10/17 - NLCS Game 3 - dodgers (Darvish) @ World Champs (Prof. Hendricks) - 8:00

[Sammy Sofa]

What? No, they don’t have to sweep the three home games to win.

 

 

No technically they only have to win 2/3 at Wrigley but I don't see how they could win both game 6 and 7 on the road in LA. I know they did so in Cleveland last year but I think this Dodger team is better than that Cleveland team.

You don't see how they could win 2 games in a row in LA?

 

Really? You don't see how that could happen?

 

I don't believe you. I think you do see how that could happen. I think we all see how that could happen.

 

Agreed:

 

[David]

holy crap i don't get how people can continue to form all these narratives every year about the playoffs when none of it means anything

 

how the hell could you not see a very good baseball team win two games in a row anywhere?

Right, but I would rather they win the next 4 games and LA can go horsefeathers off into the offseason

Well, maybe they're blind and they COULDN'T see the Dodgers win the first two games, you JERK.

I had a dream last night. The Cubs are winning this series and Alex Avila is gonna get a huge hit. We have celebrated on the Cards turf, the Nats turf, and we will celebrate on the Dodgers turf.

[WrigleyField 22]

Oh the Cubs could definitely win two in LA, but my heart can't take two, let alone 3 or 4, limination games. So if we could sweep 3 at home, I'm actually likely to keep watching.

[squally1313]

I'd love to see Maddon just totally punt defense. Not really, but I'm bored and I wanted to see how to get Avila in the lineup:

 

1. Bryant (3B)

2. Rizzo (1B)

3. Contreras (RF)

4. Schwarber (LF)

5. Russell (SS)

6. Avila ©

7. Happ (CF)

8. Zobrist (2B)

That defense with Hendricks on the mound? Yeesh.

Just doing some research on game threads that started big turn arounds by the Cubs

 

Game 4 2016 NLCS

 

I'll be more positive in the morning but I don't really have much good to say right now so I'll keep this simple.

 

Go Cubs!

 

Game 5 2016 World Series

 

welcome to gam thread i am treymon

 

cubs are bad they will lose

 

potential game highlights include rizzo maybe getting a hit again and also if you make nachos

[Sammy Sofa]

Christ, imagine if they bomb out of this series and then the only active threads for weeks are these dumb ass Bears threads.

I also called Lackey "Dickbag McHorseteeth" so maybe that's what turned the series around.

hockey, and the Bears. sofa's worst nightmare.

 

better hope we win or all you'll have is the politics thread sofa

[Sammy Sofa]

I'll go into overdrive in the food monstrosities and bathroom nightmares threads. They compliment each other.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I'm gonna spam everyone with way too early hypothetical bullpen additions and impossible best case offseason scenarios, so consider yourself warned.

[minnesotacubsfan]

I plan on just going full on meatball TRUBISKY OR DIE in the bears thread. That, and our ELITE running game. die a slow death, off season.

[minnesotacubsfan]

If you guys want, we can kill this thread and I'll start a new one for games 3 and 4 and we can end this quickly
