i actually remember it pretty well, and I am not one to remember crap like that or dwell on it. but it was our 10th straight postseason loss and i did not loosen up until that glorious soler dong in game 2 (along with garcia pissing all over himself). http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/94951848/v521078083/cardinals-tommy-phams-first-postseason-homer/?query=pham+nlds 10th straight loss? The streak ended when the Cubs beat Pittsburgh.

it's so disingenuous how he talks about the multiple playoff appearance thing in comparison to every other team in the history of baseball when the current system is so different from how it was back then

that was my initial response, thinking it was the same people who loved Theriot. But anytime a guy outperforms your expectations by that much, you have to imagine he becomes a lot of people's favorite. Kris Bryant is mine, but he's doing exactly what I thought he'd do. He's been legit fantastic.

nice nice

I didn't hear it but that would make sense. He pitches Thursday, then the remaining 5 starters go back into normal rotation, with one more off day on the 22nd and probably a final weekend bullpen game. Lester would be going on normal rest next outing but still have an opportunity for extra rest the next couple outings and probably before the 10/7 opener.

I had forgotten this was a MNF game before looking up this spread. not happy about it -
day game clinch works for me, I will get good and loaded before our first softball playoff game
-
Check the rotation thread. There's an article about it. the answer being he's not out of the rotation, he's pitching thursday. Lester is lining up for first playoff game start.

Are the digits on his birth year transposed?

it's kind of hard to gauge the meaning/intent when it's also about 9/11, but as a response to kaepernick, it's [expletive] stupid. kaepernick is kneeling to say "hey, this is a problem. let's do something about it". the fact that he's ruffling so many feathers is why it's meaningful. the seahawks are singing kumbaya and saying "nah, it's fine. look at our togetherness!". it's meaningless [expletive] that does absolutely nothing. it's the exact kind of thing that racist people love because they can point to it and say "see, THIS is how you protest!" and because they know how nonthreatening it is. it helps pretend everything is fine. i'll admit that i haven't followed it all that closely, so i'm sure there are honest intentions from a lot of the people involved, but it absolutely flies in the face of what kaepernick is doing, and the NFL probably couldn't be happier about it. So your theory is one person protesting is better than 75+ coming together in an attempt to do the same thing - effect change and start a conversation? I don't see it. There is absolutely no question that kap has done far more to affect change and start a conversation than seattles little kumbaya status quo nothingness.

Oh damn, Fred. Cheers to him, seemed like a good person. So bummed. I will have to start using 'in the hold' in his honor.

why? this game shouldn't be at all close 5 straight national championships and have won, like, five straight vs fbs teams. Iowa should win but it's not the normal fcs team. I fear it being annoying and stressful. They're easily the best team they've played so far Still no line listed for that one despite others having them up. What's the issue?

hes been gm for a hell of a lot more than 17 games. He's been gm for over a year and a half. He hired a known horrible game manager as head coach and has had two full drafts and two offseason signing periods. Plus two camps. In the NFL, that is enough time for a good gm to make a team good. Not great, but good. This team is doing the same [expletive] it did 4 years ago. He's had 17 games to show results. So far the results aren't good enough but I liked his FA pickups and this is the 1st game we've seen a 1st of his play. I would have rather gone for a young assistant over fox because he's old and clearly has issues but I don't think he's a disaster hire so I think that's where you and I disagree. i didn't say fox was a disaster. Rather it was safe uninspired and blah. You can't blame losses on bad coaching decisions and not consider the man that hired him when he was a known bad decision maker. Fox personifies what pace has done to date, which is making this team a respectable losing team rather than the emery trestman embarrassment -

In the quest to surpass the 7.5 win total a winnable game such as this is a wasted opportunity and the fact that it wasn't fluky things but rather the same old problems that led to it had to increase doubt in the chances for 8 or 9 wins, let alone 10. -

I mean he's literally been the GM for 17 games and he inherited an aging team virtually void of young impact talent. I'm not saying you should say he's doing a good job so far but I'm giving him more than a year and change before I deliver a verdict on him. hes been gm for a hell of a lot more than 17 games. He's been gm for over a year and a half. He hired a known horrible game manager as head coach and has had two full drafts and two offseason signing periods. Plus two camps. In the NFL, that is enough time for a good gm to make a team good. Not great, but good. This team is doing the same horsefeathers it did 4 years ago.
