  1. Perfect description of the game. I just knew they weren't going to score. Really didn't have a legitimate chance. Whereas the last game I threw my hands up 4-5 times in the first period, I never once got excited like, "ok, we're going to score here". Maybe it was the team's lack of energy, but I knew it wasn't going to end well. Similar feeling, but it was more of an expectation that they'd lose game 3 and then win the next three.
  2. This isn't second guessing. It always pisses me off when managers make the wrong decisions and then pretend the only way to realize it was the wrong decision was by second guessing.
  3. 26% is a lot? So every year, 2.5 teams can be expected to go from sucking to the playoffs? That doesn't say good things about the Cubs chances to make a leap.

  5. Pathetic Not the hawks but the response on here Also a little bit the hawks Game 6 will be fun
  6. Phil bogies first hole
  7. that dude has a huge tail.
  8. I'm wondering if auto-correct got that because I have no clue otherwise. googling shoved and baseball leads to some interesting results that I do not think apply in this situation. edit: and I think one of those was actually a softball bat
  9. it always amazes me that guy can get around on skates
  10. Is that Frank Drebin behind the plate!? No, a bigger slapstick fool, CB Bucknor.
  11. Managers are basically never the reason a team wins. They can, however, quite easily be the reason lots of young pitchers get hurt. OR WHY A TEAM LOSES A [expletive] NLCS BECAUSE THE [expletive] MANAGER CHOSE TO FACE MIKE LOWELL INSTEAD OF LENNY [expletive] HARRIS That and letting Prior throw like 120 pitches or something after taking an 8 run lead in game 2. Ugh. and for the 20 games leading up to that outing

  13. Professional? These aren't accountants, they are talk show hosts whose job is to manufacture outrage. Spiegel looks like an idiot here.
  14. Actually, I have won three gold gloves. I believe that makes me a gold glover. Darwin Barney with his zero range is excellent though. Zero range?
  15. what do you mean throw out? One of the things in favor of the two "lesser" prospects is that there are two of them. If the better guy gets hurt, that underscores part of the value of having quantity. You can't ignore that part of the equation. I think he's referring to Tim's idea of figuring out if BA has gotten any better at picking out future successful Major Leaguers. Yes, this. I don't expect anyone to predict that Mark Prior will get flipped by Marcuse Giles and then have Brad Hawpe hit a liner off of his throwing elbow. You didn't have to predict the specifics once Dusty was hired.

  17. saw one at cedar point last year, this guy had a cheesy looking royal flush with the caption (verbatim): "its the cards your delt in life, its how you play the game" maybe he woke up every morning and wiped some snot after the first its. that would certainly live up to his motto
  18. you guys care about what douchebag radio hosts say about each other?
  19. Rain delayed things Got a few fereners atop the leaderboard after the late start. There's not much worse than ESPN's obnoxious melodramatic stories about today's players having conversations with now dead players.
  20. Chicago's radio PBP guys, or just random Chicago radio hosts? Or was it idiot callers?
  21. Callis had us an easy No. 1 overall in like 2002 or 2003. Wow Baseball America had cubs 2, 1, 3 in 2001, 2002, 2003.
  22. jersey, this might be a little out of your way, but there's an excellent blackhawks bar in bay ridge, brooklyn: http://www.yelp.com/biz/windy-city-ale-house-brooklyn i went there last night and it was packed with blackhawks fans. chicago style dogs and chicago beer on tap. highly recommended. thanks for the heads up, maybe I'll head that way for one of next week's games. Got a couple friends in the area.
