Yes! My Cubbies won the first game of their double header today against the Cardinals. The Cubs are now on a 4 game win streak and the Cards are on a 8 game losing streak, so I don't care what the Cubs do in the second game tonight because the Cardinals (barring some miracle) are out of any type of playoff contention. Now we just have to worry about the Brewers, but I really think the Cubs are gonna take the division and make it to the playoffs. I know it's naive and premature to talk about the Cubs making the World Series, but I have some rules that I think they should enforce in the playoffs so they don't blow their chance at the big game like they did in 2003:

1.) NOBODY can sit in the first two rows of seats along the foul lines. (Thank Steve Bartman for this rule.)

2.) If somebody wants to bring their pet goat to the game, FOR GOSH SAKES LET THEM!

3.) Every time the Cubs give up a run in the playoffs they should all look up at the WGN Radio booth at Ron Santo and how disappointed he looks. He's the biggest Cubs fan on Earth and a Cubs legend. Win it for him.

Those are the only rules I can think of right now. I'm sure more will come to mind.

Do i have to?

I'd imagine a mod will classify that as "lewd" (see rule 1 here, regarding avatars).

 

[MacHeadCase]

Do i have to?

Hmm.

How can I say this?...

Looks like the teddy and deer are a bit too friendly, ya dig?

It's up to you: you can change it or the avie will be reported and the staff will do the deleting.

We try to maintain a family-friendly atmosphere here, so things like this are generally frowned upon. There are many other Mac-related forums that are not as conservative, so if it's a big deal to you, you may want to check out one of those.

Whatever, dude - honestly, I don't care. I'm just trying to acquaint you with the atmosphere here, which apparently you've misunderstood. In my mind, it's better to get a head's up from the members than it is to get an infraction charged to you by a mod. 'Nuff said on this one, OK?

 

[hotdog182]

What's an infraction?

 

[MacHeadCase]

A police ticket except handed out by the forum staff. It can go anywhere from a simple warning via PM, to a suspension to a temporary banning or a perpetual banning, depending on the severity of what was done.

Looks like you ought to read this.

 

[hotdog182]

kinda like an ASBO

 

[MacHeadCase]

Asbo?

 

[hotdog182]

It's an english thing.

 

[TheCustomer99]

ASBO = Anti Social Behaviour Order - Used against unruly youths who cannot conform to normal society's rules and regulations.

LOL, basically, he's saying he's an unruly youth who cannot conform to normal society's rules and regulations.
