Yeah.


Too bad he couldn't keep seasons like that going. I'd be more worried about the Cubbies if they had Z and '03 Prior.

That's how I remembered it, but I thought for him, you find the money.

Really sucks that Prior can't stay healthy. Almost worse that some people think that it's because he's some sort of pansy.
