From "Three-Finger" to Sosa - this collection of
the all-time greatest Cubbie players by team position is
sure to entertain, impress and possibly annoy - but will surely spark many heated debates among devoted fans. Can't say I agree with all the choices, but they certainly did their homework. Lots of pictures and videos, too.
Through 39 games, Chase Utley has hit 13
home runs, tied for the league lead in home

Joe Morgan never did it. Neither did Ryne
Sandberg. Both came close on a pair of occasions
but couldn’t seal the deal. In fact, only one second baseman in major league history has hit 30 homers and stolen 30 bases in the same season — Alfonso Soriano -- until now. Ladies and gentlemen, introducing Brandon Phillips.

Has anyone ever read a pitcher's lips during
a mound visit? According to Ryne Sandberg, yes -
in the 1989 playoffs against the Giants.
The All-Time roster of the Chicago Cubs -
that lowly franchise that hasn't won it all in
almost a century - could defeat any other proposed.
It's Monday... again . That means we are
back to the monotony. Well, when I say we...I
mean the royal "we." Regardless, the hangover from the weekend as always is quite stiff this morning. Sure, the Lions are 2-0, but the Detroit Shock choked away a chance at becoming a true Dynasty. OK, that was totally a joke...serious. Anyhow, the Chargers got bitch slapped in New England, just about
