I would just like to take this opportunity to say that, while I appreciate statistics as much as the next guy, some of you guys are REALLY fucking annoying when you argue stats.

You're talking about Huey, aren't you? Leave the poor guy alone. He can't even log onto Desipio correctly.

Nah.  If I was talking about Huey, I would have said YOUSE guys.

Lou didn't win here, and I and others have criticized many of his lineup selections, strategic choices and bullpen use. But he is the most successful Cubs manager in my lifetime, with two straight division titles and three straight winning years; he was unable to leave us with the championship we so long for.

He was 316-293 with the Cubs, so I'd say he did win here.  Trying to crap on Lou instead of, oh I don't know, blaming his boyfriend Dempster for walking the world in the playoffs is yet another good reason to Fire Al Yellon.

I'm very much in favor of Firing Al Yellon, but I think he probably has a billion more fireable offenses than pointing out, quite accurately, that Lou didn't win shit of real significance while managing the Cubs.

Is that Lou's fault in your view?

I will blame him for sticking with Fukudome--and batting that fucking ballerina second for Christ's sake--in the LDS when it was clear that he couldn't hit shit, but I don't know how you could blame Lou for the fact that Mr. Rubber Fucking Chicken shit his boxers in Game 1, unless you wish to argue that Lou should have started Zambrano instead, which would be a pretty clear case of second-guessing.

I certainly don't want to speak for Al, I was just pointing out that of all the dumb shit he's said, this wasn't all that dumb.
He said Lou didn't win big, which he didn't.

We all know who you blame...a certain stubble-faced utility man with a penchant for grounding into double-plays at key moments.

The truth is, the Cubs are so terrible this season that not even nitpicking Al Yellon is fun anymore.

Since Lee was on the cover of the last one, how about someone who can have a bad season without hurting the team?  Like, say, Samardzija.

Sums up my entire life as a Cub fan perfectly. In fact, the Cubs have given us all anal.
