That's suck.

Never happen but that would be a major

But we'd have a new president by then, so it wouldn't be Obama. Or at least I hope we would.

reiterating son.

stop cherry picking little tid bits and read the whole post next time, you did not comment on anything else but that.

I agreed with the rest of the post, though.

You didn't make that too clear.

Agreed.


^^ I don't like to do that.

I don't see the Dodgers doing much of anything until the McCourt situation is finished.

I agree, just saying if they were in it, they have the $$$

 

[ChiSportsRich]

Agreed.

U really shouldnt need to state, "i agree with the whole post, except ...", should just be assumed.

It’s apparent that talks between the Cardinals and Albert Pujols “are not going as smoothly as the Cardinals want,” Olney writes. Click here to vote on Pujols’ future in St. Louis.

Why you dancin? Not like you have the money for him.

Ya, actually the Cubs will have the money for him after this season.

Just wondering, but why is there so many White Sox fans who keep on posting here? Are the Cubs fans flocking to their forum to post? I wouldn't ever even consider clicking on their tab but i see them posting here ALL the time. What gives?

It doesn't bother me as long as its good healthy convo..

If it starts to be anti-Cub in any way that isn't joking around (too much)

I report it.. Im here to talk about the Cubs.

With that premise running we've had very few issues with the Sox posters.. Most if not almost all of them are quality guys.

i am sure the cardinals will do everything in their power and pocketbook to resign Pujols. I would really hate to tie that much money up in one guy. It takes more than one guy to win a world series and overspending has never helped the Cubs in the past!!

Yeah, it's not like we have like 40 million coming off the books next year or anything...

It doesn't sound like Albert Pujols’ representatives are going to be shy in their negotiations with the Cardinals. There are early indications that Pujols and agent Dan Lozano have used Alex Rodriguez’s ten-year $275MM contract as the lone point of reference in discussions for a potential extension, according to Jon Heyman of SI.com.

However, the Cardinals “are said to have initially suggested a contract that would guarantee Pujols at least a bit less than $200MM,” Heyman writes. Heyman’s sources believe the Cardinals would prefer not to guarantee Pujols more than seven years. One person said the Cards could offer a seven-year, $196MM deal. Other insiders suggest the team could agree to a $30MM annual salary or a ten-year deal, but not both.

Most people Heyman surveyed suggest Pujols won’t top $250MM if he signs an extension, since he is not negotiating on the open market and since the Yankees and Red Sox have established first basemen.

Not looking good for STL. All the Cards fans comments are saying that its made up and a complete lie though. They are in so much denial. Not saying they won't sign him, but they claim Heyman is making it up and that it is impossible to know anything about a contract negotiation, lol.

Unless it turns out his age is inaccurate Pujuls would do nothing but improve any team for years.
