why would a game between two NFC teams be on CBS? did they do away with conference/network alignment and I didn't notice? Sort of, ever since CBS got TNF, I believe. [tweet]https://twitter.com/506sports/status/918147078907465728[/tweet]

Bears game 6: Joey Elite vs. Elite Rushing game 10/15 at Noon on Fox

PFF on Trubisky's second game -
Yeah. No amount of managing would've made a damn bit of difference. Joe didn't ask KB and Rizzo to go 1/50 with 40K's this series. He didn't ask the bullpen to walk scrubs, including a pitcher using little league distracting tactics. Let's give it a rest with second guesses. If you want to question Joe's style of getting players ready, fine. Maybe the lack of BP, lack of team meetings, poor coaching has something to do with it. But his in game decision making? That's low on the list of things I'm upset about. I didn't know it was possible to have an opinion as wrong as this whole thing in bold.

RFADA TICKETS??? Whats this ... PLEASE HELP
David replied to 17cubbies17's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
wonder if this dude ever figured this bizarre situation out i still can't believe the cubs wouldn't have been able to answer his questions. -
OK? My point is still that it's going to be equally not surprising if they don't do a damn thing tonight or if they score 10. It's not some crazy leap to worry that their beyond the pale offensive struggles can continue for just 2 more games when they're still facing pitchers who can most charitably be described as "maybe less good." You mean like the 2015 Cubs in the NLCS? This team has not hit well in the postseason. We did just enough to get by Washington. Bryzzo is 1-14 in this series and Baez is swinging at dirt balls and birds. We've got to win tonight (actually, I thought Game 2 was a must win). Our bats are certainly capable of breaking out at our home park, but this postseason sample size (so far) does little to give me great confidence that the Cubs can pull this out. Given that, I am not worried. I believe we will pass the test tonight. well that's good because no 7 game sample should give you great confidence about anything.

No I mean, I get it. With or without statistics, it's pretty clear they've been horrid. I guess I just don't really care that much whether it's incredibly bad or historically bad. And the implication that comes with this article, or articles like this, is that this is somehow predictive going forward. I mean, the link on the front page of the Ringer right now is "The Chicago Cubs seem to have forgotten how to hit". That's not true. They, past tense, have hit like horsefeathers. There's no reason to connect that with hitting poorly tonight, or going forward. Well, their conclusion is basically this: the Cubs have struggled mightily against good pitching in the playoffs, and it doesn't get any easier any time soon. Obviously it doesn't mean they are a lock to keep stinking at the plate, but it's not a crazy prediction to think there's a good chance they aren't able to right the ship before it's too late. I think completely dismissing the offense of the last 7(6) games is as faulty as assuming that the horrible offense is definitely going to continue. We don't have to act like it's not a thing. I just don't think righting the ship is actually a thing. They'll either hit tonight or they won't and I think the fact that they haven't hit well the past 7 or 8 games has little to no bearing or reflection on that.
