Hendry just admitted that he was fired on July 22nd. He stayed on to help get all the draft picks signed

Hendry didn't trade players at the deadline because he didn't think it was his decision.

what are all the Cards, Brew, Sox fans going to bitch about when the Cubs do eventually win?

"well, they won, but it took them a long time"

and in fairness to Jim, the Soriano contract was all John McDonaugh's idea, who then left for a higher paying job

Better question, Who are the Cub fans gonna blame now when the Cubs don't win?

I'm not one to hate on the Cubs but annointing Jeff Baker as untouchable leading into the deadline was one of the craziest things I've seen in baseball.

who do you blame for the way the Cardinals are playing this year?

The whole team. They are playing way below what they are capable of.

You don't get it. It doesn't matter if the Cubs win 3 WS in the next 5 years, they are still always going to be known as losers. "In fairness to Jim." Why are you always making excuses? Jim Hendry did the deal for Soriano. You were making excuses for Zambrano, too. ::facepalm::

The better question is how are you going to react if the Cubs ever win the WS? Are you going to dance in the street and be overjoyed? Or is too little too late? Is one championship worth the century of pain? Will all be forgiven once they win?

Apparently you missed Boston in 20004.

Yes, I'd be pretty forgiving if they won one. You can't win 2 until you've won 1.
