Hello, Illinois! I just joined JSH today and am wondering...

Is it always so quiet in here? laugh Okay, here's a topic: Baseball is almost here! Cubs, White Sox, or Cardinals?

Discuss, and be nice! glasses

I started out as a Cubs fan, until they decided Dusty ("Let's Pitch 'em Until Their Arms Fall Off") Baker should be named manager. Any team that would hire that guy is not a team I can root for. (I do like Piniella, though.)

I think the Sox have a better plan, actually -- Konerko has been my favorite player for some years now, although they are going to have some pitching issues.

The Cardinals are too far away, although the Pujols/Rolen/Edmonds lineup was impressive, and that Dizzy Dean was one helluva pitcher!

The first game my dad took me to was 1982-the Cards were HOT that year. Die-hard Cards fan ever since. I take my kids to games a lot. Can't wait for the Cards-Cubs showdowns!

I'm going to a Cubs game in April. I'm excited... and I'm tempted to make my T-Shirt that I wanted to make last year. It was going to read: I [HEART] Pie

cause it looks like pie (the food) but I really meant Pie the player... haha... okay... lame , I know.

Ok, this isnt even a debate..
Cards will finish 2nd to last in the division (Thanks to Pittsburgh, maybe)
Sox will finish 2nd to last in the division (Good old KC)
Cubs will fight it out all year with the surprising Reds, make the playoffs, beat the Mets in the NLCS, and lose to Detroit in the World Series.

Thanks to all who were able to leave grown-up, intelligent, and polite responses supporting the team of their choice (if any).

Except for babyboi, that leaves out the White Sox fans. No surprise, there. laugh
