Wow Hendry is a STUD

ORLANDO -- Jim Hendry has negotiated some big deals before, but he topped himself Wednesday when Ted Lilly signed a four-year, $40 million deal while Hendry was in a hospital bed.

Hendry was taken to a local hospital with apparent chest pains Wednesday afternoon and was admitted overnight for observation.

"Jim was hooked up to an EKG machine, and we got it done," said Lilly's agent, Larry O'Brien.

The Cubs declined to disclose Hendry's ailment, other than to say it was not "life-threatening," and a spokesperson said he would be out of the hospital Thursday morning.

"He's fine," said manager Lou Piniella, who drove Hendry to the hospital. "He's staying overnight. It's more than indigestion, but I don't want to get into it."

He got a deal done while being hooked up to a hospital machine, THAT IS A STUD.:D

Hendry really is a stud, signing Lilly from his hospital bed! Lucky he had Uncle Lou to drive him to the hospital!;)

I officially love Jim Hendry. I wonder if he can still make love while hooked up to that thing.

[Yaow]

Ill be impressed if he negotiates a deal with Meche while lying in a hospital bed as well.

Wow! How can you hate this guy, at least right now? The dude is working so hard to make the Cubbies better he's having to go to the hospital because of it. Another great deal to get Lilly after Schmidt bolted. I agree, officially a STUD!! :D

[Brutus T Manstrength]

hate what guy? we're hating HolyCow for asking if he can still make love..

[HOLYCOW!25]

Wowowowowow! When did this turn to hate!?? :confused: Hate is such a harsh word. I'm sad, and I shall now go in a corner and cry. :(

[Brutus T Manstrength]

after asking if Jim Hendry can still make love you from his hospital bed.. you deserve to cower into a corner and cry..

[HOLYCOW!25]

Well then I see when I am not wanted.

[Shwerve]

I can't believe this someone else calls him Uncle Lou. I was starting to think that I made that nickname up somewhere along the line. I have called him Uncle Lou since the Mariners. Everyone keeps saying Sweet Lou and as a person from Oregon I don't remember him ever being called that name.

And for Hendry's next trick, he'll make a trade with the Red Sox for Manny Ramirez while undergoing open-heart surgery. :D But seriously, folks, anyone who can do what Hendry did in the hospital just rises two notches in my respect-o-meter.

Don't hate on Holycow for this for all we know he just may be trying to get a contract himself.....LMAO

I just heard it somewhere along the line, and from what I've gathered about him, decided it's probably more appropriate to call him "Uncle" than "Sweet"!:rolleyes:

The bastards at cubs.com had better stop the Hendry bashing now. Finishing the deal from a hospital bed is beyond tough. Ill admit during last season i was thinking he had to go, but now, not so much. Wow.
