Yeah, I moved from Chicago to LA and just took what I could fit in my car. Been AirBnBing it until I found a job and my apartment was ready. Fun to live in different neighborhoods but it'll feel good to put down some roots. Moving 100% sucks. You have to account for every damn thing in your life, li...

Right now they are throwing horsefeathers against the wall to see what sticks. Impeachment and removal is over 50% in one the latest polls. If the GOP was smart they’d dump Trump now. He’s behind in high single digits and double digits in WI, MN, and MI. I really don't see how it would be political...

Kamela Harris absolutely sucks ass.

I think I'm kind of sold on Ross. He's buddies with these guys but also has no problem being a hardass when necessary. Feels like we've gotten so sloppy since 2016, maybe he's the right guy to tighten it up. Also I think will work well with Theo. As much as it annoyed me when we had to take him with...

Now that the dam is breaking, I’ve had the sobering thought that these guys just aren’t going to stop. They’re all horsefeathers anyway, why not just say horsefeathers you and horsefeathers the rules? Trump, pence, Barr and Pompeo should absolutely resign. They’re all going to have to be dragged out...

Not bad. Send descalso into the sun with Russell and get another OF for the bench. Hoerner, Bote and Happ should be more than sufficient as backup IFers.

Even without all these extra stories (Pompeo, NRA), Ukraine feels like the one that broke the dam.

Trump has always acted like a lame duck but we're really going to see some historic craziness over the next 15 months.

My sources had always indicated it was Happ.

They wouldn't do it because 1) Many of them agree with him 2) They would be primaried to hell and back 3) it would place them seriously behind in organization and fundraising for 2020, as well as put a major stain on the party for said election. To your points 1) they agree with him politically but...

I don’t like them politically but they’ve been pretty great about spending money. The team and ballpark are in the best shape of my life. They spend but don’t mettle in the baseball side of things at all.

This is an important offseason though.

I have been thinking about this the past couple of days. Why wouldn’t senate repubs vote to remove him from office? They already got a big tax cut and lots of judges out of him. You could do the right thing and talk about how bad corruption is, etc. They have to know this is an unsustainable setup ...

Think it has to be Contreras. Would love to deal him for a good starting pitcher. I think that is need #1. Not sure you could get that for Schwarber.

I also hope Almora and Russell are gone dealt, and maybe Happ too.

It's probably still the Cubs.

Bears potentially have a shot this year with that defense but I don't trust Mitch or Nagy.

I've always thought the Blackhawks might get one more but they've made so many terrible moves it seems unlikely.

Bulls are light years away.

it's weird because as disastrous as this season was, i actually feel better about the cubs going forward than i did last offseason. a lot of the most important players with question marks bounced back this season. contreras, bryant, rizzo, darvish, and schwarber all had years that signficantly boos...

Hopefully Illinois fires Lovie Smith now. He quite frankly sucks ass and gets pantsed regularly.

Just daydreaming about this taking down Trump AND Biden. But no, we're a stupid, cowardly country.

Gary Pressy whacking on his organ is an essential part of the wrigley field experience. I hope they find a worthy replacement.

When I say his last name, I say it as Horner. Like Bob Horner. I bet that's not the way it is actually said, therefore I'm not saying in out loud yet. Let me know. That's how Len said it and he's usually on the ball there. I think you're safe. I know a few people with that spelling of their last na...

Pretty sure I want this guy to be the everyday second baseman next year.

I thought this got bumped because of his horrific take on amateurism in college sports, but a drug issue works too!

Meh; he strikes me as doing the bland, movie star version of being a Tom Brady-type creep, but just slightly smarter enough to not actually be seen with one of those dumb red hats. He knows what he's doing. Also: his head is WAY too horsefeathering big. Yeah but isn't he also a pro-enviornmental Iv...

Sure, if we ignore things like Benghazi: The Movie , his repeated non-answers about wanting to be "not political" despite hanging his career choices at this point on VERY political roles, and the hilarious idea of only Jack Ryan can save the world from a NUCLEAR VENEZUELA, it's like it's ...

I just hope we move on from Maddon this year. Need a reboot.

The Cubs are definitely Jim once you watch the show enough. Likable and pathetic in the early seasons, peaked in like season 3, and then slowly revealed himself to be the huge horsefeathers that, looking back, he kinda always was. Right now they're in "bought his parents house for them to live...
