.
Blow this fucking team up. Go in with a broom. Get rid of the cobwebs. Play guys that want to be there, that will play the game hard. But in doing so, have a plan. Not wait till next year as I think next season is a write off with the current contracts. Have a game plan of 2-3 years time. Trade guys like Zambrano, Lily, Fukudome, Theriot and Nady. See if Lee will go elsewhere with his limited no trade. Trade for A or AA prospect guys that have a view of playing in 2-3 years time. Build around Castro, Cashner, Colvin. Look to guys like Vitters, Jackson and Lee contributing for the future.
This team sucks donkey dick. I would prefer to watch Iowa play than this crap.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I agree. I'm done with this team...and this team is making me close to being done with the Cubs. I really don't enjoy watching them. When I saw the incident with Z all I could do was laugh. It's like a god damn reality show now, and I don't want to pay to see the Real World starring multi-millionaires. Z can hop on the next plane to Venezuela for all I care.

Same here. I have not watched a game in over 2 weeks now. Swear to god. I listened to the game yesterday while I mowed the yard but switched over to music by the 5th inning. I have never cared less for a Cubs team in all of my life. They are in real danger of becoming about the 4th team in line as far as Chicago sports teams go IMO. The Bears, Hawks, and Bulls (if they get LeBron) are all going to be above them until they start winning. It is sad and frustrating but true.

This.
And I went through the same thing in the late 90s. The Cubs were about 3rd on my list at the time, and are just a sideshow for me at the moment. I am so fucking sick of all the drama and nothing else that they've provided for 2+ seasons, and even more if you go back to 2003. Cubs fans get laughed at because of the perception that baseball is never #1 to them, it's all the cute WGN and Wrigley bullshit, and I can see why people ridicule us. It is the case from the top down. Until this organization makes winning ballgames year-in-and-year-out a priority again, I'm not going to give a shit. Blow this shit up.
