The Cubs did a very nice thing by allowing other teams to believe they have a chance. The time for that has passed. We have a losing record for the first time in over 2 years. This sort of nonsense demands blood. Unfortunately for Milwaukee, Jimmy Nelson is the man who must pay for their insolence. Unleash the dongs.
It's sort of funny how, as shoddily as this Bulls team was assembled, it works out kinda perfect against Boston because they're a smaller team and the Bulls can kind of dominate physically on defense (with Butler on Thomas when needed) and rebounding.
First thing I thought of watching Butler shut Thomas down was when the Heat pulled the reverse with LeBron on Rose. If the Bulls win this series, Butler's crunch-time D is going to be why it happens.
Three examples given in that GRB thread why the Cubs team wasn't 'homegrown' (why this matters, I don't know) - Baez, Contreras, Soler - are categorically false as none were ever in another organization. At least they're paying attention.
Our Friday home games are always on MLBN because they're the only game in town. Without ceremonies and such going forward we'll be on national TV far less.
I'm legitimately surprised they aren't putting a champions patch on the regular uniforms. I don't mind it - I think there are so many freaking patches nowadays as to be annoying - but I'm very surprised.
"league tarnishing" is.....something I guess. I didn't like losing on purpose either but when MLB literally legislates away off-season money unless you lose a lot of games...
So will there be a way to access these live streams on MLB.TV or anything like that? I don't want to miss anything good because whoever they have on BBTN these days just had to make some stupid point.
