  1. It always seems louder at the game than on TV Source: 30 games attended over the last decade. Part of it is the laughably bad Soldier Field design. The other part is the crowd often sucking. I've been to a dozen games in the same time and at east 4 of them were just creepily quiet to be at. Everyone seemed to be waiting for something to go wrong or leaving early.
  2. Pretty sure people in the crowd are dropping dead or something. It sounds like a morgue.
  3. This defense is monstrous and gross. They can't even suck right and just end up giving Detroit WAY too much time to get to the inevitable touchdown.
  4. We already had a decent "Detroit Sucks" chant and you're complaining They're ridiculously quiet and timid, and it's hardly Bears crowds that are known for that here.
  5. Delicious. And man, Chicago crowds stink. So small, so scared...
  6. Well, I was posting that as you were, so now I know. Pretty much the only prospect clips I'll see are guys hitting home runs.
  7. If you held a gun to my head right now and told to me to tell you what position he plays there's a pretty good chance I'm getting shot.
  8. I wish Martin Short had been bombed in that movie. Or any movie. WAIT, EXCEPT FOR THIS:
  9. Man, I would have paid you all of the money to show up dressed up like an old timey hobo wearing a Ricketts mask.
  10. Thankfully he's only in one.
  11. Such a dumb, dumb movie, but Grodin-rage is a beautiful thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wHDfsEzcas
  12. Uh, THAT episode is amazing, you wretched beast.
  13. I mean, yeah, the non-Martin Short stuff is of course great, but he's just SO bad.
  14. 4 guys = everybody? The point is that they could/should have been in a better position to improve in the short run if those guys had played closer/more consistently to what was expected/hoped from them. I'm not pointing that out as an excuse; I'm bemoaning the shitty situation the Cubs are in.
  15. OF COURSE you hated that episode I thought most people thought it was the weakest.
  16. It's best to pretend like that episode didn't happen.
  17. Yeha, well, their son is hanging around the lake dressing like Brando in The Island of Dr. Moreau.
  18. I didn't follow that at all; I just remember some scuttlebutt that some people thought it was just a ploy to get the Tigers to pay more. I'm probably imagining it.
  19. No one expected us to be thisclose on Annibal or getting Jackson last year either. How were they "thisclose" to getting Sanchez? He didn't want to play on a terrible team.
  20. Most of the posters on NSBB thought 75-80 wins was doable in 2012 and 2013 too. 75 wins might have been possible last year without trades Or Castro, Rizzo, Castillo and Shark actually being good most of the season. Especially Castro. But especially Castro.
  21. My most recent celebrity encounter was meeting Ed Harris in a bookstore in Evanston. He was a lot shorter and crazier than I expected, plus he was wearing a big floppy sunhat.
