People who call him a pussy forget how quickly he came back from injuries in 2003 and 2004. The guy was abused and simply never recovered. I don't care what his attitude is/was like. When healthy, they guy is a first class talent. If he turns his career around, well then good for him.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->


i had a hard time putting him in my top 5 favorite cubs even when he was dominating...he just didn't seem like a cub. i don't think he ever wanted to be here.

and he's a bit smug and arragant.

but as you said, he was fucking dominant in 03...until

All I know is that there was no other player for a period of 2.5 years that I wanted out there wearing that uniform and on the mound as badly as Prior. I liked the fact that he wasn't the typical Cub who was just happy to be here, coddling fans and <b>reporters</b>, blah blah blah. Anyway, I'll stop now because this will turn into another 20 page discussion on this guy and I don't want that, believe me.

I know this person's opinion is the LAST that should matter, but Sullivan says Prior was the biggest jerk he's been around with the Cubs.
