Whole lotto suckin’ (Blackhawks 2023 offseason)
Irrelevant Dude replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
I am admittedly a relatively uninformed hockey fan, but can someone explain why Kane is or isn't a good comp for Bedard? They would seem to have similar size and skillsets, but Bedard is being labeled a "generational talent." While Kane has been a great player for a very long time, I don't know that I would put him in that category. So is there something about Bedard that makes people think he is another level above Kane, or is the comp simply not a valid one at all? -
Also, they lost a run because of a hamstring injury. That's the way things have been going lately.
-
In West Virginia, is he though?

I'm still refusing to bookmark this new URL, so hopefully the old domain gets transferred back soon.

I can't really say. I always go to StubHub first, but that is primarily because that is what I have experience with. MLB has switched over from StubHub to SeatGeek as their official ticket reseller starting this year, but I'm not sure how many sellers have actually migrated over. I tried listing a couple games on SeatGeek, but I didn't like the options. For example, my tickets are on the aisle but I couldn't find any way to indicate that on the listing. My tickets sat unsold on SeatGeek for awhile, so I pulled them and sold on StubHub instead. I imagine the inventory will start to shift more toward SeatGeek over time, but I don't know how much of it already has.

My tickets are all spoken for on those dates, but from my experience as a ticket seller, you would probably be better off buying on StubHub or SeatGeek than directly through the Cubs. Especially for the weekday game, if you wait until a few days before the game, there will almost certainly be Season Ticket holders trying to dump their tickets below face value.

I don't care what the stats say. If you try to convince me that Tucker Barnhart has a hit this year, I'll call you a liar.
-
Madrigal is the last hope here.
-
Nah, I'm with you. That at bat seemed destined to end up with a hit anyway.
-
Balking the runner in. Really?
-
With the exception of Nico in the 13th, it's dumb that we keep getting our big lumbering oafs as the Manfred men.
-
Were gonna get another stretch folks.
-
Now would be a nice time for Dansby to break out.
-
Angels broadcaster Wayne Randazzo had a nice rant a few weeks ago both before and after the Angels lost in a similar situation.
-
2-14 with RISP
-
I wouldn't pitch to Nico here.
-
Holy horsefeathers Mervis. That was a real tough play.
-
I'm a little surprised the runner didn't get doubled off on that one.
-
Damnit. Mervis had a pitch to hit and Hosmer'd it.
-
Normally I would agree, but with Wisdom having a 50% chance of striking out there, I have no problem with the bunt.
-
Ok Mervis, let's do it.
-
Same here. It's not any sort of protest from me, but I just don't enjoy it. I used to see extra innings games and think "let's see how far this will go." Now I know it's going to be over in an inning or two, and usually anticlimactically.
-
You know he's sitting at home smiling every time someone refers to the runner as the Manfred Man.
-
Double post
-
With Arraez due up, the Cubs need to finish this here.
