Chicago Cubs fans: what do you think of Sammy Sosa being traded?

[terrya]

It's a done deal, apparently.

1. Inevitable

He did have to go, still 'Thanks for the memories Sammy!'

2. Good riddance...

You colossal, egotistical, aging superstar diva. Hope the O's like a .250 BA, 30 HR, 80 RBI, and 150 Ks a year from their projected cleanup hitter.

6. hell yeah!

Get rid of him, his ego, and the bad karma from using roids and corked bats.

Can we get a left handed replacement too? Maybe use some of the cash we'll be saving (we're still saving $7 million even though $10 million of his contract will be payed by the Cubs) can buy a good reliever too.

3. Is he still any good without his corked bats?

4. He became egotistical and thought it was all about him

Well, let him be that way in Baltimore.

The Cubs need a TEAM to win a world series and Sammy's ego was in the way.

Guess I need to get a new baseball jersey. It had gotten to the point where I didn't feel comfortable wearing the Sammy jersey anyway. he ceased being a mensch, if he ever really was one in the first place.

5. Back in December

I burned my Sosa jersey in protest. Wasn't a waste of money really, it was gift from a friend who's not a friend anymore, so I didn't feel too bad about it. :D
