    This is a pretend thing that's happening in your imagination. The fact that several posters here are vehemently disagreeing with me saying hiliary is as terrible as trump pretty much validates what I said. We'll all just have to agree to disagree, as neither side here is going to convince the other to soften their stance. We all do agree though that Trump is terrible, I'm just over the disappointment. Yeah, disagreeing with your preposterous false equivalency validates your non-sense. http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/cuban-eyeroll.gif

    Maybe he just hates wops?

    Stop harping on the guy. This thread is about the Cardinals, and I want to see blood, too! http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/krtzota/Schadenfreude.jpg

    How much do you want to bet he has a better OPS this year than last? 100 million?
  5. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Yeah, it is VERY Rizzo. Hopefully we get to see some "bended knee" HRs from Heyward this year, too!

    Didn't see this mentioned anywhere else: http://m.mlb.com/cutfour/2016/12/16/211508042/jake-arrieta-has-a-new-tattoo?partnerId=as_chc_20161216_68801196&adbid=10154589262320659&adbpl=fb&adbpr=30530605658

    If it is revealed that it wasn't the Russians, but the Cardinals, that installed Trump as President, I'm going to be even more disappointed in Dex for signing with them.

    I know cleats aren't exactly built for style, but I wonder if they would sell to a casual market if they just replaced the spikes with a cross trainer tread of some type? That way, for example, you could buy those Kris Bryant Adidas shoes for an everyday environment. Eh. I don't think the NBA/Jordan phenomenon can really be replicated with other sports in that regard. Well, I don't think I've spent more than 40 dollars on a pair of shoes in my life, and if there were a Bryant pair of sneakers that didn't look hideous and didn't hurt my feet...I'd double my budget. I'm a goofball, though.

    on the other hand, the nats are much closer to us talent wise than the freaking cards are Yeah, I'd rather the Cards could pretend they have a sporting chance so we get to kill some kind of expectation. And I'd rather not see the Nats or Dodgers improve.

    Done pending physicals? http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/12/07/cubs-acquire-wade-davis-from-royals-in-exchange-for-jorge-soler/ What was all this "no physicals" talk?
  12. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Pom please!

    At least your brother in law isn't a libertarian that still bashes Clinton on his facebook posts daily. You say that like goony's the one suffering I can only feel empathy for Cub fans and liberals.
  14. JudasIscariotTheBird
    And then imagine you are a cubs fans and your brother-in-law is a pirates fan... At least your brother in law isn't a libertarian that still bashes Clinton on his facebook posts daily.

    What does this mean for Matt Murton's chances at making the 40 man?
  16. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Well, they don't spend much time at all talking about the nuts and bolts of the stat, apart from saying that not only does it model the likely effect of lots of variables for every pitch (who is hitting, who is fielding, hopefully who the umpire is, what ballpark are you playing in, etc) but it updates the values of each of those variables as time goes by. IMO, it is interesting and is something that is overdue to be explored, but it sounds like over-fitting is a real concern https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overfitting, and I want to know more details about what variables are being used...and how. I've always wondered if a stat that compensated for game situation would be useful. For instance: should a walk with the bases empty and no outs with a two-run lead in the 8th be recorded as the same result as a walk with a man on second in a tie game and 1 out in the 5th? How much more valuable is a HR with no one on, down 2 in the 9th than a walk in the same situation...or a single? Is a walk actually the best outcome for a hitter, since they didn't have to risk putting a ball in play for an out? How much can we credit the pitcher or hitter with for a particular outcome before we are adding more noise than we started with?

    I won 15k on a 9 dollar entry on Draftkings about a month ago. Decided now was the time to brag about it.

    What a bunch of turds. What the NYT was planning for a front-page Cubs loss. They obviously spent a lot of time on it.
  21. JudasIscariotTheBird
    This...I mean...the events of the past week have me thinking that its more likely that not that I'm in the Matrix.

    There was also a thread of nothing but Cub failure images during game 7. Most of them were the rote tired stuff, but this one was actually really funny, at least to me. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4119/4749569938_fc554fc8a4_b.jpg

    I like that Milton Bradley was included in that picture that depicts ultimate sportsmanship.
  24. JudasIscariotTheBird
    I can completely understand hysterical levels of h8 of Maddon during this game. Games 6 and 7 were easily, EASILY, the worst managed games I've seen him preside over during his Cubs tenure. ...but we still won. I can forgive him when my hangover is gone.
  25. JudasIscariotTheBird
    I'm guessing GRB will care about the Cubs just a little bit as they kick the piss out of the Cards for the foreseeable future.
