Has dusty picked the Cubs in any game? Probably the wild card game. -
lol the trolls have arrived. Welcome to the forum. Please try to be clever next time and not give away your lack of intelligence.
-
Thank God there's a Cubs NLCS game coming up in 30 mins. Easily among the top 3 worst sports losses in my life.
-
Too many unbelievable catches from State WRs
-
Michigans losing their poise a bit. Still think they win but need a huge stop here.
-
So umm who are some of the other pitchers available this offseason? (just kidding mostly)
-
Terrible. The targeting call was indefensible. The late hit when the player leaped before the the play was dead was stupid but I've seen worse. Having to review 3 consecutive TDs and overturning the first 2. And I understand the Butt catch wasn't inconclusive but throw us a damn bone. And then the ref just announced a penalty on Michigan State as being on Michigan and then left his mic on while Harbaugh yelled at him and he admitted he fucked up. In a normal game thats a funny moment, in this particular game its more evidence of the officials blatant bias or something (kidding, they've just incompetent) I'm sure there was some bad calls on State but I'm watching with biased eyes
-
I want both but it's good to know that if we can't win today, we have Arrieta on the mound against sore armed Snydergaard with a chance to steal home field
-
This targeting rule is one of the dumbest penalties I've ever seen. It's completely objective and arbitrary and it results in an automatic ejection. Bolden from UM just got tossed because an MSU player pushed him into Cook and was ejected and UM was penalized 15 yards. Last week a NW player hit UM late, it was called targeting and then reviewed and the call wa a overturned and no penalty at all given despite a late hit. What a stupid rule.

you need to not get offended when talking heads pick one of the two teams that can possibly win the series, weirdo he has to come up with some stupid justification for his stupid prediction that means nothing. they all do. there's a difference between picking them to win the series and picking them as WS favorites. What? There's 4 teams left..why is it not weird to predict a team to make the World Series but it's weird to pick them to win the World Series?
-
Saw on Twitter that the 2 Cubs with the best results against Harvey are Cogs and Miggy but can't find that info on my cell phone
-
Ego Ferguson also randomly placed on IR because Bears
-
I've seen about 60% of the media pick the Cubs
-
One last awesome look at the sights and sounds from the NLDS: http://www.desipio.com/?p=5700 Can't figure out how to get a direct link so I'll give Andy some page views Edit: looks like this was correctly posted in the positivity thread
-
Perfect for me, get family time/errands done before 2:30 (doing great with that since I'm posting on NSBB right now). Then when Michigan/Michigan St is over I get 90 minutes to bask in the afterglow of victory (hopefully) before the game starts.
-
You mean 2 of the first 6 games could be Arrieta/Matz? You win those, win 1 of the 2 Lester starts (or both!) and 1 of the Hendricks/Hammel starts and we are in the World Series
-
Stuff that probably only interests me: After tonight the Cubs will have played playoff games against 9 of the other 14 NL teams, which is fairly impressive considering they've only had 10 playoff rounds (including Pittsburgh this year) since NL teams could play each other in 1969. Teams they haven't played: Philadelphia Washington Cincinnati Milwaukee Colorado They've been 1 round away from playing Colorado (07), Philadelphia (08) and Milwaukee (08)
-
Watching Fox's coverage makes me mad that TBS has the NL this year. Even with Buck this is better. Oh well, we'll get it next year.
-
Ok pretty comprehensive list and ranking of walk up songs by the Red Eye http://www.redeyechicago.com/sports/redeye-chicago-cubs-walk-up-music-ranked-best-worst-players-20151015-story.html
-
A little scary that game 7 for us would come down to Hendricks vs Snydergaard.
-
If he doesn't start who starts game 2? Matz?
-
Can anyone dig up some more info on that stat they posted from twitter about the Cubs hitting .228 against high velocity pitchers, which is the bottom 3rd of the league. I am venturing to guess that our SLG and likely OBP is in the top 3rd of the league against those types of pitchers.
-
Do you mean emailing the teams and asking if they will sell you their tickets?
-
Colder weather absolutely has an effect on how a ball carries, but our dongsmiths are not exactly know for their cheap HRs. Are the dimensions still terrible for lefties at Citi Field? I thought I remember them moving the fences in a few years ago
-
Crazy thing I saw on ESPN, if the Mets win this series, we will have the first World Series between 2 expansion teams ever. Given how almost half of the team are expansion teams, seems kind of like a statistical oddity. Let's extend that streak.
