A Bunch of Bad Players Have Invaded the Muskbag
This week’s Muskbag somehow manages to revisit Rich Hill. No one revisits Rich Hill. Rich Hill isn’t even going to have visitors at his house for Thanksgiving. But the Muskbag has all the Rich Hill coverage you could possibly want.
Friday Night Fukudome: Harden vs. Peavy
Shockingly, it appears that the Cubs are somehow the frontrunner in the Jake Peavy sweepstakes. If Jim Hendry pulls this trade off, he will have traded for Rich Harden and Peavy, two of the best pitchers in the game, over the course of about four months. And he will have done it with [...]
Muskbag: The Cubs Get “Fixed”
There’s nothing quite like armchair G.M.s to get you fired up for the Winter Meetings. In this week’s Muskbag, a bunch of Cubs fans and Carrie Muskat play G.M. and do what they can to ruin the Cubs. As an added bonus, a commenter LOSES HIS MIND.
Muskbag: The “Bears are Scary!” Edition
What’s worse than a Muskbag about the Cubs? A Muskbag about the Cubs when the Cubs aren’t playing, and there’s nothing really to talk about.
Muskbag: The “Oh, God, They’re Allowing Comments Now” Edition
I have some good news and the greatest news ever. The bad news is that the Muskbag was surprisingly not that dumb this week. It was boring and inane, as usual, but not as obtuse as normal. Ready for the greatest news ever? The Muskbag now allows comments. COMMENTS! [...]
How to Break a 97-Win Team
The only time I read Bleed Cubbie Blue is when someone on Desipio links it. For someone on Desipio to link it, the writing must be worse than normal. So when I saw a link to the hilariously stupid “Building A Cubs Champion: Introducing Your 2009 Chicago Cubs” I had to click it. [...]
Just When I Thought I Was Out, The Muskbag Pulls Me Back In.
You finally get a Godfather quote and it’s from Godfather III. How does THAT feel? Anyhow, I saw the Muskbag was back, and I couldn’t let that aggression go unchecked.
Instant Replay Is Fine, But Already Needs Fixing
I know your thoughts have already turned toward tomorrow night’s early evening’s late afternoon’s NLDS showdown between the Dodgers and the Cubs, but please permit me a brief rant about Bud Selig’s idiocy. I believe it was Sunday when I was listening to Pat and Ron on the radio, and Pat mentioned that on [...]
Friday Night Fukudome: Hoffpauir vs. Pie vs. Ward
If my calculations are correct, there are going to be two roster slots available for the Cubs’ three left-handed hitting outfielders. Let’s let the Fukudome decide who should go to the NLDS (hint, look how happy Daryle looks, you heartless bastards!). You can select two of the three choices.

Sweet Uncle Lou’s Friday Roundup: The “Someday is Today” Edition
First off, Kermit wanted me to let you know that he has the three most important Cubs songs that you need to know before the postseason starts posted in the sidebar now. I don’t even know what a sidebar is. Commie. You guys like how we gave the Brewers a scintilla of [...]
