To everyone that didn't heed tree's advice and is posting in this thread:

 

[Sosa21MVP]

welp time to inject drano into the forehead.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

He didn't deserve vowels. He is just rrt

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I'm really glad we were smart enough not to extend him.

 

Yep. We did the smart thing and gave that money to Jason Heyward instead.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Yeah it is time to get worried. I don't even think the playoffs are a sure thing anymore.

 

90% of your posts appear to be looking for reasons to be unhappy with the Cubs. Things are very bad right now, but the Cubs should be a thing that makes you happy.

its funny how now that jake sucks he looks like a psychotic dick head on the bench rather than an intense competitor

[Bryants Disco Ball]

So if Jake has a great season next year does he get all the money be and Boras planned on getting or has this fucked him no matter what?

[philosophizer75]

It's like all the things that we were doing right for the first 2ish months we are just doing wrong now. That's how it feels anyway =(

Duke is pissed.

How can anything that has happened in the last 3 weeks make you happy?

[Little Slide Rooter]

The good news is that worst case scenario, we go into the ASB with a 5 game division lead. Maybe we're not as good as the first 2 months lead us to believe, but we're damn sure not as bad as we've been the past 3 weeks or so. And how ironic will it be when after all that Jed and Theo have done over the past 3 years if the final piece of the puzzle is Rich horsefeathering Hill. horsefeathers it, I'm out. Get some rest. Ass holes.

Because we're not all manic depressives whose mental well being hinges on a baseball team?

I've always believed if a fan is watching the games and actively posts on a message board that some of their mental well-being is tied to their baseball team.

Setting aside that the Cubs have not been literally devoid of positive outcomes for the last 3 weeks, I'm making a broader point. If your relationship with the Cubs is that you are actively seeking out impending doom all the time, then maybe something is a bit off.

[philosophizer75]

You're probably not wrong about that.

[illiniguy]

What, in the literal hell, has happened to us?

[Gilby]

Did McCutchen literally lose all of his speed? That was a blooper with 2 outs.

[ScrubMD]

Gameday says Marte swung at a pitch behind him. That seems implausible.

[Cubswin11]

So Arrieta is pretty much Rich Harden at this point. Which isn't bad, but it's not great Bob

[Bryants Disco Ball]

If the Brewers could somehow beat the Cards tonight we can still be 8 up in the loss column.

 

Just looking for a positive.

[Cubbie Swagger]

Ugh, Jake.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I feel like Harden was actually mostly dominant during his 5 innings, though.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Imagine that.
