  1. Love how pumped up Strop and Rondon get. AND GET SCHWARBER'S BAT FLIP IN THE BAT FLIP THREAD.
  2. bryant hit a soft top spin liner to left and it looked like the LF would have a great shot to throw out Schwarber at home. But he bobbled it and Schwarbs made it without a throw. Sweeeeeet.
  3. Hey, the Cardinals have made it close, 4-3, so you can all stop squishing around in your poop-filled diapers over my fleeting moment of happiness.
  4. WHAT JUST HAPPENED, SOMEBODY TELL ME ABOUT RUNS.
  5. Make Rizzo wear the poop emoji again.
  6. My fear of the Nats is that they play the Phillies, Braves, Marlins and Reds 21 times. And that makes me unhappy. But the Nats stink. better run differential than the cubs http://media.giphy.com/media/dHMqIHf7ynKmI/giphy.gif And they have Ben's Chili Bowl at the stadium, too. [expletive] a lot of good it's done for them.

  8. A walk and a hit for Schwarbs! Life signs...
  9. The confident Cubs fans feel like we already have a playoff spot locked up and focus on things that aren't probable but still possible. The other fans like me get annoyed at the confident ones because we haven't in our mind clinched a spot and just want to focus on whatever makes that the most possible. No doubt that it's more fun to be a confident Cubs fans, but I still want you all to screw off. Fine, but how would the Cubs winning when the Cardinals lose, today, negatively impact the Cubs' playoff chances in any way, shape or form? Unless they're playing the Giants or the Dodgers, why would anyone be bothered by people wanting the Cardinals to lose?
  10. I mean, I get when people wanted the Cardinals to beat the Giants. It was mildly annoying, but it makes sense. Why anyone could possibly have any issue with anyone wanting the Cubs to win when the Cardinals lose, especially when they're playing hopeless zilches like the Nationals, makes absolutely no sense.
  11. If the Cardinals go 15-16 the rest of the way, the Cubs would need to go 26-6 just to force a one game playoff. And this is assuming the Pirates don't pass them which they would. Do you honestly think people here do not know how to read the standings? Why does it bother you so much when people simply want them to make up any ground and narrow the gap, or joke about catching them?
  12. This is like exhibit A of how fans of Chicago sports teams are terrified babies. You're acting like wanting to gain some ground on the Cardinals, even if ultimately it's nothing more than a symbolic victory, is some kind of cursed blasphemy that nobody should root for because their chances of actually catching them are so slim.
  13. Why do the Cardinals still matter? The Pirates barely do Man if you were the U.S. hockey coach in 1980 your pregame speech would probably be "Guys you aren't going to win so don't even try" The Cardinals are 10.5 ahead with like 32 games left Only a Cardinals fan would possibly be this constantly defensive about anyone daring to root for the Cubs to pick up any amount of ground on them.
  14. Why do the Cardinals still matter? The Pirates barely do Jesus, you're not even trying to hide it anymore.
  15. Oh yeah. That it's as hot as Satan's [expletive] today made me forget it's September.
  16. FFS, Haren already out after 5 innings?
  17. Nationals already up 4-0 on the Cardinals. Pirates down 5-0. WIN THIS DAMN GAME. Do it for me.
  18. Bryant is going to singlehandedly get this [expletive] done.
  19. You wanted the coaching staff to make him take an 0-1 pitch....in an effort to strike out less? Yes? Like he said, that particular 0-1 pitch; it was pretty likely he was going to try to go outside. It's not like he's saying that should have him lay off all 0-1 pitches.
  20. They're just doing this to make Baez feel at home. It's actually very thoughtful.
  21. 6 whole posts. One said "bah," the other (clearly tongue in cheek) called him a bum; one sarcastically said he fit in because, hey, this team, strikes out a LOT, another bemoaned him swinging at a terrible pitch, one talked about wanting to give him more PA's before judging and the other glad he got the count to 2-3 instead of just doing nothing but hacking. OH MY GOD, SO MUCH FREAKING OUT. Nobody actually said he was toast or hopeless or anything. We thrive on sarcasm here; one would think it would be more readily recognized by regulars.
  22. Nobody freaked out, you goon.
