2015 Cubs Positivity Thread

[Sammys Boombox]

I love the hype video. The same guy made a hype video before the season started and it has the same intro and music. I'm really looking forward to whatever season recap montage ABC7, WGN and/or CSN put together whenever the Cubs clinch.

A little too much old stuff at the beginning

 

lmao bryant's home runs look so shitty

[OleMissCub]

Does Miggy ever pull a HR?

[weis21]

Didn't he in SF just a few days ago?

Not sure where to stick this, but the whole controlling the strike zone thing seems to be a reality on the pitching side of things:

They actually seem like a bunch of good dudes.

[Banedon]

Yeah, I looked through that earlier and found them to be not very entertaining in a misery porn sort of way.

[davell]

I'm just shocked they've spent more time on it than we have honestly. They're at 17 pages since yesterday on Arrieta.

What does Bigbird say about it though?

IDK, I think Analyzing that move and the loss of "unlocked Arrieta" would generate similar debate, wonderment, degree of posting, than celebrating it. Only thing we can do is praise our stud, talk about filthiness. Think the former has more potential for debate than pure praise.

obviously lol at RBI, but this is still a fun byproduct of how good our offense has been

this video is awesome if you don't mind the song choice...also the game audio is a little rough at the beginning

 

but it seems like it contains a year's worth of dongs

Why lol at RBI? This is the perfect context for it, essentially acknowledging that it is somewhat of a team stat.

Welp. Those were probably the 13 happiest minutes of my day (until the Cubs win tonight, of course).

 

Also, it kind of makes me sad that Castro isn't a part of your sig anymore. But I'm afraid that adding him back would reverse his positive mojo. Can you post the original pic? Maybe I'll just cut him out and make him my sig.

i think you know exactly why lol at RBI, considering the rest of your post acknowledges it. my lol had nothing to do with the context. it had to do with loling at a crappy stat that was (and still is by much of the general masses) read into far too much for decades.

[Derwood]

I guess, though in this instance it reads to me as "the Cubs have a lot of men on base for their core hitters, and those hitters are getting hits with RISP. it means something

I dunno, I felt like you were laughing it off as a stat with no value, while giving an example of why it has value.

 

I guess I was reading too much into a "lol"

runs, which RBIs measure, obviously have value...therefore RBIs themselves have obvious huge value in that they are runs.

 

RBI as a statistic has basically no value given the fact that there are about 10000 better ones available (including, for measuring runs scored by an offense, "runs").

[Careless]

I was just thinking about how happy looking at the run scoring plays and seeing the names involved makes me.

Bull is right, no need to lol at rbi in that context
