  1. KB-Rizzo-Willy with a runner on second. Need to end it now.
  2. That was terrible from Happ and KB. Need some contact there.
  3. Think I'm going to take the 30th off work. 8 guaranteed playoff games including 4 elimination games is just too tempting. Could have 8 the next day also but that's pretty unlikely.
  4. 10-38 from their big 2 though, wow. Absolutely dismal. Compare that to the Nuggets. Murray went 15-26 and outscored Kawhi and PG 40-24. Jokic was 5-13, which isn't great but still way better than Kawhi/PG, and he added 22 boards and 13 assists.
  5. They've got the hardest remaining schedule out of the 3 - White Sox, Brewers and Twins. Might come down to if the Twins need the games.
  6. Paul George is going to catch some heat after this one. Kawhi was bad also but he's at least won 2 titles and shown up in big moments. George hasn't.
  7. They said early in the game that Doc is the only coach to have lost 2 series when his team is up 3-1.
  8. Get it to the bottom half tied and it won't get there. We'll walk it off before.
  9. Get him out of there. He doesn't have it.
  10. If you’re not watching and haven’t seen the highlight yet, go check out the block by Bam on Tatum at the end of OT.
  11. No reseeding is confirmed also. So if the 6 beats the 3, they’ll still play the 2/7 winner.
  12. This is going to be wild. No off days within a series until the WS so the NLCS and ALCS will play 7 games in 7 days. There will be 8 playoff games on Sept 30 and we for sure get 2 days in the Division Series where we get 4 playoff games.
  13. Brewers going 3-2 works for me. 4-1 would be fine as long as the Cubs get one against Cleveland. Would mean neither team picks up much on us. Brewers go 3-2, Cubs split, Brewers pick up a 1/2 game and the Cards lose a 1/2 game.
  14. in the 9th? Is my gameday behind? Haha, still haven't gotten used to these 7th inning DHs. I knew it was the last AB so my mind just assumed it was the 9th.
  15. Brewers going to blow Game 2. Already gave up 1 in the ninth and the Cards have 1st and 3rd with no out.
  16. how can someone be wrong this often? To be fair, it’s still possible.
  17. I figured. Just wanted to make a joke (though maybe not) about Spurs being mediocre. yea, I got it - written like a true cubs fan . . . I think Everton did really well to pick up James - they are not a lower tier team (though likely still caught in mid-table mediocrity). I don't see a whole lot of reason to think Spurs will be any better this year - did they make any changes? Nothing major, money wise. Picked up Hojbjerg from Southampton and Doherty from Wolves. They were fine on the whole after Mourinho took over so I’m sure they’ll be in the hunt for 4th. I just feel like they’re going to be boring to watch even if they’re winning. And they’re not going to win enough to make it worthwhile.
  18. football seriously though, I didn't hear about the no hitter until after the Bears game was over and I have most of my app notifications turned off (besides messaging) to prevent phone addiction. Yeah, football and it's a weekend day game. Even if this was a Thursday evening game going against Thursday night football or the same on Sunday night, I bet it would have been a longer thread. Plus how many people tuned out of the game when it was 9-0 after 4 1/2 without even realizing a no-hitter was happening.
  19. Obviously we still have a bit of work to do on the division, but the playoffs are a virtual lock, as is a top-2 spot in the division. I'll ignore the Reds since they have two more losses than the Brewers and fewer games left. Cubs go 7-5 (35-25), Mil has to go 15-1 to tie, which means the Cards lose 9 games and the best they could do is 31-29. Cubs go 6-6 (34-26), Mil has to go 14-2 to tie, which means the best the Cards can do is 32-28. Cubs go 5-7 (33-27), Mil has to go 13-3 to tie, so the Cards would have to go 10-0 in the non-Mil games to tie (assuming Mil only loses to StL). Cubs go 4-8 (32-28), Mil has to go 12-4 to tie, so the Cards would have to go at least 8-2 in the non-Mil games to tie. Cubs go 3-9 (31-29), Mil has to go 11-5 to tie, so the Cards have go at least 6-4 in the non-Mil games to tie. As for the division, we probably want Milwaukee to win 6 or 7 of the games. That would put them at 27 or 28 losses and the Cards at 26 or 27 losses.
  20. So you watched the Spurs game this morning then? As for the MLS, I have no idea if we get the Earthquakes games locally. I did a quick search on my guide and it shows up on a Spanish network but that’s it. yea, I don't see it in my guide either though I'm pretty sure I've seen MLS games before. I did not watch Spurs as it was not on . . . I watched Palace and Southampton yesterday though. I figured. Just wanted to make a joke (though maybe not) about Spurs being mediocre.

  22. We’ll win like 10-2 tomorrow so we easily win the RD but lose the series. Well I did predict the Cubs blowout correctly today.
