should PSU sit Clifford against OSU to get him healthy in hopes of salvaging the season after next week?
-
This seems like a last gasp before he's fired, right?
-
DPI should have been illegal contact or defensive holding at best... 5 yards rather than 25... Evans moved early on the 2nd play... but this is going to be a bloodbath.
-
Yeah, he needs to get regular minutes against better competition than MLS can offer. Ajax would be perfect.
-
He’s stepping down and not getting fired for cause, so getting his $$$. Apparently, the AD didn’t have faith in any of his assistants to be interim HC either. Guessing they didn't want anyone fluking their way into a few wins and feeling any kind of pressure from players, etc. to keep them on. Letting O coach means they can completely clean house at the end of the year without any of that in the way.

Technically, they traded Elton Brand for Chandler and picked Curry... so they never really had a chance at Gasol, since the Clippers owned the 2nd pick. And from what I read in "Boys Among Men" by Jonathan Abrams (about the prep to pro generation) Krause only made the deal for Chandler after Gasol was picked at 3 and he knew he could pair Chandler and Curry

And so Pepi can go Sunday

I wonder if Iapoce wanted out....

2021 Other Games Thread
Rex Buckingham replied to Cubswin11's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
I really want the Dodgers to win against the Cards, so I can tell all my Cardinals fan friends (living in southern IL, it's hard to avoid) that they may have had a better overall season, but the Cubs still won more games in October than they did -
Cubs playing October Baseball (Cardinals series)
Rex Buckingham replied to UMFan83's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Trayce Thompson GS - now that we're locked into the 7th pick, I hope we just go nuts and crush the Cards tonight and tomorrow -
Legit. I think I’m ready to call for a HC change. I decided to watch the rest of the team today rather than just Mertz. Everyone here is getting all over Mertz but the problems go way, way beyond him. How do you go from a play away from a Rose bowl win to bottom feeder in the space of one COVID shortened season. It’s time for heads to roll. By the way, a horrible epiphany hit me around the 3rd Q today. I realized that I get to watch Nagy offense on both Saturday and Sunday each week. Loads of fun up here in Madison… Should probably promote Jim Leonhard...

That was incredible... and then Thomas biffed the putt.

9.24 Birds in Chicago Games 1 and 2
Rex Buckingham replied to CubinNY's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
This series is a win-win kinda deal for the Cubs. If they win a game or two, St. Louis' win streak is over, and we can give Cards fans crap about not being able to beat the worst Cubs team in 7 years. If they keep losing - better draft position. -

and yet... -
Bello, Brooks, Sargent out Robinson, Lletget, Aaronson in Acosta to RB? Adams to MID? Turner Acosta/Robinson/McKenzie/Robinson Adams/Sands/Lletget Pulisic/Pepi/Aaronson ??
-
Could Gooch and Clint hop out of the studio and be starter-caliber by November? Only kinda kidding...
-
Sargent looks awful
-
fire Gregg
-
I was thinking of jokingly asking if he broke protocol to sleep with Gregg's wife... yikes on that rumor. on another note:
-
pretty surprised we haven't seen Pepi yet... Sargent isn't it up top. Pefok seems better suited as a late-game sub with his energy.
-
Steffen has COVID, maybe saving Gregg from himself a bit by forcing him to play Turner.
-
Yeah, you definitely take the wins, because that means the other pieces are performing and give you more hope for the future when you add Fields to the mix. And you become a better FA destination (assuming there is any money to spend.)
-
what a delivery by Gio
-
Gonna be important to not give one up early. I think if we can get settled in in the first 30 or so without giving one up, we'll be golden. Don't want to give one up and give them confidence or let the crowd get into it.
