I promised my partners that I would keep the Cubs banter to a minimum on the Area, but I have to say my peace on Jacque Jones.
Good Bye kind sir. You of the five home runs and the worst arm in the Major Leagues. . .I never once in two seasons saw you throw a ball that wasn't a rainbow or a lawn burner.
Nothing personal, but you never really fit in with the Cubs, I take that back, you fit in with the 1987, 1988, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004. 2005, 2006 and countless other bad Cub teams, but not the New Cubs, the ones who really want to win. Now, I am sure we can discuss the true merit of that statement, but for the time being, I am taking them on their word and looking to Mr. Jones departure as step one in improving a team that clawed and scratched into a division title into one that makes it in with room to spare in 2008.
JJ. . .good luck in Detroit. . .hope you find a nice home in Novi, Romulus or some other nice suburb.

I really do not know Mr. Jones very well. Meaning- he never made the news except for when he did not play good. So I would agree that it does benefit the "Winning" Cubbies for serving him his walking papers.
