  1. http://www.sbnation.com/2016/12/1/13804504/mlb-all-star-game-world-series-home-field-advantage-cba I love how for years they were like "it's too difficult logistically we have to reserve hotel rooms" or something and now they just randomly decide that it's doable now. Glad though. Also glad we could take advantage of the last year of the rule in a backwards way. that explanation still made no sense because they didn't know who the teams would be
  2. This is easily the most personality I've ever seen from Lester. I thought this was better [tweet] [/tweet]

  4. I would hope Zobrist becomes our leadoff hitter with Schwarber back inthe lineup. Yep. Zobrist followed by some combo of Bryant, Rizzo, Schwarbs. Then Russel. Then some combo of Heyward, Baez, Contreras. not that i care about lineup order, but i'd have contreras ahead of russell pretty easily if we're ranking bats.
  5. mcdermott is so important to the bench scoring too. every time we go to the backups is a huge mixed bag. we need offense off the bench. god damn do i hate losing this game knowing we have to play cleveland on friday
  6. no, they really don't by any definition of that word. but this game sucked. and we really need mcdermott and mcw back. and portis needs to be in the d league. I think they are a 6-8 seed, which is higher than I expected going in. Decent, good even, but not immune to these types of losses. disclaimer: have legit watched maybe 30 minutes of Bulls basketball this year. Rest of the time has been the game on in the background while doing other things. For some reason this team doesn't interest me as much as it should. this is probably the worst loss of the year... it's this or denver. Actually, the knicks game is up there too. the loss to the clippers sucked because they had a big lead against an elite team, but the clippers are really damn good.
  7. Only cleveland and toronto are good in the east. 3 through whatever are up for grabs. boston, charlotte, and atlanta will be comfortably ahead of the bulls in the standings by year end i will gladly wager on this with you. you seem very convinced.
  8. this weird ass game (after for some reason like 5 days off) where they lost to a much worse (partly because shorthanded) team, wherein one of the best rebounding teams in basketball got out-rebounded badly and they shot 35% as a team isn't some sort of referendum on the season. oh and they put them on the line a horsefeathers ton when they are one of the best teams in the league at keeping teams off the line. where are the posts when they're winning games by double digits routinely (edit - this is probably overstating the point differential - but they've had lots of big leads, some big wins, and have mostly lost close, with a couple exceptions)? they've played like a top 10 team on both offense and defense this year. there aren't many teams who can make that claim.
  9. no, they really don't by any definition of that word. but this game sucked. and we really need mcdermott and mcw back. and portis needs to be in the d league. maybe a 6th seed in the east at best want to bet?
  10. no, they really don't by any definition of that word. but this game sucked. and we really need mcdermott and mcw back. and portis needs to be in the d league.
  11. except when bobby portis is in the game
  12. this team is so fun
  13. Tonight should be a blowout win against a shorthanded and tired Lakers team. Hopefully no weird trap game crap with the Cavs game coming up. Can't believe we had so many damn days off in a row. So strange.
  14. I love me a frisco melt. I don't like their fries, but if you get them with the cajun seasoning they're pretty tolerable.
  15. I'm shocked at the amount of people that think $8M is a significant amount of money in 2016
  16. Can we do that without trading Arrieta
  17. Surprised UMFan hadn't posted it... http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18156132/nba-power-rankings-marc-stein-week-6-ranking http://www.nba.com/powerrankings (what a dumb snippet they wrote - but they have us as the 5th best team in the NBA, so I posted it anyway)
  18. Coming soon... [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  19. Starlin Castro could put up a 5 WAR season in his dreams maybe Poor man's? wtf lol castro has barely sniffed a season as good as Segura's second best.
  20. Eh. Obviously going from chase to Seattle isn't going to help but he was pretty much the same hitter on the road last year.
  21. i think my ebay account is the oldest account i have for anything. i think i must've made it in 99 or 2000. still have my high school era username that i used on things. nsbb might be second.
  22. I don't want the next qb starting until the O line is 1000% better so I definitely want jay next year. But that ship has probably passed. Romo as a stopgap is my guess Think Romo ends up in Denver
  23. Is it terrible that a part of me wants to go with Shanahan and keep Jay
