8/27 Cubs (Lester) vs Mets (Syndergaard): 7:05 PM on NBC Sports Chicago

[Brian707]

Wouldn't be surprised to learn Len checks in. Besides cubs.com I don't know of any cubs message boards that get any kind of traffic.

 

Haven't looked at it enough to know what kind of quality it is, but based on the numbers it looks like /r/chicubs is far bigger than NSBB...755 comments on the game thread yesterday, for example.

 

 

I just hate the format of reddit. I do like the AMA, maybe we could get Len or Pat to do one here

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I would bet a trillion Bison bucks that the only person ever employed by the Cubs who has posted here is Roast.

 

MAYBE one of the dudes who's played Clark, too.

 

It's going to be hilarious the day Duker finally tells everyone he's Jed.

 

Spanking it to all these dongs lately.

anyone remember, years ago, on the old Cubs.com board, there was this guy who used to do pregame writeups, 1900-sportswriter style? It was absolute genius, he was out of place there. Anyone remember that?

we already had a q&a with Len here once

[Omar]

wasn't that like 13 years ago?

[Sammys Boombox]

Since June 26 the Cubs are playing at a 104-win pace.

 

With the winning streak, what we are since the All-Star break?

 

94-95. Pretty much right where we have been pacing for most of the year.

At one point Len had an account here, though he only used it to do the Q&A.

[Tim]

Bruce Miles has an account here and he actually used to pop in and post once in a while back in the day.

I remember this. Kinda neat to have a local "celeb" post.

counterpoint: Bruce Miles was bland and opinionless

I’ll take informed over opinionated every day.

counterpoint: Bruce Miles was bland and opinionless

I’ll take the blandness and opinionlessness of the Miles, Gonzales, Sharma (to an extent I’d say he’s more bland than an opinion guy) etc of the world over the opinions of the Rogers (x2), Morrisey’s, etc of the world any day

[NotSoSober]

the Mets lineup is embarrassing. I fully expect a no hitter tonight

[soccer10k]

Great start, Jon.

What if they all get a hit instead?

[UMFan83]

Not how you want to start a game against Thor

[Cubswin11]

Great start, Jon.

If Willy isn’t going to hit he better start playing some horsefeathering defense. Dropping that ball is inexcusable

[TMan92]

Can you stop horsefeathering doing that

[Bryants Disco Ball]

So disappointing. What exactly are we doing there?

[UMFan83]

Is that 2 TOOTBLANs in 3 games for Javy? Come on man. Can’t give away outs when you have a scoring chance against this guy

[TMan92]

And we give up a run because it. So frustrating

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I'm going to pretend that Rizzo would have grounded into a DP, so having one run in and a guy on second is better than one run in and two outs.

[Stu]

And on cue, as soon as Javy gets picked off, Rizzo doubles

[Bryants Disco Ball]

And we give up a run because it. So frustrating

 

I'm always more curious about the thought process. It seemed like a bad thought process.
