  1. Nice work. Get through 6 and then hope the bullpen can hang on.
  2. There are honest to goodness statistical arguments to be made that the Cubs are the 4th or 5th best team in the NL. Crazy. As opposed to the fake statistical arguments.
  3. I hate to even think about it, but I can't help but wonder... If the Blackhawks were to lose this game, would they take the high road or completely tear into the officials?
  4. The NHL has to be hoping for the Blackhawks to bail them out now.
  5. Dadgum right this game's gonna be played under protest!
  6. Really, crowd? Is "Detroit sucks" the best thing you can come up with right now?
  7. For the hockey novice, can anyone explain what justifies a penalty shot call? I have seen many similar plays result in regular minor penalties.
  8. Every time I hear "Nyquist" I feel like I'm watching the X-Games.
  9. That came soon after Moreland repeating several times that the Cubs need more slugging percentage to come back in today's game. I get the idea that he was trying to say they need some extra base hits, but he just never gets it quite right. That's kind of like having a batter come to the plate in a game winning situation with a runner on third and saying, "The Cubs could really use some batting average here!"
  10. Yes. I heard it multiple times and I'm surprised they are allowing it..
  11. I feel like someone's dad should be yelling words of encouragement... "Come on kid, just play catch!"
  12. I immediately regret my decision to keep watching this game after Garza was pulled.
  13. Agreed. Extremely annoying and pointless.
  14. Hockey playoffs are such a crapshoot. Start the playoffs with all 30 teams and the worst team in the league could win the Stanley Cup.
  15. I just noticed all the empty seats when the camera panned for the Sweeney home run. What is going on? It is a beautiful Sunday afternoon and the Cubs are actually playing pretty good baseball. Why are people not going to these games?
  16. Terrible "slide", but he should have been safe anyway.
  17. This game is making me sleepy. We have gone from playoff intensity back to what almost feels like a preseason game.
  18. Most likely yes, but you never know what will happen. Putting the NL DH talk aside, it is possible that somewhere down the road the Cubs might determine they want to go forward with Vogelbach instead of Rizzo. As with Castro's contract, Rizzo should be very tradeable if he performs anywhere near expectations. The Cubs Front Office is giving themselves enough flexibility that they will hopefully be able to choose the best of several options and then get something of value for the rest. Rizzo is most likely the long-term guy, but unlike Hendry's contracts, nothing is locked into place.
