Hawkeye FB National Championship or Cubs winning the World Series?

[HawkeyeShane]

Steve Stone ... nice. You are correct - it does not sound right when he is doing Sox games. The Blackhawks brought back Pat Foley. The Cubs could do this.

No offense to Bob, but I'd throw him out of the booth myself if the Cubs OK'd Stoney's return!

I would hold the door open for you. Stoney is the best.

Door? I was hoping you'd just move the monitors and Len's notes and get the window for me...

Done and done. Do you think they would let us sing Take Me Out To The Ballgame then?

No doubt that Steve Stone was great.

He and Harry belong in the Baseball broadcaster's Hall of Fame.

When I was a kid Harry did Cardinals games on the radio - and he was fantastic. That was many years before car accidents and other assorted health problems diminished his abilities a little bit, IMO.

He was great with the Cubs even as an old man.

Moises and I share a birthday. Here's a tough question in 2001 a Cubs player hit a HR in the RF stands and it hit a sleeping fan in the face. Who was the player?

 

[nickhawk]

I don't know the HR in face question.

I bet a lot of folks don't know the last Cub to hit an inside the park HR either - it is definitely not a likely candidate.

GEO!

EDIT- The next day they put up a new line in Houston because it should have been a homer anyway.

I don't sing, but I can drink overpriced beers with the best of 'em!!

Iowa, easy choice.

I don't remember who hit that one...since I was asleep in the stands at the time...

Haha. It was the legendary Michael Tucker.

Hawks winning MNC in FB. For me, nothing else in sports even comes close.

 

[pmchawk]

as a hawks and cubs fan Hawks are far more important to me. so Hawkeyes hands down

 

[AEGHawkeye]

I love the Cubs...but I base my entire sports fandom to the Hawks. All about Iowa in the championship...and it's not even close.

 

[KWOODHAWK]

For all you Cubs fans! Anybody know why the State of Iowa doesn't have a professional baseball team? Cause then Illinois would get jealous and want one too!

 

[IOWuh]

I was born and raised in Chicago (north side) and grew up on the Cubs. If it's down to a WS win or a NC, I'm taking Iowa to win the NC. Just don't tell my family.

I must have had a brain fart because I was thinking Buckner was 1st base in 84.

 

[hoffahawk]

Huge Cubs fan but the Hawks hands down.

 

[GhostofBTT]

I guess I will have to go with the Cubs. The nationwide party that will follow this will put NOLA and the Saints to shame.

I would trade the Cubs going 0-162 for a Hawkeye national championship, and I have been a die-hard Cubs fan since before I was in kindergarten.
