Right or wrong, I'm not upset at all by what MB did. He was at his boiling point and AJ pushed him over the edge. I can't blame him. He should and will be suspended. <BR/><BR/>As far as the beautiful old dump up north goes, I used to think that by going, I was encouraging mediocrity. I've changed my mind. It's only been relatively recently that they have been selling out every game and raising prices. They couldn't give away tickets in the 70's and 80's, but that didn't make a better team. Atlanta wins the division every year, but they never sell out the stadium.<BR/><BR/>The cubs are #3 (I think) in total salaries paid, so I also don't buy into the argument that the Tribune Corp needs to open their wallet to produce a winner. They already have opened the wallet, and it hasn't helped.<BR/><BR/>Truth be told, I bleed blue, and it really sucks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16313217.post-1148298818626036652006-05-22T06:53:00.000-05:002006-05-22T06:53:00.000-05:00Anybody read Mike Nadel yesterday?

It's so great to see a little bitch like Pierzynski finally get his comeuppance, and from a thug like Barrett no less. I'm glad it was a Cub who won the "Finally punch the daylights out of AJ Pierzynski" sweepstakes. Oh and US Cellular Field is an absolute joke.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16313217.post-1148258670485428542006-05-21T19:44:00.000-05:002006-05-21T19:44:00.000-05:00He could have slid into home.

There is absolutely no reason to knock a catcher on his ass like that, and possibly cause him great physical harm. That kinda of play should not be allowed. If I were commissioner I'd suspend him for 30 days for intentionally attempting physical harm on an opposing player. That kind of stuff may be OK in football, or even hockey...but, it should not be allowed in baseball. Barrett had every right to hit the bastard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16313217.post-1148226926505415982006-05-21T10:55:00.000-05:002006-05-21T10:55:00.000-05:00i have no problem with AJ bowling over Barrett, it...i have no problem with AJ bowling over Barrett, it was after the initial hit that AJ showed why he is a thug. he claimed he was going to get his helmet...BS go to your dugout asshole..which by the way, was in the opposite direction of his precious helmet. and he lowered his shoulder into MB...he got what he deserved. I can only hope that serves to fire up the Cubs. If the cubs had 7 other position players with the mentality of Michael Barrett, they'd be better off. he doesn't take shit from stupid punks like AJ.<BR/><BR/>Name me a better Catcher in the NL than MB......not Piazza, maybe LoDuca, certainly not that embarrasment in St. Louis.<BR/><BR/>ok i'm done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
