Dane Cook about the Diamondbacks on those October commercials: "You have to see how long they stay alive." Hmm....I'm guessing 9 more outs.

I've been a Red Sox fan almost as long as I've been a Cub fan. Always felt like they had a lot in common. Hahahahaha....Red Sox and Cubs have a lot in common? Hahahahaha.

Looks like the D-backs are unraveling. Finally they are coming down to earth.

I also got refunded for NLCS home game 1. I spent $85.56 in total for a $70 face value bleacher seat. I got refunded $79.56. Yes, it does indeed appear they are keeping the print-at-home and order processing fees. ](*,) Not sure if the Cubs have anything to do with that however. Those fees could have been charged by Tickets.com and the Cubs might not have control over whether or not they get refunded.

No kidding. If Cal runs the table the rest of the way that play could cost them an NC shot. Unreal. What exactly happened, for those of us not watching? cal had the ball at the osu 15 with about 15 seconds left, and no timeouts left. The QB dropped back, looked around for a few seconds and the scrambled and was tackled in the middle of the field. Game over. This one's on Tedford too. You have your backup QB in there with no timeouts and 15 seconds left. By running another play when you don't have to, you're just asking for something to go wrong and there are many more things that could go wrong than could go right - and that doesn't necessarily even have to do with a QB's decision making process. The QB could trip and fall and you're screwed. It's just not worth it to run another play there. I agree to some extent, but I do think you can have the QB drop back, look for one receiver, throw it to him if he has a good look, and throw it out the back of the end zone if it's not there. That's a simple play with the potential for a big reward, and little risk. However, it doesn't seem like the QB was instructed to do this. btw did anyone notice that the cal QB ran off with the ball after getting tackled? He was trying to get off the field to let the FG team get on, and he forgot to leave the ball on the field. It was a total brain meltdown by him. Can anybody answer this question? What would have happened if some guy on California just committed a personal foul with 6 seconds left and the refs are forced to call it? The clock would stop right, and California would have time to spike the ball after losing those 15 yards. Interesting question.

The phones of the agents of Neifi Perez and Jose Macias must be ringing off the hook.

Stupid parity, I hate it.....nobody wants to see South Florida in the national championship game. It's bad for college football due to lack or ratings for BCS games.

Micah Owings up!

The difference between Z and Valverde is that Z doesn't have the crazy eyes. Valverde has the eyes of a mass murderer.

No neighborhood play?

That field was really bad.

Who is Robert Lang?

Ortiz this postseason: .778/.889/1.556

Can't wait to get swept by the Devil Rays!

AJC article says he'll become Braves team president.

Eh, it's hard to criticize someone who loves their team so much.

Theriot sure, but Fontenot is hardly a product of our farm system.

That's because those 50 points are always better, regardless of what the other teammates did. in a vacuum they are. but the goal of baseball is to score runs, not have the highest OPS And you score more runs by having guys with higher OPS. roughly speaking, yes. there are plenty of exceptions No, not really. sure there are. Tampa Bay out-slugged an out-OPS'd Anaheim this year but scored 40 fewer runs. I found that in about 10 seconds. I'm sure I could go on and on. as I said, those are the exceptions, but it's not a straight OPS=runs relationship Tampa Bay had a lower OPS+ than Anaheim.

There are team based stats as well, such as Pythogorean W-L.

What's their number?

The Cubness is starting to show itself.

Horrible call number 3924092382 this postseason.

This makes absolutely no sense. What about if we chose Print at home tickets? You have to mail your printer back to them. That's great. Anybody got a serious answer? I'm sure I'm not the only one in the same boat.

Good, but not as good as the "Lou Holtz for Prethident" sign during ESPN Gameday.

On the bright side, the Cubs will be able to outspend the other five teams in the Central.
