  1. Wow how bad is the Pac-12? 2 of their 3 tourney teams lost in the first 4, and the last one lost by 21 points to a 13 seed in the first round.
  2. looks stupid switch it back Playing on a giant wooden surface is strange but I can live with it. All the trucks blocking the infield is a little too MTV Rock N Jock for my liking.
  3. Made me look up Fuld's career numbers. Somehow he had a 3 win season in 2014?!
  4. [tweet] [/tweet] Please post all the topic titles that would have been funnier than mine.
  5. I had UVA winning it but changed it after their injury news. ' This Fast Break stream seems like a good idea, but they keep cutting to like 5 minute long studio segments and they rarely double box it. I think I'd rather just flip between games at my own leisure.
  6. Guys - jamfan does not approve I know shocking
  7. That's crazy....that's like Kershaw's signature move.
  8. I really don't know much about Trey Burton...what are his strengths (sorry dont have Athletic sub)? Is he signing to be as starter?
  9. yeah i can't wait to hear a ton of white sox, blackhawks, and 70's rock talk. And OKC Thunder basketball Why is he a Thunder fan? Something about his son liking them or something?
  10. Well I don't hate Mac...he's ok. Will be good to have him back before his next opiate relapse
  11. If that board and their sources are correct, they are saying Bernstein and Connor McKnight mid-days and Mac and Parkins afternoons.
  12. in case you have trouble finding it because the address moved, its www.chicagofanatics.com
  13. This is what Goff gets for never unblocking me on twitter But seriously I did like Goff with Bernstein. It wasn't just a cheap knockoff of Boers and Bernstein, it was something different. That said I am interested to see what happens in the afternoons
  14. What are their options besides keep him or cut him? They could try to trade him but I doubt he'd get anything all that great. Would rather just give him one more shot to show something and stay healthy and cut him when he inevitably gets hurt (or let him go in FA).
  15. Sounds like Watkins is their top target
  16. You look like Anthony Rizzo in that picture
  17. Cool Jake tribute video [bbvideo=560,315] [/bbvideo]
  18. Why would the Packers be in on Robinson? They have like the most expensive receiving group in the league and they need to spend money elsewhere because they have holes everywhere on defense. There have been tweets that the Packers and 49ers are our biggest competition for Robinson. Speculation is Nelson and Cobb are seen as possible cuts. What's up with Nelson, is he just washed up, not the same since his injury, or his numbers suffered from not having Rodgers most of the season?
  19. Also saw the Bears are linked to Jimmy Graham
  20. Rizzo for Cashner will ultimately be better I would guess. fWAR as a Cub: Rizzo: 23.9 (6 seasons) Ramirez: 25.8 (8.5 seasons) Arrieta: 16.5 (~4 seasons) What we gave up in all 3 cases is negligible for the most part. Cashner has had the most success but he's been on several teams since the Cubs traded him. Sure, but that isn't including Lofton's WAR, and not subtracting Cashner's. But now that I think about it, the Sandberg trade and Sosa trade both prob beat Aramis. Right...Cashner has like 5.6 WAR since the trade. Lofton had 2.1 WAR with the Cubs in 2003. With Rizzo signed for 4 more seasons, its a pretty good bet that he will eclipse either of the other 2 trades
  21. It’s up there if it isn’t the best with the others mentioned here but also Bobby Hill and some guy named Matt Bruback for Kenny Lofton and Aramis Ramirez was pretty damn great. Lofton was awesome in that 2003 playoff run and Ramirez goes without saying. Rizzo for Cashner will ultimately be better I would guess. fWAR as a Cub: Rizzo: 23.9 (6 seasons) Ramirez: 25.8 (8.5 seasons) Arrieta: 16.5 (~4 seasons) What we gave up in all 3 cases is negligible for the most part. Cashner has had the most success but he's been on several teams since the Cubs traded him.
  22. Almost forgot how epic his final Cubs start was....might have lost the series but we got one last great Jake moment [bbvideo=560,315] [/bbvideo]
