  1. I had to read that like 4 times to get what it was saying. My brain kept trying to interpret it as, one specific team has been in every WS since 1903.
  2. Kinda like Daytona for you, isn't it, Jeimer? Hey-O!
  3. That was amazing. "I smoked out the lights on my Prius-V, dude....it was pretty sick."
  4. Newly discovered video footage of the 1924 World Series. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/02/rare-world-series-footage-1924_n_5923094.html
  5. My god, [expletive] these bastards and their magic spells.
  6. St. Louis mayor's response to this: http://online.wsj.com/articles/st-louis-to-america-dont-be-jealous-1412273454 And SB Nation's response to that: http://www.sbnation.com/2014/10/2/6895281/mayor-st-louis-responds-cardinals-hateability-pompous-ass There's nothing so humble as bragging about how superior your humility is.
  7. Replace a ham and cheese with turkey and you have the same issue. Explain. You're still dealing with a sandwich either way; you've just shifted the filler. Replace a hot dog with something else in a hot dog bun and it's no longer a hot dog. The only distinction there is the unnecessary choice to refer to a hot dog specifically as a hot dog. If you ask for a hot dog and I say here's your sandwich it's still a hot dog, just like if you ask for a ham and cheese and I say here's your sandwich, it's still a ham and cheese. Have we gotten into the issue of whether you run out of bread but have hot dog buns? I've made peanut butter and jelly, ham and cheese, and all sorts of other things on a hot dog bun due to the hot dog vs hot dog bun packaging differential. Doesn't change what I'm eating. Of course it does. If you put peanut butter and jelly between two waffles and eat it it's not still a sandwich. You're just eating some bastard mutant creation out of desperation. Again, you ask for a hot dog and someone serves you a hot dog between two slices of bread it's going to seem wrong. You ask for a ham and cheese and it shows up stuffed in a hot dog bun it's going to register as wrong. The hell you say....waffle PB&J sandwiches are awesome.
  8. Hahaha As I was reading that, I heard Chief Wiggum saying it in my head.
  9. This telecast truly borders on unbearable to listen to.
  10. Depends on they type of cheesecake. The baked New York kind with the more eggy batter that has no crust? Cake. The soupier kind that is poured into a pie crust? Pie. The pie crust (or need thereof) is the defining element here.
  11. Moving him down in the order for a while if he is still struggling is definitely an option.
  12. Oh god I can't wait until 2016 when we miss the playoffs by two games because we just had to let Kyle Schwarber take his lumps. That's a terrible way to run a baseball team. If the kid is worthwhile, he'll make himself the best option. Giving them the time they need is what the minors are for. Obviously a lot depends on how much progress he makes during the offseason/ST, and maybe you give him a little bit of grace in April if he's made some improvement and isn't *quite* where he needs to be yet to start the season. But I agree with Kyle that you can't just throw him out there and let him flail around in the middle of the order with a sub-.500 OPS for months and months just because he has a high ceiling and might get there with enough time. If the Cubs plan on seriously contending next year, they can't afford a sub-replacement level gaping hole for half the season. That said, let's hope Javy figures some things out this winter.
  13. Here's to the last day of the Cubs having a losing record for hopefully a good long while.
  14. Chipper Jones?
  15. A few years ago, my office got derailed for like an entire week with an ongoing debate about whether cheesecake is really a cake or a pie.
  16. I saw that earlier today. Not really anything noteworthy said there, although I thought the author's (paraphrased) statement that Baez's numbers are "clear evidence that he was rushed to the majors, despite destroying AAA" was kind of silly, especially given how he has struggled to start every level and then adjusted just fine.
  17. They're accounting for the possibility of the team airplane crashing.
  18. Didn't see this posted anywhere else. Just a little blub about how Javy hopes to lose another 10 or so pounds this offseason. http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/446/article/p2p-81443042/
  19. http://oi39.tinypic.com/1zmcxsp.jpg
  20. Was he protecting on the hit and run or something?
  21. That's pretty fantastic.
