  1. The smugness of the “I don’t actually complain about how bad the cubs are every year” crowd is rich
  2. Schrödinger’ back
  3. Guess what a pimp with a Twitter account did now?
  4. I assume this was the first time he did it, and will probably be the last unless he signs a second contract. He’s basically locked into an NFL backup QB job, which typically means you will have a gig for a half decade or more. And his dad has over the top money he’ll be fine.
  5. Looked it up abs apparently she debuted with him when he did WWF. My memory was she had some very big hair, but may have been wearing a cowboy hat at the game
  6. How is it cheap for the owners to charge $ for tix to games? Players get comps. Really good players get suites in their contracts. Bagent knew he was going to play a lot in this game, so he went out and bought cheaper preseason tickets for a big group to come see him live. He’s not going to have that kind of guaranteed playing time in the regular season. Fun fact. I once went to a game in Tampa using Vince Tobin’s tickets, and sat behind Mongo McMichael’s wife at the time, who I think was a former Miss Illinois and professional wrestler
  7. Setting aside the silliness of saying the rookie qb thing only “works” if you happen to win a Super Bowl in that 4 year window, trading a third in a draft where you still have 3 picks in the first 2 rounds is not exactly setting yourself for doom and gloom down the road
  8. I don’t know what tank and spank means. But the whole point of winning with young QBs in the NFL is surround them with more talent expensive talent now because you won’t be able to do that in 4 years.
  9. I assumed this thread title referred to a new injury
  10. We were never getting Ohtani is not the support for your argument you think it is.
  11. I believes he’s saying it goes poof as it pertains to the risk the cubs have of the player option vesting under their watch.
  12. Weird timing with the half dozen “the cubs are over the LT threshold” stories that came out in the past week. The team obviously wanted that story out there in the dog days
  13. Why are you following this thing?
  14. A) I don’t really think that happens “all the time” B) When guys leave a game for injury reasons they often miss time because of the injury. You aren’t removing the option of pulling a guy for health reasons.
  15. As stated above, if the pitcher leaves early because of injury the player has to go on IL stint. You could fake it, but you’d be disadvantaged
  16. Jinxes are real when you have a lot of doubt, they don’t really factor in when you are justifiably confident.
  17. May or may not have further fallout but the Rutgers AD resigned abruptly today
  18. With as bad as things have been for so long it’s kind of crazy to think the 70s may have actually been the worst era of bears football. The one decade they never won the division
  19. Chicago Cubs baseball: negligible and dumb
  20. #NotAllPitchers
  21. We got free sox tickets for perfect attendance in school, K-8.
  22. I think one thing it would do is increase offense. The article referenced the concept of moving away from pitchers focusing on overpowering stuff and focused more on command. In theory you’d see more hittable strikes, fewer walks and strikeouts. More balls in play. Teams would have to adjust how they develop pitching. First thought was I hated it but after reading it’s not terrible. If pitchers don’t go 6 they can come out if throw 100 pitches, give up 4 runs, or get injured. The last one is enforced with mandatory IL stint if pulled for injury.
