Hire Jim Essian

Another week passes, and another comment rises to fame. This week’s star comment comes from our Milton Bradley discussion.





EnricoPallazzo paints this dream scenario (seriously) which will, unfortunately, probably never happen.

I say we suspend Cubs baseball for a period of two years. Trade away any talent we have at the AAA and above level for money (to pay current salaries we can’t dump) and a shitload of prospects. Use the next two years to stock the farm team. Also tear down that shithole park and build a new one during this time period. Come 2012 we’ll have a new park, a young team, low payroll; the chads and trixies will have found something else to do with their summer afternoons so they’ll be gone…basically the Cubs will be set for the future for the first time in my life.

Maybe add in the possibility of a younger, handsomer manager. Maybe someone with some history in the Cub organization. Other than that, I like it. Congratulations, EnricoPallazzo!
