    UM isn't a Cubs pessimist anymore.

    Forte-Jones could be an upgrade over Jones-Benson...but that certainly remains to be seen long term. To me, the TEs and RBs are an upgrade over that team, while I don't see how 08 Orton is an upgrade over 06 Grossman, but I suppose we'll see. The rest of the defense is two years older, but at least, for now, we have the *hope* of Mike Brown and Tommie Harris for a full season, and we have Dusty, too. Also, going into that season, the WR core was considered a major weakness also. Nobody expected Berrian to emerge like that and I think his emergence was more of a product of Grossman looking to him and hitting him on all those deep balls early in the season. It's not like he was this stud receiver. There are a couple guys on this WR corps that are probably pretty comparable to Berrian as a receiver.

    i just assumed that colts fans were doing the cheering because they don't know what's going on. :lol: I thought that too. Earlier, when Forte scored a TD, there was a lot of cheering. A WTF moment for me. I'm way late on this, but I'm guessing a lot of people made their way from Cincy after today's Cubs game to the Bears game. The trip takes you right through Indianapolis and the timing was perfect. Would be an easy thing to plan out. There were lots and lots of Cubs fans in Cincy...the souvenir stands outside the park were selling more Cubs stuff than Reds stuff. And the interstate was like a literal convoy after the game.

    Looking forward to seeing Moose get knocked the hell around.

    I was driving back from Cincy during the game, so I watched this on Tivo. Awesome. Makes me look at today as a good day... knocked a game off the magic number and the Bears suddenly have decent a shot at a 3-0 start (not to get ahead of ourselves... just saying... one game, especially one that was inked in as a loss, makes a big difference)... Anyway, Forte looked really good. Wow. I liked Marcus Harrison a lot. I don't have much in depth to say...but Mike Brown plays and our run defense looks dominant again, what a surprise... Orton looked decent enough. Still not a fan of his long windup (or the neck-beard, for that matter), but he played fairly well. Maybe the offensive line will wind up looking a little better if Williams manages to come back in a couple months.

    Too bad that first fly ball couldnt' come now...

    The 2007 Cubs didn't walk all that much either and didn't have the same power. How is that a relevant comparison? I don't think 5th out of a 15 team league or whatever is all that out of line with what you'd expect from a team with that kind of power. What exactly is going to catch up to them? I'm guessing they're scoring about how they should...

    everyone acting like Sinatro is this old guy.

    because they've scored every other time those guys have come up this game Its still the heart of their lineup and a powerful one. Just because they havnt gotten the job done yet this evening doesnt mean they wont. I don't think it's as powerful as you think it is. They have power in the SLG sense, but I'm a bit surprised the OPS numbers for the middle of the Brewers order arent higher than they are. THEY DON'T WALK Seriously, sooner rather than later this will catch up to them. You can only skate by on physical talent for a certain period of time. I can't wait until Ryan Braun starts to age and puts up 5 years of .290 OBPs in a row unfortunately thats not for another 10 years Catch up to them how? It's not like they are one of the top scoring offenses or something.

    hahahaha wow

    Borderline calls going against them Yea, this looks very familiar But anyway, this inning is setting up nicely
  21. David
    They can make you throw harder and recover more quickly so that you can throw harder more often.

    The Brewers have been looking a lot like us....what hard hit ball they do get get caught...other team eeking out weak hits (yes I know we actually got a flat out ass kicking today) Guess that's what it looks like when a good team slumps.

    What caused Gagne's decline was steroid testing.

    The Brewers should use these unis full time. Their current ones suck.
