Is This Thing On? In Cubs News...

Hey-O! Cubs fans. It's been a while since our last post, but you know how it goes, when there is no news, we post, when shit blows up, nothing. If this is your only source for Cubs news (and God help you if it is), let's look at some changes.

Kevin Millar (has almost) signed a minor league deal with the Cubs and will be invited to Spring Training. Known for his yahtzee war cry, "Cowboy Up", Millar was a scab in the '94 MLB strike, but still became a clubhouse favorite when he helped Boston win there first World Series in forever. Although he called himself and his players in Boston, "Idiots", COI does not officially endorse this signing.

Chad TRA-CY! also signed a minor league deal with the Cubs. Tracy was an AZ favorite on the radio show Holmberg's Morning Sickness on KUPD, where he often was made of fun because of the proximity of his eyes to each other. Although he was a Cubs killer while in AZ, he most likely flop and be the next Aaron Miles for the Cubs.

Best outfielder ever, RE-ED Johnson, has signed with the LA Dodgers.

Former Cubs killer (because he sucked with the Cubs), Aaron Miles is back in the NL Central, as he signed with Dusty's Reds, where he will not be clogging the bases.

And finally, the Cubs will "officially" stay in AZ! Of course, like we said before, no plan of funding the project has been finalized, so this could be another long and drawn out process. Keep in touch with COI (yeah, cause we are so on the ball) for more news about Spring Training and such. Pitchers and catchers report in less than 2 weeks, so to get yourself psyched, check out this article I wrote last year about the 5 great things about Cubs Spring Training.

Go Cubs!
