The article should of been, "Could the Cubs go After Dunn". That's a more realistic option. Because, Figgins in Cubbie blue will never happen.

Okay, then what's the point?
I don't think the Bears are going 16-0, but I can formulate potential ways they COULD go 16-0 in my head. Is it REALLY report worthy/bloggable (if that's a word)?

I understand 100% how you would feel that way about our "old" Cubs content. However I am very very happy with the quality of writing from the guys at TCB....Justin, Greg, and Ken.
The quality of our home page improved 75% just by adding them. I wouldn't pass a judgement after 1 speculation type opinion blog on the Figgins thing. They are all very good.
EDIT: It's not bloggable....however this is a blog. It's ok if stuff like that goes up on the page. This isn't an official news source. If a writer wants to post their ramblings and opinions, they are 100% open to it. We don't limit them to something as simple as only discuss the game recap.

I'm fine w/ speculation as long as it's realistic and somewhat achievable.

In my district they do, but so do the deans. In other districts they could be on a separate salary schedule.

Oh I'm sorry, maybe you want us to talk about Big East teams being chicks...
Or if Brett Favre was naughty.....
Or about going to a Yankees game tomorrow....
I know, I'll start a thread about who has the best sig on the message board, oh wait...
Or we can talk about what post # this is for me, that's always interesting....
Or play some stupid survivor game...
What's more....we can troll Chicago Breaking Sports for articles in the hopes that we can start a thread on some mundane topic before everybody else does....
Would that be better?

Bold is something i didnt create.
but brett favre being naughty was me. im so sorry i offended you. i thought this was a sports site and sports discussion and a fun site. i didnt know it was about teachers, and bad writers. i do my serious shit with work and come here to not talk about serious "intellectual pissing contest" shit. which this thread has turned into. but if you guys want to talk about liquid money im down for that discussion.

I thought the DePaul one and UCONN (for the picture) were the obvious bests.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought this many people were just fine and dandy with shit articles and interviews representing the site. I also had no clue that morons stick together as well as they have in this thread. Jesus.
