  1. if you need some new blood for a gameday starter, i'm willing to sacrifice my well-being for a cubs winning streak*. * starting tomorrow.
  2. Seal boy fouled a ball off his shin and had to be carried off the field
  3. Update on the 2-year old hit by Almora’s foul ball: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/27061819/family-2-year-old-hit-foul-ball-details-injuries
  4. Is there a reason why Pat Hughes is absent from Cubs games this season?
  5. 2005 was the "derrek lee goes HAM" year.
  6. mets fired their pitching coach today and hired phil regan to take his place. phil regan is 82 years old. when phil regan made his mlb debut in 1960, his manager was born in 1892.
  7. Hawk Harrelson sucks, too.
  8. This feels like an NBA Jam game with your buddy when you just shoot 3-pointers and nothing else.
  9. Disco was born from historically black musical genres, and all of the best disco artists were black. I blame Saturday Night Fever and the Bee Gees in general for your viewpoint. this. dance music, especially disco, was "music for [expletive]" in the eyes of the public at that time and all the way up until the late 2000s/early 2010s. there's a deeper conversation about EDM/dubstep (or, at the very least, what america terms "dubstep") masculinizing dance music for heterosexual white dudes that i can get into. also, if you want a REALLY good book about the history of dance music/dj culture, you can't go wrong with last night a dj saved my life: https://www.amazon.com/Last-Night-DJ-Saved-Life/dp/0802146104 deep insight about the history of alan freed, soul music, northern soul, hip-hop, disco, house music, techno, jungle/drum and bass: everything is connected.
  10. Reading that article is the first time I've ever seen the viewpoint that hating on disco was considered an afront against African Americans, Hispanics, and Homosexuals. The only people I ever associated with disco was milquetoast white people in leisure suits. I realize a lot of disco-era songs became anthemic for a lot of cultures, but I never thought hating disco was because of that, I just assumed people hated it because it was nails on a chalkboard to them. Is this a popular viewpoint that I've just been completely oblivious to or is this some old unpopular hot take that's being resurrected in times of heightened sensitivity?

  11. white sox celebrating 40th anniversary of "disco demolition" night
  12. At the bar with the sound off. What happened to wainwright?
  13. rafa won his 12th french open title
  14. I’m pretty sure Houston was mainly a catcher though, right? Mueller was good but had that nasty knee injury. iirc, the cubs used Tyler Houston as a quasi super-utility player during his time with the team.
  15. One of them. Changed his avatar from some random anime character to Trump.
