  1. greatest event in human history Tied with the conception of Theo Epstein. the big bang
  2. could have used that warning 12 hours ago
  3. you're supposed to manage world series games differently than you do all season
  4. Raw you are the first internet person I Remember from Cubs taking and I really want to say congrats
  5. baseball people love praising other baseball people for no good reason. we've already had a "larry himes is kinda responsible for this" story
  6. Joe Buck has been fine. Smoltz is rather dumb though. Buck is fine calling game action...I don't like his thoughts as he fills space though. I've enjoyed Smoltz quite a bit outside of his Lester/running game analysis/obsession. He's been obsessed with and repeatedly wrong on the running stuff as well as just a whole bunch of other stuff. And he often just says pointless nonsense. [tweet] [/tweet]
  7. I'd rather listen to Joe Buck than Barstool. Joe Buck has been fine. Smoltz is rather dumb though.
  8. One problem with that strategy. If it doesn't happen, then you probably only get a refund for face value. only big problem with that strategy is makes it very difficult to drink at the game.

  11. driving at night with speed playing a big issue the cocaine could easily have tipped the scales from relatively cautious to recklessness. Potentially being absolutely knackered without coke is still probably just as dangerous, if not more. Not saying the coke wasn't playing a part, but we all know the dangers of what alcohol can do on its own and its not pretty. how the horsefeathers could just being drunk but not coke be more dangerous? That is ridiculous.

  13. Somebody somewhere talked about his attending the White Sox world series games and how bad a look that supposedly is, so I'm sure you are remembering correctly.
  14. Taking a photo with a player and a jersey doesn't exactly do anything. But I think the guy's history has made clear he's a Cubs fan, and attending a Sox game doesn't disprove that at all either. I thought I remember years ago he claimed to be a fan of both teams. Perhaps he did, and I don't see how that matters. I grew up a Cubs fan who was largely indifferent to the White Sox but had family and friends that liked them and a neighbor with season tickets. It wasn't until I started to run into Sox fans on the internet or paying attention to certain media member comments that I grew to despise them. Add to it the hypocrisy with how the city has financed the White Sox while Reinsdorf has unfairly manipulated the commissioner's office to offset the Cubs inherent advantages. But if I lived my fandom differently, not wasting time on the internet talking about it or really paying attention to the inner workings at play then I'd probably have a moderate appreciation for the White Sox. You don't have to hate the White Sox to qualify as a Cubs fan.
  15. Oh absolutely, it's freaking insane reckless and dickish behavior more typical of a Cardinals player. I was more answering the "can't understand the viewpoint" party of the question.
  16. Really? Every group of top level performers is littered with drugs. alright, slow down with your broad strokes there wolf of wall street. i doubt the top high school math teacher in new hampshire is mixing uppers and downers to keep level during a grueling section on polynomial functions anyway, it's not the presence of the drugs that surprise me; anyone who has ever known a pro or semi pro baseball player knows that they're collectively responsible for like 20% of the country's total consumption of weed. but that doesn't make it any less nuts that someone can be successful doing complex baseball things while being fat as hell or nursing a blow habit or whatever I just don't see what's so nuts about it, especially when we've seen the story repeated time and time again.
  17. A lot of times drug use is associated with something going on inside the head of a time and since I don't know if he has issues mentally I can't judge a man for that and the dude still seemed pretty cool so it still sucks. And he's still a great talent who we won't see anymore and that sucks too. There are a lot of scenarios where I don't care about coke in the system and few where I do. I can't understand this viewpoint, and it is becoming more and more common. Someone help me. Using cocaine does not make you a bad person who deserves to have bad things happen to them. A lot of people will hear "coke in his system" and automatically write somebody off as garbage who deserved whatever happened. Somebody can be shot and killed and if it comes back that they had a drug in their system people will blame the person who got shot for getting shot because a lot of people are dumb.
  18. Taking a photo with a player and a jersey doesn't exactly do anything. But I think the guy's history has made clear he's a Cubs fan, and attending a Sox game doesn't disprove that at all either. you're purposefully trying to ruin my intentionally feeble attempt at humor, aren't you? I am running on fumes (of my eroding liver) right now and do not think I am capable of doing anything with purpose
