Hey, hope that everyone is doing well today. So as you may or may not know, I live in Central California, surrounded by Giants and Dodgers fans and a few Angels, A's and Padres fans sprinkled in among them. This makes for lots of baseball on tv, radio and in the papers to watch, listen to or read about which is great. But during the off season, when football comes around forget it, especially this year. I'm a Cowboys fan, so I rarely get to watch them play on tv unless it's an early game or a Monday night game. We get the pleasure of watching the 49ers and Raiders, nice huh? Talk about some exciting football....Raiders last game, they only got 3 first downs.....3...that is ridiculous, that is what you get in the first possession or two. The Niners aren't so bad, they play better football, but still aren't winning. I'm not a fan of either team, but am a football fan and to be subjected to the blunders of both teams is too much. Not so much the Niners, but the Raiders with Al Davis ruling with an iron fist and doing poorly if I might add, it's just too comical. That team is the laughing stock of the NFL, they should be forced to forfeit their remaining games and not put us through the misery of watching them play. They should be given the opportunity to start their pre-season now. I would rather watch the Cubs/Dodgers series again than watch the Raiders play.....well maybe not.......that was too painful for me, for us Cubs fans. I can't wait for baseballs pre-season to start up again. I want to know who is going to play with what team, who will move for big money, who will stay put for big money. What will the Cubs do to get us to the World Series? What plans do they have written up to get us there? What players names do they have written down that may be in Cubs blue next season? My inquiring mind wants to know.......now......I can't wait......I want to watch some baseball, I want to watch Cubs baseball........time to check Jens countdown counter and see how many days are left.......Go Cubs!

My husband is a Niners fan! It's been pretty rough for him the past few years. We seem to get a ton of Cowboys games here (which I rather enjoy as a T.O. fan) but have yet to see a single 49ers game. I've tried to persuade him to get the Season Ticket package since he has no prob with me getting Extra Innings but he would rather watch good football than his own team, a concept that is truly foreign to me as a baseball fan.
149 days! I'm ready for some deals to get made! I keep going back and forth on what I think we need and how I feel about the rumors. I still stand firm on not changing *too* much from a 97-game winner. You think Peavy's gonna happen?
I think Peavy can happen, but at a cost that may not benefit the Cubs, unless they sign Peavy to a long term contract then that would be ok.
