    Carolina' last TD was a garbage time TD sure, but, horsefeathers stop letting them score in garbage time.
  2. gflore34
    One more stop hell, even a FG, ought to do it.
  3. gflore34
    I thought the same, appeared contact was made well before the pass.
  4. gflore34
    My guess is Carolina is doubling and holding him.
  5. gflore34
    Bears will march right down the field and score again, will the defense be able to get a stop or two?

    Cubs haven't won a game Boyd has started since 8/9, lost the last 5. Not all of it has been the fault of Boyd, he's pitched well enough to win in 3 of those 5 losses. Inevitably some combination of bad managerial moves and bad bullpen, well, mainly bad bullpen has cost the Cubs. Be awfully nice to put an end to that streak while the Braves finish off the Phillies.

    A day late on the prediction - Cubs bullpen comes through in a high leverage situation. I know, it's more a blind squirrel finds a nut or a broken clock is right twice a day. Honestly, I thought it was over after Nico helped to give the Pirates the lead. Probably, a game they should not have won but, hey, they certainly lost a sh*t ton of games they should have won.

    Still don't believe the Diamondbacks are all that good, Rangers however, are terrible. Thought the Cubs might be able to pick up a game on Diamondbacks, don't see the Rangers beating them.
  9. gflore34
    Rangers just aren't good, how the hell did the Cubs lose 2 of 3 to them? Kelly is awful and they couldn't do more damage than 1 run.
  10. gflore34
    Given what's lately happened to the Cubs, I say turn about is fair play. It's about time.
  11. gflore34
    In a flip of the recent script tonight is going to be a good night for the Cubs. One of Diamondbacks or Phillies is going down tonight.
  12. gflore34
    Might be okay if Palencia was or is right, he's not.
  13. gflore34
    My bold prediction for today - a high leverage Cub reliever where go where no Cub reliever has gone: the land of effectiveness. All kidding aside, one of them has be effective, right? You know even a blind squirrel finds a nut, etc.
  14. gflore34
    It's very close for me, nevertheless, I'm probably with you. The Dodgers winning is getting really tiresome - I loathe Ohtani, respect him as a player, but, I loathe that MFer - it's still a better alternative than the Brewers winning a WS.
  15. gflore34
    Not expecting anything from Steele or Wiggins this season hopefully, the Cubs aren't either. Miller and Cabrera? Let's give them a shot, catapult Theilbar and Thornton into the sun.
  16. gflore34
    I wouldn't say they cheat, yes, they've had a very successful run at development and hit on every player acquisition. It won't last forever, too many random variables in play.
  17. gflore34
    I don't believe Maye is as special as everyone touts, though one thing, I guess, in his defense, is he doesn't have an exactly stellar or good receiving group. AJ Brown, 29, coming off a down year in receiving yardage and Romeo Doubs are their big additions to the WR room.
  18. gflore34
    How much evidence do the Cubs need is he cooked for 2026? He's not at 100%, shut him the horsefeathers down.
  19. gflore34
    It's not luck. Though their MO is largely predicated on capitalizing or forcing teams into mistakes. Regular season against predominately bad teams their MO works. Against teams who are in the PS because they don't make many mistakes their MO falls on it face.
  20. gflore34
    2015 - the Cubs owned the Mets, 7-0 in the regular season and we all remember what happened in the PS. This, despite the Brewers being 9-4 against the Cubs, is what gives me a little hope. As you said playoffs are a different game, regular season trends don't mean anything, struggling pitchers with the stuff to dominate find it for a couple of weeks, etc.
  21. gflore34
    Of course there would be a huge uproar, if Maye was anything but white he'd be horsefeathers upon. Given that racism is a feature of this country it'd shouldn't be a surprise it's a part of professional sports. Still the ignorance and utter stupidity of racism pisses me off everywhere.
  22. gflore34
    It would be on script if the Brewers managed to win the WS because Shohei was out. Very similar to what happened with the Cubs - any effective pitcher went down with injury and of course, the Brewers feasted on replacement level pitching. Had the Cubs maintained any semblance of pitching heath it would have been a far different story.
  23. gflore34
    horsefeathers Chourio in the ear, I wouldn't take a million Jackson Chourio's over PCA. Going to eat me some schadenfreude when the Dodgers chew up and spit out the Brewers in the PS.
  24. gflore34
    Me neither, PCA does some damage gets up to 10 fWAR and my bingo card has Palencia imploding tonight. Don't think Palencia should be pitching, Craig has no choice, Webb shouldn't be available/used.
  25. gflore34
    I was just thinking about this...Brewers really don't have a lock down closer do they? They've plenty of arms they could use, nevertheless, Megill can be had, the Cubs have hit him hard. Other playoff teams will do so, maybe, their Achilles Heal?
