    I give up.

    I have lost count of the number of swing-and-misses on pitches that are horribly far out of the strike zone. Plate discipline absolutely sucks. Across the board.

    8:40... my bad. But my point still stands; the turnaround is way too quick.
  4. Cubfanintheknow
    How are they going to play at 9:30 tonight in St. Louis and then 3:10 tomorrow in Milwaukee? Seems kinda unfair to me.

    Would it be too much to ask Adbert to punch a locker? A stint to the IL and a little Des Moines rehab might do him good.
  6. Cubfanintheknow
    Adbert is a mess. He needs fixing on a mound somewhere away from the Cubs.

    Really starting to hate the 9th inning in close ballgames.

    The Cubs have had some pretty crappy losses... but they've always followed them up with a win. They've had two 2-game losing streaks: to Texas to start the year and then San Diego/Seattle. That's somewhat promising. But... that bullpen!🤬

    Using Betternet Free VPN to watch MLB.TV to hide my location. Living in SE Wisconsin, but blacked out. Any suggestions on free/reasonably priced VPN's that work in the Chicago/SE Wisconsin area? Blackout restrictions are so bloody frustrating. Even for away games? Really?

    Bears are allegedly putting up $2 billion toward the cost. But I'll believe that when I see Virginia sign the check.

    In 2015, I bought six tickets to three games. Spent $99. Almost half of that were for two tickets near the Cubs dugout. Going to Mesa in two weeks. $99 basically gets you one seat.

    I keep going back to the moment right after the two minute warning. 3rd down. Picking up a first could have helped them kill all of KC's time outs. Shanahan should have called a time out. Take a look at how KC was lining up defensively. They had the time outs to kill to get it right.

    Not an accident, my friend!😉 I honestly don't know for sure... just a feeling
  14. Cubfanintheknow
    I kind of feel like there's at times a little union pressure to take the highest contract. Kind of a "others struggled so you can get this type of payday" mentality. I'm sure there's also some pressure from agents; a bigger contract means a bigger cut. Probably doesn't happen very often. But I'm fairly sure it's something in the back of the minds of the players looking for a fat payday.

    The number one pick in the draft. The number nine pick in the draft. A flawed yet incredibly athletic, young quarterback who could net the Bears multiple draft picks in a trade. This is a huge tipping point the Bears face that could have an incredibly positive effect on the next 5-10 years. Is Matt Eberflus the person to who leads for the next 5-10 years? I'm of the opinion that he is not. While the Bears improved as a team this season--and I'll give Eberflus credit here--they improved a lot after their first four games, his coaching style cost the Bears a few victories. And it didn't seem like lessons were learned (beginning with week 4 against Denver). Eberflus is RIck Renteria 2.0. Thanks for getting us to this point. We need a next level person at the helm.

    🤬

    They're going to have to break the NIL bank... that's the only way Iowa is going to be able to recruit anyone to play for that dumpster fire of an offense.
  18. Cubfanintheknow
    This statistic is both amusing and maddening. Like others, I've given Eberflus credit for not losing the team... but this is a pretty damning stat.
  19. Cubfanintheknow
    For me... the needle had been moving in favor of keeping Eberflus. He just buried the needle to fire him at season's end.
  20. Cubfanintheknow
    Honestly, I'm kind of digging the fact that in this age if "instant information," no one knows anything. It's kind of comical!
  21. Cubfanintheknow
    Well played!
  22. Cubfanintheknow
    FWIW... This is what Wrigley looks like right now. Not much baseball feels at the moment.
  23. Cubfanintheknow
    The headline should read: I'm Pissed That I'm This Big, Important Reporter And Don't Know Squat About What's Happening
  24. Cubfanintheknow
    Anyone else irrationally refreshing this thread for updates?
  25. Cubfanintheknow
    I will never, ever be that desperate for a World Series trophy.
