I am having trouble even thinking of a Cubs Mt Rushmore. Shouldn't someone on the WS team be on that since they hadn't won in 108 years? I mean Ernie Banks is a no brainer but after that, who?

Sandberg has to be on it

Gil Hodges, Don Mattingly, Edd Rousch, Jim Abbott

Billy Williams, Sandberg, Fergie Jenkins?

 

There is someone I am missing.

Kris Bryant and Jake - Just joking. Actually the 3 you named + Ernie would probably be appropriate.

Going Cards Stan Musial , Bob Gibson Lou Brock the Wizard of OZ

I thought Joe Torre was originally from NY. My brother was friends with his daughter. I believe her name is Lauren.

I feel for Jay because he works days. That would suck if you had to get up at 5am.

Ouch Jay, I wouldn't wish that schedule on anybody. Well, not somebody I like anyway. 

 

I admire your baseball dedication Mr. Kirk in light of that schedule. CBE is right. 

[PrincetonTiger]

Nats had a nice game looks like the Cards are struggling

Yeah day shifts are the toughest for me, I don't wish them on anyone. A lot of people love working days though. I prefer nights when it's more laid back and quiet.

As I teacher, mentor, and coach I have had a lot of long days

My favorite Cubs are Sandberg, Dawson from the 80's, Bryant, Jake now - they aren't the best Cubs of all-time but that is who I grew up watching and watching now.

Not a Cub, but Jackie Robinson should be on any mountain, a brave man that changed baseball forever.

I am mainly nights/2nd shift into nights but fill in on days from time to time. Days are just a killer for me, I am not a morning person and where I work at it's super busy on days.
