Ken "Hawk" Harrelson by the end of his career will likely be considered the greatest sports broadcaster in Chicago sports history. Even greater than Harry Caray, Jack Brickhouse or Pat Hughes. Hawks great voice and southern charm will no doubt land him a Frick award just like Harry.
What makes Hawk superior to Cary is his use of catch phrases such as "Ga

This is from a Sox fan, and I posted this as a note on facebook and on the Sox thread too. I guess you can just bypass the Sox stuff and go right to the Cubs. This is just my opinions, not trying to be a jacka*s or anything. Plus, I would like for cubs fans to answer a few of those questions, espically the

Mr. Kruk is predicting that Carpenter is going to OWN the Cubs today ... I didn't care for him as a player and I certainly don't care for him as a analyst ... I'm hoping we put a 5 spot on him early

1st half of the season is quickly coming to a close. The Cubs are basically back to 100% strength thanks to the return of beloved third basement Aramis Ramirez along with the gritty Reed Johnson and

Some whisperings of Randy Wells' ROY potential starting to stir. All Cubs fans know that his win total should be higher, but it is what it is. I have rapidly become a fan of Wells, and was recently talking about the pitching staff with some family and we decided to rank th

I read the Scott Miller take that the Cubs are the clear class of the Central Division and respectfully disagree. I thought going into this season that St. Louis was going to be very difficult to beat if they get any pitching. Even with the loss of Chris Carpenter t

I know the Cubs likely do not have the resources to get him financially, but if you were the Jays would Vitters, Wells and another prospect (Stevens/Cashner/Archer/Castillo) at least put the Cubs on the radar?
I know there are some on here that do not think that SP is a need for the Cubs, but we are talking about a perennial Cy

Josh Vitters is the only cub on the list. Anyone know how close he is to the majors? Feel like I've been hearing about him forever.

I'm reading that Paul Sullivan went up to Carlos Zambrano with something like "according to a recent poll, 57.2% of Cubs fans want you traded..." To which, Carlos responded something along the lines of "fine trade me to Boston."
