  1. Guh, I'm so nervous/amped and can't chill. Game seven would kill me.
  2. I think it shifts things from being an accident or misfortune into being something that he did to himself. Does it make it less tragic? No. But it does drains almost all of the sympathetic feelings for him from it. Instead of "how cruel for that to happen to him and his family", it's "his selfishness really cost his family". Now it's just another cautionary tale of reckless stupidity. Maybe that makes it more tragic, I don't know.
  3. So I heard that the last time there were two ties in the NFL was in 1997, a year in which, iirc, Cleveland lost the World Series in seven games.
  4. I don't think anyone is assuming the Cubs should blow up Tomlin, especially after Friday night. But they should hit him a bit. He was very good in his last game, but the Cubs did step well away from the approach that made them a top five offense. I just don't think he can hold us scoreless again.
  5. I hate giving up the IF defense, but I would seriously consider benching Javy in game six. These breaking ball pitchers are just making him look like a joke.
  6. Whether we win this series or not hinges on which Jake shows up Tuesday night, imo.
  7. We can see the Cleveland fans' reaction after they lose game seven.
  8. Gotta beat the "Lester is a free base" narrative into the dirt.
  9. Babip gods against us all series. And I don't feel like that's my bias talking.
  10. I hate everything about everything right now Dammit don't say horsefeathers like that, being like a minute behind, I thought Guyer donged or something.
  11. Remember last series when we were shut down for a couple games, then snapped out of it the middle of the next one an rattled off three in a row? Let's make that happen again.
  12. One of these days he's gonna dong. Now would be nice.
  13. Watching on MLB.tv it's been the same Kayak, Met-Rx, Michelob and FOX tv plugs every single commercial break, all series. Almost as aggravating as the games, and gives the whole experience a groundhog day sort of feel.
