The headline at the top of the page reads "A Chicago Cubs Fan Community Since February 9, 2005", "A Repository Of Hopeless Idiots Avoiding Intellectually Honest Discourse And Critical Analysis Since February 9th, 2005" and that's the most concise way I can describe this site.

Really?  That's THE most concise way you can find to describe your site?

I think mine is more concise.

Yes, but certainly not as pithy.

BCB is NOT a message board. It isn't a talk radio call-in show. The headline at the top of the page reads "A Chicago Cubs Fan Community Since February 9, 2005", and that's the most concise way I can describe this site. BCB itself is a blog, one which has built a community feel to it over the last 4 years. And unlike some blogs that talk at you, BCB offers FanPosts and FanShots where you can drive the conversation.

Delusional self-importance, thy name is Al Yellon.

All this time I have ripped on Al for being a self-important doucheface--which he is--but seriously.  How can any self-respecting "fan" stand to spend their time at a place where this schoolmarm is constantly  telling them how to express themsleves?  As bad as Al is, his legions--for actually sitting though his 13,000 word finger-wagging lecture and subsequently agreeing to his cockamanie new rules--need to be naturally selected out of the gene pool.

Dolan is right.  Thank God those idiots are over there instead of over here, ruining this place.  If this place is going to get ruined, at least it's going to be by someone who thinks for himself.  Like TDubbs.

But I don't know what to think about this post.  SHUT IT DOWN!!!!!!!

I heard the "T" stands for "Trotsky".

Poor Headline: Orlando Hudson (this is an actual FanPost headline from last weekend)
Good Headline: Should The Cubs Have Gone After Orlando Hudson?

TCR's headline from yesterday at 7:10 p.m.:  Should the Cubs Have Signed Orlando Hudson?

Fuck you, Dane Yellon.  Seriously.

Oh god, why?

Sharp-eyed BCB reader Beaushek noticed this last night and posted this FanShot, but I wanted to take this space this morning to officially announce that SBN and Yahoo! Sports have partnered to put posts from SBN blogs on team pages at Yahoo.

You can see it this morning at Yahoo's Cubs page -- there is a box with BCB front-page posts prominently featured right below Yahoo's own news headlines.

Here's a typical BCB douche:

No way, man.  Some of those blogs are about as savory as a shit sandwich.
