  1. No. Last night was Monday. Today is Tuesday. The first game of the NLCS is Saturday. That means Arrieta would be going on full rest for Saturday's game.
  2. The problem with the crowd is how many 65 year olds who just want to see it happen once before they die buy up the tickets. They aren't noise makers or the least bit enthusiastic. The Cubs will have to win a world series once before you can clear out all the nostalgic boomers with money who can't be bothered to get loud. After that, the sky high prices will subside a little and louder 40 year old will be able to afford to go.
  3. I was at a bar last night that featured this game all the way through to the end and relegated the Mets game to a couple backup televisions until it was over. Mets fans didn't even try and commandeer the main TV and audio. And they outnumbered us significantly. This is fun.
  4. I wouldn't go so far as saying 4 runs off lackey is a longshot but I don't see them rocking him.
  5. Nah, that could motivate him ... He'd just ignore her like he did when she had cancer.
  6. Plus id get to go to games without paying for hotels and flights and whatnot
  7. He's been a negative nancy all game. He's been that way for a decade. You don't where a pink/green uni in those seats without wanting to be seen and nothing stands out more than the guy sitting while everyone else is standing.
  8. go game 1 and he can be available for game 5 on normal rest and game 7 bullpen on 2 days.
  9. i believe that was only for a brief spell when it was unknown whether cutler would be out a great deal of time. After week 1, people thought, huh, maybe they will win a few more than 5/6. After week 2 (cutler's injury) people thought they had a legit shot at a top 5 pick. After 1 game without him, no change in opinion other than the somewhat optimistic idea that Cutler almost made it back for game 3. The line is still garbage and putting Cutler at risk, especially with no talent at the receiver position, but for as long as Cutler is active the team will have a shot in at least 9 of their remaining games. And holy [expletive] I just rerealized that the Green Bay road game is their only remaining game against a legit good team that should be favored heavily. Denver will also probably be heavily favored but Manning has more picks than TD and who knows where he'll be in a month.
  10. [tweet]https://twitter.com/DaryaAliya/status/653647883762331648[/tweet]
  11. Once Hendry's yankees were eliminated he lost interest in the postseason
  12. Right. Seems to me to be a procedural thing unrelated to playoff status, but who the hell knows.
  13. He also played poorly the rest of the game, allowing balls to get past him that should not have gotten past.
  14. He hasn't done much. But not standing out as a disaster is his new status quo.
  15. Promising season?????? Yes. He was not a disaster. In fact, he was pretty average (though PFF loves him for whatever reason). It's certainly promising in his first year at the position, considering he was a disaster in the first 3 years in his career. Considering that by all appearances he was headed for early retirement, appearing to be competent is definitely promising, even if uninspiring.
  16. The Bears go into Detroit as 2.5 point underdogs with a legit shot at reaching .500 thanks to cutlers magic and The arrowhead turf monsters. Should they be dogs against another garbage team? Probably. A decent QB can carve them up. But they could win and despite the draft implications that would be pretty cool. Lose though and hopes go right back in the gutter. They need receivers who can receive.
