  1. Yet, the Bulls out rebounded them on the offensive and defensive glass, How the hell did that happen?
  2. Quite a few were a result of trying to do too much. You could see the frustration.
  3. Being outplayed by a vastly inferior rookie in Toronto’ Graves. It’s embarrassing.
  4. Blitz, constantly blitzing Maye will generate some turnovers.
  5. Saw something about Taylor’ punts being hard to read thereby increasing the chances of a muff? Maybe, he’s worth something after all.
  6. Me to. Did you catch Caleb' comments at the end of the game yesterday? Thought I heard him say something about the buildup to the game being Atlanta, Atlanta, Atlanta this and Atlanta that. Think he was pissed off and may have used it as extra motivation. Good, because I believe this week it's going to be Drake Maye, Drake Maye, Drake Maye this and Drake Maye that.
  7. Nor have I, on more than one occasion we've seen flashes of brilliance. After him putting the game out of reach for the Cubs we've seen him bear down, get PO'ed, whatever, on the next batter and execute. Need to find a way to make those flashes of brilliance more than just flashes.
  8. Probably the same approach with Swift, Roschon did look better with Caleb's return. Although he was the primary reason why Atlanta made it close, had he not fumbled, Bears quite probably when by double digits.
  9. Having you any doubt JJ McCarthy will be graded higher? For Caleb it'll be something along the lines of 30-36 is great completion percentage yet, 29 of his 30 completions were off of incorrect reads thereby, making them less effective.
  10. I know, it's annoying as horsefeathers.
  11. Chase DeLauter being from James Madison is somehow associated with West Virginia and they sing a chorus of "Chase DeLauter hit a HR" - I know, it's weird.
  12. This was one of those games where the final score does not indicate how thoroughly the Bears kicked their asses.
  13. I'm certain there's two guys the Bears could get off the street who'll perform better.
  14. Do you believe last year's Indiana team may have been a once-in-a-coaching-lifetime team? Not to take away from this year's good team but, to hold them to the standard of last year's team may be a little unreasonable?
  15. Yes, Indiana has been teeing off on Sayin and that's roughing?
  16. He's pretty good, I'd trade Rome Odunze for him right now.
  17. Hoover is playing hurt and this isn't the same OSU defense the Illini moved the ball on at will.
  18. Yes, I think it'd be a mistake to let some team buy low on Shaw.
  19. Off field nonsense aside I believe we've not seen the best of Shaw. There's a quality hitter in there and given the time it'll rise to the surface.
  20. I'd rather it be the Guardians who end their WS drought however, I think it's going to be the Brewers. Clearly the best team and I do not believe it's close. Even though painful, I look upon the Brewers winning the WS as good outcome for the Cubs. Good in the sense that their efforts are going to take a toll, the over use of some of their relievers will eventually show up in the coming seasons. I know, I know, the argument of their farm system making any breakdowns irrelevant, I refuse to believe in the myth of the Brewers having 10 Uribe's and 10 Asby's ready to step in, they may have one or two. But they sure as sh*t don't have an endless source of top relievers.
  21. Wish or not they'll probably happen, appears to be the curse of or high cost of high velocity.
  22. This is exactly what I've done. Plus isn't there an F'uped version of St. Louis style pizza? Or is it some disgusting sandwich?
  23. Great article. I don't know, the Cubs are lacking in raw stuff, if I'm reading correctly Taira is more guile than raw stuff. Shouldn't the Cubs being trying to move away from this model?
  24. Agree on Milwaukee, only been through St. Louis sounds as if they are no reasons to ever visit on purpose.
  25. Marlins released him, has major control problems, hope the Cubs stick with him. For once I'd like to see the Cubs pull a Jeremiah Estrada or Trevor Megill on another team.
