Chicago Cubs' Ryan Dempster could miss month with broken toe
If Lou Piniella had not banned the term two weeks ago in Detroit, Ryan Dempster 's broken toe certainly would classify as a "Cubbie Occurrence." But the Cubs weren't laughing Tuesday when it was announced Dempster would miss up to a month of action after breaking the big toe on his right foot while jumping over the dugout fence after Sunday's ...

The Atlanta announcers chortled like magpies tonight about Ryan Dempster being almost invincible at Wrigley Field and signing a 4-year $50+ million contract before the season. Too bad the Cubs didn't have a celebration clause in the contract. Oh well, I'm sure the parade of substitute starters - Kevin Hart tomorrow night, will fill in the gap nicely for the next month or more.

My son, who is more of a Cubs fanatic than me (poor kid), reminded me tonight of the famous stunt promising Cubs pitcher Mike Harkey pulled doing warm ups in the outfield a decade or more ago in Wrigley Field.
Harkey showed a teammate, or maybe was challenged by a teammate to do a back flip. The stunt and resulting injury effectly took care of Harkey's budding career. On a more positive note, Ramirez got a couple of hits and it looks like he'll be back in good shape soon. But the stupid injury to Dempter.......... |

Provide 24/7 guards to each player to protect the Cubs from themselves.

Yet another moment in Cub lore that adds to the team's "legendary", and lofty, status. What a joke of an organization.

this is a 'cubbie occurance'. i mean, how do you rip your toe nail & break your toe with your shoe on??? i could understand being in bare feet, but his foot was fully shoed.

Is Steve Stone allowed to speak honestly about this?
|

At least he didn't pull a Woody and break it getting out of a hot tub.

Stupid Canadians.

who was the Cub pitcher coming in to either start or relieve back in the late 1950's and slipped on the mound and had to be carried off..never threw a pitch? paul minner perhaps?

Sagittarius
Work and reputation remain the focus, but tension from yesterday should begin to abate. Your business associations take on a friendlier tone as the Moon and Venus join forces, so offer the olive branch to someone you normally disagree with. You'll enjoy your public life today whether you are a CEO or a homemaker, so get out and smile at someone. You'll be amazed at the response.
