  1. Not the finest day for Chicago sports, eh? I swear you say this, like, 28 times a year. There probably are 28 days like this though? And yes there's a whole thread in rants of me bitching about particularly unfine Chicago sports days This game more than likely didn't matter, the Bulls game really didn't matter and the Hawks are clearly capable of beating anybody on the road if Kane's back. Yes, yesterday was truly a [expletive] day. shut it packers fan ( :wink: )

  4. Yup, looks like we are locked into the 3 seed now Not officially of course but this was a damaging loss to not even get a point
  5. It I really don't want a St. Louis sweep tonight
  6. If Bryant was up they'd be winning right now.
  7. When he is DFA'd when Denofria comes off the DL no one will ever hear of him again
  8. Similar. I'm going to some Easter brunch in Northbrook, then heading towards the park. I don't have tickets for the game but I'm hoping I can find prices drop to the $50-60 range. If not I'll head to a bar to watch.
  9. lol, one ESPN expert picked Bryant to win the NL MVP this year http://espn.go.com/mlb/preview15/story/_/id/12608426/expert-award-predictions-2015-mlb-season
  10. Damn some key Cardinals have had success against Lester in their careers
  11. Unfortunately Nashville is pretty close to locking up the tiebreaker but it would be nice to see us tied
  12. Omg apparently Soler and Olt hit the jumbotron in BP and one of them busted a panel already
  13. Yay! I feel like I'm back from a 6 year journey to the wilderness. http://hiit-blog.dailyhiit.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/NachosBeef.jpg Lester no hitter or perfect game? Keep in mind he's on a pitch count so he might have to pitch to contact which means no walks
  14. Baseball tonight from outside wrigley starts in 10 min (9pm ct) bet there will be some good views of the park.
  15. Maybe because, like the postseason, the Cubs and Cardinals will be the only teams currently "in season" since everyone else starts on Monday. Just a guess
  16. Apparently Manfried said the tampering investigation won't be done as they had hoped. There are still some things to go over, whatever that means.
  17. Meh it would have been nice to see the stars win but we have 2 of our last 4 against them. If we take care of business we will pass them
  18. Wow Blues and Stars combine for 4 goals in 49 seconds and 5 in 2:49
  19. Nashville 103 (78) Chicago 102 (78) St Louis 101 (77 playing now)
  20. Come on you can't lose this Hawks
  21. I'll join for the first time in years A: Giancarlo Stanton B: Anthony Rizzo, Miguel Cabrera C: Paul Goldschmidt, Jay Bruce, George Springer D: Bryce Harper, Mark Trumbo, Carlos Gonzalez, Josh Hamilton, Hanley Ramirez WC: PMing
  22. I wonder how many Wild Cards were not Bryant.
  23. It was going to happen at some point. Praise to those mid-major coaches that want to stay and build something special with their programs but over time it becomes clear that they just don't have the resources to become a power on the level of a major conference team. Shaka Smart made a final 4 run but since then they havent gotten out of the round of 32. He is still extremely highly regarded in coaching circles, but his start might fall a bit if the program doesn't make another long run. So he finally had to get out to take the next step. Brad Stevens did the same thing, albeit to the NBA, and Gregg Marshall will eventually. I guess the best hope for a mid major coach like Smart is that the school does so well, they get picked up by a major conference and become a power.
  24. Welcome back Fred!!! Here's hoping you aren't making the majority of August/September threads.
