    It's stuck to me how many "last time we were good" stats are from 2009 because I had largely relegated that season to the nightmare corners of my memory. Then I remember that it was just the year after an amazing season, so of course some of that would carry over, plus it ended up just being a "normal" bad season as opposed to what was to come. Before the dark times. Before...the Empire. Hell it wasn't even that "bad" of a season. They had a [expletive] August/Sept IIRC, but they won as many games as the 06 Cardinals and only 2 fewer than the 07 team. They were in first place in early August. I was thinking the same thing looking over the numbers...until I got to that they finished the season 11.5 games out. The Cardinals just rocked it that year; Pujols had maybe his second best season. Yikes. Actually, they didn't finish the season 11.5 games out, but they were 11.5 games out in early September. Basically a month after they had a share of 1st. Yeah, didn't we go like a month where we either stayed the same or lost ground every day? ETA: On August 3rd we beat Cincy to improve to 56-48 and pull into a 1st place tie with STL(Percentage point ahead actually) Over the next 37 days we either lost ground or stayed the same every single day, going 15-19 in the process and winding up 11.5 out.

    Stealing.

    I've never listened to Mark Grant outside of his annual stint with the 7th inning stretch. Based on that, I want to throw Mark Grant off a tall building.

    I don't hate the guy, but there's no excuse for losing this series. And there's really no excuse to get blown out by a team without Irving for three quarters and with LeBron off for most of the night. I won't miss his stubbornness. Hopefully Hoiberg can at least coach a little bit of offense. Pretty sure the Hoiberg thing has lost almost all steam. He meant Ty Corbin.

    I really want a picture of Montero in a nice pair of khaki shorts.

    They could get to 31 heading into the tournament by sweeping Nebraska and the BTT. Not totally out of reach.

    Steve Nebraska can't compare to a guy who gives up 27 400 ft flyouts on 0-0.

    Jack, Jim, and Johnnie led to one true outcome for Oscar Taveras.
  9. SouthSideRyan
    Damn you guys have enormous heads.

    Hmmmm, Truffle poop joke, or Derwood not washing his hands after joke...

    Damn near killed her.

    I hate game threads.

    Hats are cheaper at the store though. Bought a fiftynine50 for 25 bucks on Monday.

    The Garza trade turned out to be 3 relievers and the 3B version of Andy Shipman. I think we can go a long ways past that and not affect our future chances.

    Nobody's talking about giving up Bryant-Russell-Soler here. It's like you've forgotten what it's like to root for a team that isn't terrible. Oh, no we'll have to give up a non-elite prospect or 2 to improve our chances of winning a World Series. The horror.

    They have that logo hat at the Cubs store on Clark on a non-black background(Either white or blue, maybe both, can't remmeber)
  18. SouthSideRyan
    Your Montero hatred is weird.
  19. SouthSideRyan
    You do not.
  20. SouthSideRyan
    And then he died.
  21. SouthSideRyan
    Because 2022 is what's most important.

    Lost it. Yeah, that was my motivation more than anything else.
  24. SouthSideRyan
    The 2nd best player of all time didn't.

    So the Cavs average age is a year younger than the Bulls.
