Non-Cub Playoff Megathread Chit-Chat

[We Got The Whole 9]

Blowout time. 

 

 

[Outshined_One]

Just accept it. It's not the Cardinals or the Dodgers or the Yankees, and it goes a long way in showing MLB's ass during the lockout.

[JHBulls]

You know it’s over when 48 year old Steven Matz is getting wheeled out, only for the Brewers to throw out Ashby/Uribe/Megill for the final 9 outs. 

[cl smooth]

*yawn*

[mk49]

Good for them.

[Derwood]

[JHBulls]

The Contreras brothers have become the 10th to win a World Series.

Steve Irwin can rest easy now.

But it does nothing for us.

Only question now is, who will Hoyer actually talk to and negotiate with in 5 days, and will they sign anyone before December 1st

Hoyer is a moron if he waits until after the lockout. It probably won't be over until late Feb.

Also, if IIRC, before the last lockout pretty much all the big names signed before it went into effect.

They deserved it.  Best team in baseball all season.

I honestly wish Hoyer had shown himself the door years ago. He’s not going to compete with these guys. He’s not on this level. Not even close.

70% of the fans there have to be Brewers fans.

I might have low-balled this #

[Gjfificifjdej]

I just hope when the lockout ends theres no salary cap and the schedule is still 162. 

[Stratos]

I bet Counsell really feels like a failure right now.

[Post Count Padder]

Dan Vogelbach wins a WS ring. What a time.

[Post Count Padder]

One-time Cub Trevor Megill with the final out.

[NorthsideAvenger]

Knicks and the Brewers in the same calendar year. Yeah, it's been a very annoying year for sports. 

I know I might be in the minority, I would not be upset if the potential lockout goes well into next season.

If nobody really watched this WS, did it really happen?

Don’t worry, he’ll express interest in Skubal, lowball an offer, throw his hand up and say “I tried” while turning around to over spend on prospects for some washed up rental next july

From a baseball fan POV, it's kind of cool to see a franchise win their first championship, even if it is the Brewers.

From a Cub fan POV, I chuckle at the fact that during the greatest moment of their franchise history, some Brewers fans still have the Cubs on their mind. I do not know about you but when the Cubs won in 2016, the Brewers (and Cardinals) were nowhere near my conscious thought. Yeah it took 2X times as long to win a champiogship than it did the Brewers but I would like to remind the Brewers that it still took the Cubs less time to win their first title than it did the Brewers. Celebrate the accomplishment Brewers fans. I just hope the Brewers good fortune means more bad fortune for the Packers.

I know a ton of brewers fans and none have made mention of the Cubs or their fans. They’re just enjoying the ride!
