  1. I was just thinking how the Dbacks are filled with gritty douchebags like Ahmed and Segura and then I remembered TLR is here
  2. What is it with super human defensive SSs against the Cubs this year?
  3. This pitcher blows. We should have more than 2 runs off of him.
  4. I think that's the third time Zobrist has K'd with runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs. Gah
  5. Not that this was even in the realm of possibility but it would have been nice to be in one of those crappy divisions where the second place team wins like 83-85 games.
  6. I didn't realize the Cubs did away with both grey road unis
  7. Not sure if you are kidding but there is 0% chance he's back this year. I don't care if he's running marathons in September they won't bring him back.
  8. Yeah it's a tough blow because those postseason memories are so fresh it sucks that he won't be part of this team.
  9. Soler going to hit 30 home runs this year
  10. Jesse Rogers on the radio is making it seem that it's not a given he will be ready opening day next year.
  11. Well that's what I was expecting. Oh well. Come back strong in 2017 Kyle
  12. Meanwhile, the state is unveiling their $7.3m video board for the White Sox. But no the Cubs cant get any help for renovations or close the streets or sell beer past 9,etc.
  13. Damn how do you always beat me to these tweets. It was posted 2 minutes ago!
  14. Its hurting Nick Saban's feelings. I would like a poll of every power 5 head coach to see what the results are. Crap my OP meant to say Congrats SEC, not Congrats NCAA. I would think the majority of HCs outside of the SEC wouldnt give 2 craps. Big Ten coaches would all before it, and SEC coaches all against it
  15. I don't think they know yet. Don't you have to wait for the swelling to go down to do an MRI? Yeah, I think that's right. I vaguely remember that with Rose's first knee injury. I thought the swelling had to go down before he had surgery, not for the MRI. Or maybe its both.
  16. Dan is ok when he's paired with Laurence Holmes, or someone else willing to debate him that he can't just scream at. Boers is just there to make funny noises and grab a paycheck, and lets Dan just have his way. Oh yeah, Terry is such a pushover. Occasionally he will give his opinion on something, Dan will politely argue it, and Terry completely caves.
  17. In a shock to no one.... [tweet]https://twitter.com/CarrieMuskat/status/718528677277884417[/tweet] Also, is the Cubs 40 man filled currently? If Schwarber goes on the 60-day DL are there any candidates to be added to the 40?
  18. offensive ceiling adjusted for positional value or just purely blind "which of these guys can put up the highest wOBA?" Good question. I guess I was thinking the later. If the former, Addison shoots up my list and past Schwarber.
  19. If you had to rank the Cubs by their offensive ceilings (taking into account someone at 28 is probably at their ceiling, while someone who is 23 has the potential to have a higher ceiling) how would you rank the Cubs hitters currently? I'd have to consider Schwarber around 2nd or 3rd, but the risk/chances of him hitting that ceiling lower than other Cubs.
  20. Its their shtick. Screen calls so that idiots / drunks get air time, act like dicks to said callers, complain about [expletive] callers, and then proceed to take more [expletive] calls. It's kept them on the air for over 20 years.
  21. Other people won't let it die. There are now multiple threads containing zingers directed at me that were unprovoked. I was more than willing to drop it after the nomz thread got locked. We should start a "topic de-railing debates" thread, where instead of locking a perfectly good topic because of off topic fighting, we just move the fight to there. Locked threads are literally the worst, especially when theyre locked because of dumb stuff. that would be fun because eventually there would be like 7 arguments going on at once and everyone would be confused and just give up.
