  1. Is the Cubs feed having problems? The Reds broadcast is a stuttery mess, occasionally interrupted by:
  2. "Cincinnati is a baseball town" they say. A baseball town where no one goes to baseball games
  3. Unfortunately the rain system that hit Cincy earlier is dumping on me now
  4. My dad was laid up in bed for several weeks with some sort of nerve thing in his back. I'm glad I wasn't there to bring him to the doctor (my mom and sister said he screamed in agony and sobbed getting in and out of the car)
  5. Looks like there's a window from 7pm-10pm (EDT) to get this game in
  6. I sprained my foot 15 years ago and it still aches from time to time. Sucks
  7. It feels like Argentina is playing two men short right now
  8. Unfortunately, I think the length of the tournament coupled with the timing at the end of the club season is leading to a lot of teams conserving energy and sitting on 1-0 leads. Should be even worse with 48 teams. This is a 0-0 game, and the player just missed. Wide open. Could be fatigue, could tension. Who knows, but a couple of seemingly easy goals just completely missed
  9. I'm fascinated by professional soccer players' ability to miss a wide open goal, straight on from 20 feet away
  10. It's been raining in Ohio since March. It just won't stop
  11. I was an NL purist for a very long time, mostly due to my annoyance of having a sport that is based on players having "two-way" skill sets watered down by "one-way" players, and the myth of the NL having "better strategy". The truth is, most NL managers suck at this strategy and make terrible decisions all of the time
  12. What's the logistical difference between four 8-team divisions (plus a bunch of wildcards) vs. eight 4-team divisions (a la the NFL) with fewer wildcards?
  13. That's....a lot of wild cards
  14. I have a really bad habit of turning on these games after all the goals have already been scored, only to watch an hour of scoreless soccer
  15. Clint Hurdle expected to instruct his pitcher to throw at the first rain cloud he sees today
  16. Cincinnati weather forecast Chance of storms: Thursday: 80% Friday: 70% Saturday: 40% Sunday: 50%
  17. The Cubs have a "bat boy" with a full beard. Don't think I've ever seen that
  18. So Javy is required to hurt himself every single game now?
  19. On a normal day we'd have five dongs already
  20. Get the game over with before the hotel bar closes
  21. Look at the size of the noggin on that dude. Peyton Manning sized gourd
  22. Burnitz was one of a handful of "guy who kills the Cubs signed by Cubs"
  23. The MLBPA would appeal the hell out of that if the team tried pulling that crap. But that would be a good thing for the player... oh, ha ha ha, right. I need coffee
  24. The MLBPA would appeal the hell out of that if the team tried pulling that crap.
