Yeah, if we weren't so hung up on finding a speedy leadoff hitter, Lee would have been ideal. I also find it hilarious that at the time, people were predicting that Lee would have been a worse fielder than Soriano a few years into his contract.

A lot of people were blinded by his awesome outfield assist numbers. Even after his first year in Chicago there were people saying he should have won a Gold Glove.

The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.
