    it's pretty telling that I voted for 5 cubs

    In retrospect, yes. I had to laugh when PSU played Michigan last year and the announcers were going on about how Chad Henne was originally going to go to PSU (and Morelli to Pitt) and how Paterno could have had this great starting QB for four years. What they failed to realize was that Paterno would never have started Henne as a freshman (like UM did) and that he'd be on the bench until his senior year.

    Soto was more walks than K's in August

    for once, I'll agree with you. It's the greatest Cubs season in my 16 years of being a fan, and yet this board is the least fun it's been since I joined. Why is a historically great Cubs game turning everyone into a-holes?

    Hillary Clinton made me miss the comeback.

    this was the first time I did fantasy baseball in a long time so I made a bunch of bad picks. I also got some good players late (Longoria, McClouth) so I guess I'd rate my effort a C+.

    Cubs' record with 30 games to go: 2008: 82-50 2007: 68-64 2003: 68-64 1998: 71-61 1989: 75-57 1984: 79-53

    Super Cubs offense getting killed by a Cobs-like pitching performance tonight

    Len/Bob's reaction to it was priceless
  10. Derwood
    absolutely not a surprise, as it follows Paterno's 40 year track record of never starting an underclassman over a senior regardless of talent (see: Zach Mills over Michael Robinson).

    cue bump of the "Will Carrol is concerned with Z's arm" thread

    lame

    his bat speed doesn't seem too great this year
  14. Derwood
    gah
  15. Derwood
    such a shame that the pirates are never good. That stadium is so awesome.

    It's the alternating L-R thing that Lou loves to do. that's fine, but don't put the guy with the 3rd highest SLG in the 8 spot. Bat DeRosa 2nd, Soto 6th and Theriot 8th
  17. Derwood
    Cubs vs. Phillies will be the first ever game with IR
  18. Derwood
    I still don't get Soto batting 8th. That's just horrible.
  19. Derwood
    let the official scorer make the corrections as he seems fit. take it entirely out of the umpiring crew's hands

    In 2006, Aaron harang faced the Cubs 6 times and had 35 K's. In the same year, Bronson Arroyo faced Cubs 5 tims and had 25 K's. We could do this all day.

    Santo K'd an average of 97 times a season and Aramis is at 92 a season. I think that's a wash considering some of the pitcher's Santo had to face on a consistent basis. Huh?? Ya know, guys like Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Tom Seaver, Don Drysdale, Jim Bunning... it doesn't appear as though his strikeout totals suffered after the mound was lowered. I was thinking maybe the difference between the two came from when the mound was higher, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I don't necessarily think the starting pitching is worse now, but Aramis also has the benefit of facing relievers more regularly than Santo (32% of his PAs vs 27% for Santo) benefit or disadvantage? You can say that Santo got to face tired starters more often than Aramis.

    she didn't got to college so she needs to get it out of her system
  24. Derwood
