    Let Maddon know that Ski wants a lot of yelling tonight
  2. Derwood
    Well reports I'm reading today say they can't confirm who was driving
  3. Derwood
    Well, lets see... I thought it was already declared that he wasn't driving. So as long as we wasn't driving, recreational cocaine use at 3am mid season is cool?
  4. Derwood
    Well, lets see...

    I'm not jinxing the game threads. I'll let the mods decide how they want to proceed
  10. Derwood
    Well I was almost right

    So so must of us agree that this is the best lineup? CF Fowler 3B Bryant 1B Rizzo LF Zobrist C Contreras 2B Baez RF Heyward SS Russell P Lackey

    There are maybe 5000 people left at the Purdue game
  13. Derwood
    Oh man

    My wife is dragging me to a Halloween party but I told her that if the game isn't on I'm walking home without her

    "Stop liking what I don't like".jpeg Ok.

    I'm not mad at anything. I'm annoyed by the people who can't watch a game without checking the win probability % every pitch
  17. Derwood
    This game isn't lifting my morale today. What the crap, Penn State?
  18. Derwood
    Not when they're meaningless nonsense, no, don't tell me I wouldn't say nonsense. When the series was tied at 1, 3/5 remaining games at Wrigley, and 3/5 pitching matchups favoring us, then 60% may have seemed a bit low for us. But now that we're down 2-1, with the final 2 games to be split home and away and the pitching matchups 2/2, the 40% seems about right. And if we win tonight, I suspect that it will shift to 50/50 or 55/45, in either team's favor. But yeah, it's very subjective. It's like saying today that there's a 10% chance of rain next Wednesday, but next Monday, there's a storm moving in, so suddenly there's 40% chance. The odds are based upon current conditions. So the oddsmakers ardent so much predicting the future as they are analyzing the present. Which anyone with a brain can do without 538's help

    It gives nervous ninnies things to be nervous ninnies about Never tell Derwood the odds Not when they're meaningless nonsense, no, don't tell me
  20. Derwood
    But feel free to talk about it until the real one is up.

    Assuming Heyward was standing in the exact same place Soler was when the ball was hit, sure.
  22. Derwood
    lol what is the point of these stupid percentages. "cubs are 60% to win! oh they lost well now they're 40%! Oops they won again, back to 60% Crap they lost, uhhhh 37%!" It gives nervous ninnies things to be nervous ninnies about
  23. Derwood
    I'll concede on Soler scoring, but saying with certainty that Heyward doesn't get to a ball that dropped a few feet in front of Soler I just don't buy. Heyward is not only faster and has a better jump off the ball, but he probably would have been better positioned to start with
  24. Derwood
    I want to know who all of these offensive juggernauts are who we've been benching in favor of defense
  25. Derwood
    There are no routine foul balls with that wind. I get that most major leaguers don't bust it out if the box. Doesn't make it right. Soler made it to third without much of a play. He could've made it close at home.
