  1. When you think about the injuries, their best hitters checking out for nearly 3 months and the Cubs still finished, at most, only 5 games behind the Brewers. A Brewers team that went nuclear for a month, makes me question just how much better or superior the Brewers are to the Cubs. Hope they can find a way to get past SD in the WC.
  2. Justin Field like numbers from the Bears. thought we were done with this kind of horsefeathers.
  3. Defensively, they'll stuff IU, Mendoza will crumble under PSU' pass rush. Question is will PSU be able to do more than run the ball?
  4. Just saw the replay and holy horsefeathers did the officials completely miss on Feagin' "fumble". Not even close to being a fumble, he's clearly down with the ball. Typical ball carrier down with the ball gets it ripped out after the play and defense acts like it's fumble. Guess it sometimes works with a dumb ass crew.
  5. Think it's fantastic the Astros are out, most especially after all the BS that was posted here about Cam Smith' greatness. Would really love to see the Mets not make the post season as well.
  6. I think that as well, they're starting to play well. Really don't think the Reds or Mets are going to offer much resistance in the WC.
  7. Thought PSU played really well in coming back, they looked dead in the mud after Oregon went up 17-3. Looked as Allar may have had it up sidelines just an inexplicably bad pass.
  8. Glad the Cubs put any chance of SD hosting the WC to bed, very, very nice.
  9. Indiana is the better team but, like you said, the Illini had an incredible number of things go wrong. They lost a horsefeathers ton of their starting defense to injury including nearly every DB on their roster.
  10. Might have been different had the Iowa QB not gotten hurt. I'm fairly confident they're going to get blown out in Eugene next week.
  11. Also, Illinois lost 6 of their starting 11 on defense to injury during the game. They literally had all but one DB on the roster get hurt.
  12. Did not expect this today from the Illini. Shocking, thought they were going to get blown off the field, they didn't. And even overcame a completely egregious fumble call against them - Feagin was down. Still, good for the Illini showing some pride, heart, toughness.
  13. Mets are done as well. No way they're going to win the next two in Miami. Believe the Reds will manage a split over the weekend. Ha, ha Mets, goodbye.
  14. I knew Horton was done, it was false hope to consider otherwise, key is the first game. Cubs take the first game and they've a very good chance to advance.
  15. We've been frustrated at times by Dansby' errors, could be worse, Cubs could have De La Cruz. For every highlight real throw he makes he tempers those with boneheaded lapses in attention and kicks some easy GB's. Which he just did a few moments ago, Dansby is always solid.
  16. Sucks the Cubs couldn't win this one, does setup the Mets falling on their faces in Miami which would be awesome and hilarious. Alcantara going tonight for the Marlins, he's been pretty good of late.
  17. Cowherd has said many of the same things about Caleb almost verbatim. Although his main line of attack has been Caleb wants to play every down off schedule backyard ball style. There is some truth to this, I think what we're beginning to see is Ben Johnson is helping Caleb to break this habit.
  18. Lodolo left the game for the Reds with a groin related concern, that's not good for the Reds. Groin stuff almost never turns out to be a short term injury.
  19. Not enough, I want some more Mets pain at the hands of the Cubs.
  20. Hope the Reds win, this could be a game were the Cubs could hurt the Mets. Come on Cubs, just once, kick the Mets in balls, a little payback for 1969, that horsefeathers Victor Diaz HR in 2004 and the 2015 NLCS.
  21. Just spitballing here, could Soroka be an option as well?
  22. I don't want to see Assad or Rea anywhere near an elimination game or even, the playoff roster for that matter. Might was well go with a bullpen game you've got no chance with Assad or Rea.
  23. Provided the Cubs make to a third game, why not Wicks?
