  1. I think Tree's "why don't they build the whole Syria out of Safe Zones?" joke had close to 20 likes. No way to verify in the new NSBB.
  2. Watching that first clip with Pat and Ron reminded me that Starlin was the last current Cub that Ron ever saw play for the Cubs. That clip of Castro tossing the ball to Theriot made me double take, too. Felt like those two played in totally different Cubs eras, but I guess there was the one half year of overlap.
  3. Still faked. ETA: Maybe not? I guess adjectives wouldn't have a past tense.
  4. None of us can ever be 100% sure of that... http://replygif.net/i/1130.gif
  5. The only times I get 8 uninterrupted is when vacationing w/o them. Kid or no, I only get 8 straight hours if I'm medicated in some way. I only need about 7 and I'm good. This is me. Unless I'm just overtired or something, on a normal day I can't sleep more than 6 1/2 or 7 hours. My body just won't let me. I've always been like that.
  6. The curse this time will be something about Murphy being the goat redux...the ghost of the goat or something.
  7. You mean like some rookie OPSing 1.400 in the postseason? Wish we had one of those...
  8. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/kyle-schwarber-did-a-cool-thing-no-one-cares-about-today/
  9. Win Cubs. I refuse to believe this season is going to end on a four-game sweep by the Mets. http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/3182681/not-like-this_medium.gif
  10. Hey does anyone know a good heroin dealer in South Carolina it's not for me it's for a friend.
  11. That's unfortunately not how the calculation works. Think of it a team down 3-0 needing to win 4 in a row to win a series (0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5=0.0625=6.25%) whereas your calculation puts it at 1 potential outcome for the 0-3 team, and 4 for the 3-0 team 20%-80% Our current coin flip chances are 15.625% which funnily nobody has selected. *I took 30-40 Not that it would change which option but wouldn't the coin flip chances be 18.75%? A 6.25% of winning each of the next four plus four 3.125% chances of winning in 7 (Cubs losing one of Game 3, 4, 5 and 6 but winning the other four). Nah, SSR is right. Would be 5 winning scenarios divided by ALL possible five game scenarios (2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2) = 32. 5 / 32 = 15.625
  12. That's unfortunately not how the calculation works.

That is...far more depressing.
  13. There are 15 possibilities remaining for the W/L outcomes of the rest of the NLCS. Five of them with the Cubs winning it, ten of them with the Mets winning it. So even if you thought each game was a total coin flip, the Cubs have a 33% chance of coming back. If you think the Cubs are actually the better team (I do) and also factor in that the Cubs have an extra home game in the remaining five (if you think HFA means something), I'd put the odds somewhere in the upper 30's, maybe 40% Not fantastic, but far from impossible. That said, tonight is pretty much must-win, or the odds drop to single digits. :beg:
  14. Rizzo and Starlin are both equally bad at the plate. Can't win with them doing nothing, just not going to happen. Well Bryant is only doing bad because for some strange reason he turns into a below average player on the road. Not sure what Rizzos excuse is. He was a near 1.000 OPS player in the first half and .830 OPS player in the second half. Well they're facing the top two pitchers on the top two teams in MLB, and it's a sample size of like 8 PA, so...
  15. Nope "Hey Tommy. Go in there and hit a home run." "You got it, skip!" Meanwhile... "Cogs, go out there and keep taking the high strike and see if the ump will call you out again."
  16. That's bad No one cares what you think http://media.giphy.com/media/dF73dMfhaFwiI/giphy.gif
  17. Why are the BFIB booing, shouldn't the be applauding a great defensive play by Rizzo?
  18. I believe we'll also accept MS Paint form.
