General Cubs Chit-Chat

[Banedon]

Great off-day reading. Basically Rizzo, Bryant and Ross talking to each other and giving each other [expletive]

My favorite is either Bryzzo giving Ross crap for running off the field with 2 outs in the NLCS/trying to throw out a runner between first and second after the Diamondbacks won the game or this part:

 

Ross

What did KB say the other day that we were giving him crap for, Rizz? Oh! He was like — freakin’ Golden Boy over here — he said something cheesy like,“I’m just glad I get to play baseball today.” And we just started raggin’ on him like, “You disgust me!”

 

Rizzo

Haha, yeah. “You make me sick!”

Rizzo

It also helps slow the game down when you’re able to do stuff like that. I used to yell at Addison Russell when he was next to me playing second. He’d get a pop-up, and I’d be in his ear like, “Don’t drop it!” Or, “Watch out for that skateboard!” He’s probably glad he’s over at short now … away from me. Haha.

Only 7 games left against playoff contenders now that the Marlins series is over.

I count 30 games against teams that are either currently in a playoff spot or within 2.5 games of a playoff spot

I clearly said playoff contenders, not teams that still think they can play themselves in.

Still more than 7 with 2 series vs SF, 2 vs STL, plus LAD

Yes, the joke is definitely more fun when I have to slowly lead you by the hand through it.

 

There are 4 games against the Giants, and 3 against the Dodgers.

 

Do you get it yet, or do I have to be even less subtle about it?

[Derwood]

I didn't realize this was a St. Louis sucks joke. I mean, that's just too easy

[Ding Dong Johnson]

it wasn't much of a "joke"

Apparently not, since it took a full 3 posts for you to catch up.

Who does Lackey blame when he is bad at golf, the greenskeeper?

[Gilby]

Was KB caught not wearing/promoting a product he endorses in public?? That's a first.

The interesting thing about this is that it seems like his teammates like him.

The first thing I noticed is that it was all white guys. What Dex and fowler can't play golf? I'll bet Javy drives it a mile. Probably swings and misses 20% of the time, though.

i remember talking about it in the game thread

 

 

i love how ross moves out of view and the cameraman doesn't even bother to follow him

Look, he said "boyz," alright? That's as urban as he's allowed to be with Lackey around.

Well let's see.

Lester and Jake - fellow starters they can't screw you. Miggy and Ross - can't piss off your catchers

KB and Riz - too good to be a dick to

Brandon Hyde - Loathes Lackey but relishes hanging out with the other guys

[David]

Hinkse?

[UMFan83]

Hinkse?

 

I cant tell those two apart

 

or at least I dont care enough to distinguish between the two
