    This can’t end well.
    If this is a typo, the new currency will be semicolons.

    “The price of coleslaw futures dipped dramatically today as investors waited for clarity on how the new federal reserve chair will affect the market.”

    @ sitrick:
    We will bail out all banks, whether insolvent or not. It would not be fair to our best banks if only those irresponsible bankrupt ones get bailed out.

    I would enter your bobblehead contest, but I already have the Kyuji bobblehead.

    Did you guys notice the crack in the elbow that looks kind of like a TJS scar?

    The only Fed Chair nominations that happen are the ones you don’t hear about, so you can ignore this rumor.

    President Obama: “Mr. Yellon, I understand your reluctance to continue with the bond buying program and perilously low interest rates, but the economy is still sluggish and we need this jolt to maintain consumer confidence and to make borrowing easier.”

    Mr. Yellon: “This is the worst thing every done in this federal reserve. Think about what you’ve done and come back later.”

    Obama: “Shut me right up.”

    Mr. Yellon: “I can’t argue with you today. Now, if we’re ready to move on, I’d like to discuss my thoughts on Captain Phillips…”

    In other news, I really need a less boring job.

    At least if Yellon was put in that position we would finally get to the bottom of who REALLY owns the cubs…..or the banks?

    Is this the active thread? No more Girardi on the table.

    Who would you guys want?

    Manny Acta?
    AJ Hinch?
    Brad Ausmus?
    The Super Maddux Brothers?
    Maybe Bengie Molina (just throwing that out there)?

    I don’t really know how each guy would do with a crappy ball club anyway, unless the Cubs really retool this offseason.
