    That is a bunch of nonsense. That was a great final round. The finish was anti-climactic, but the whole day was riveting. Tiger plays in and out of trees all the time. Guys were coming up with great shots left and right. It wasn't a storybook ending, but it was entertaining.

    Not just baseball. His voice on the NFL Films productions really made those much more interesting. He will certainly be missed. "The Frozen Tundra of Lambeau Field" John Facenda did most of the classic NFL films stuff, I don't know when Kalas started though.

    His step-dad is a regular poster at a message board I mainly lurk at... http://hsbaseballweb.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/6616002781/m/43110567/p/7 3rd post down. I thought you meant that the drunk driver's step-dad was a regular poster.

    And she doesn't like having to buy them "from strangers".

    Seriously A quick look at the 40 man shows that our options are Fox or Fuld. On another note, how are there no other infielders or catchers on the 40 man roster? Not that I want a return to the days of 12 middle infielders on the 40 man, but this is ridiculous. Well, the 40 man is also only at 35 right now. So if a need were to arise, there's more than enough space to add somebody. Unfortunately they will be doing little more than adding some body.

    No, I doubt there's a problem there.

    Casinos are lovely places, the problem is having an ad for a trashy casino. I know nothing about horseshoe though so I'm just making an assumption.

    You are wrong. If I go a couple weeks without a drink, 3 beers absolutely can "do something". And there's no doubt it would affect my wife or somebody else smaller than me. People need to stop drinking and driving, and they need to stop attempting to justify their drinking and driving. It does not matter if you are more or less impaired than somebody texting on their phone, you shouldn't be texting or drinking and driving.

    You aren't watching it in HD. On directv I get regular WGN although the logo says I'm watching Cubs baseball in HD on WGN. It's not. It's absolutely much worse than any normal non-HD channel. It's like going back to rabbit ears practically. Bottom line, yes, I have trouble with WGN's HD, because I don't get it. And neither do you.

    You got to love the manager finding out a week in that his closer had knee surgery that affects him pitching. I'd much rather have Mike Wuertz take the closer's role than Gregg. If you had to save money by letting Wood go, don't go blowing part of that savings on an overpaid "proven closer" who is no better than Antonio Alfonseca was when you wasted millions on him.

    How is everybody feeling about Milton's health now?

    I think a late night game makes the most sense for Saturday. 10pm eastern. That's 9 in Chicago and 8 in Calgary. Hockey games aren't that long, barring OT. But 3 eastern wouldn't be a terrible decision. It fits into the 1, 6 and 8 pm starts already scheduled. You compete with a Cubs game for TV eyes, but you go on air long before the first pitch is thrown and give more kids the opportunity to watch if they want. If there is any sort of weather delay at Wrigley (rain is in forecast) you could potentially get in 2 full periods before the Cubs game starts, and you could easily get all the Hawks fans out of the stadium before the 7th inning stretch.

    New York is in but they aren't very good. You also have a Pitt/Phil series which the NHL is gonna give a rim job too every night. You have the Rangers and the Devils accounting for the NY tv market, Boston/all of New England. And don't forget the LA area is represented, as is San Jose. There are multiple Canadian and big American tv markets in this year's playoffs, that's a good thing for the NHL.

    A cubs game and Hawks game at the same time shouldn't affect travel all that much. NHL screwed this up. Early in the day nhl.com said they would have playoff schedule up and ready as soon as the 5pm games ended. This did not happen. You have to do a better job with this stuff. It took way too long to figure out when this would start. My big concern is what happens to the non Versus games for a non-Chicago resident? I had the center ice package, and I get the sports pack that includes CSN Chicago. If a game isn't on Versus and is only on comcast chicago locally, will I be able to watch it?

    Well, he was drafted at defense, so you should change that. As for your last point, that has nothing to do with ignoring defense. The fact that guys aren't here means they drafted the wrong guys and/or there were guys already here that were better enough to make them worthless. The Bears haven't ignored defense. They've pretty much drafted equals amounts of both over the past three years. They just have wasted too many picks on failed defensive players.

    You should not have such issues with shadows in a domed stadium.

    Not a chance in hell. He reached at full arms length above his head and yeah he missed it, but a shortstop should not make that high of a throw. It hit his glove and he didn't have to leave his feet. He needs to catch it. He would have had to leave his feet if he wanted to catch it, in which case the guy would have been safe and it would have been an error on Theriot. He probably thought it was going to keep coming down, since that's how Theriot's throws always move. In that case the worst case scenario is that Weeks is barely safe at first, with a chance of him still being out. Instead he ended up on second cause the throw got away. So it's an error on the throw for the guy reaching first and an error on Lee for him getting to 2nd. Regardless, that wasn't an error on Lee. He would have had to leave his feet to make the catch. He was fully extended and barely got a glove on it. It's not his error, it's an error on the throw and is always an error on the throw (unless the scorer is trying to preserve some errorless streak by the thrower)

    Not a chance in hell. He reached at full arms length above his head and yeah he missed it, but a shortstop should not make that high of a throw. It hit him in the glove he didnt have to jump or anything, thats on Lee. Definately wasnt a great throw, but its one Lee should catch. It tipped the top of the glove, uncatchable without a jump.

    I think it's scorer's discretion, but unless it's absolutely positively without a doubt an attempt at a hit, they will reward a sacrifice.
  24. jersey cubs fan
    You know, he lollipops so many throws that I actually thought that was going to loop back down into Lee's glove even though it looked so high.

    http://www.accuweather.com/us/il/chicago/60601/forecast.asp?partner=accuweather&traveler=0&zipChg=1&metric=0 The weather for the Cubs home opener is going to be predictably mediocre.
