  1. How the hell did that get out? Isn't the wind blowing in from right also?
  2. Fun fact: The Cubs got Daniel Murphy out three times last night which is more times than they got him out in the entire 2015 NLCS combined. I don't know if that's actually true, it just feels like it.
  3. Yes, and Honduras is @CR and v. Mexico too. Assuming Costa Rica gives half a crap tomorrow, if they get a draw, we'll finish 3rd barring some really weird horsefeathers happening. Basically if we tie, Panama would have to beat Costa Rica by at least 7 goals or Honduras would have to beat both Mexico and CR unless they beat one of them by 12 goals. So just get a draw and we don't have to worry about the 4th place playoff.
  4. At Whiskyfest in San Francisco and I randomly saw Wright Thompson there. It took me a minute to figure out where I knew him from since I thought it was from the whisky magazine I read. It took me w minute but I finally figured it out. It was only a short interaction but I told him I've read his stuff. He was in town for something related to his brother in law and got a pass into the event.
  5. At Bat says 430 for Game 4 also, though I'm guessing that changes if the other series is a sweep.
  6. That would make sense. At least wait to see how the AL games go today since you could have at least one Game 4 be guaranteed.
  7. For Monday probably when they know for sure if or what AL games will be played But they might know that until Sunday night. AL games that day are 2:30 and 7:30 ET. If the AL series split the first two, then they'll know by early evening on Friday. But if Houston and Cleveland win tomorrow, you have to wait until Game 3 is played to know if there's a Game 4. Would they really wait until the night before the game to release the game time for the Cubs? DBacks-Dodgers don't have to worry since they'll be the late game regardless.
  8. Update: 3. Colombia 26 (+2 GD) L 1-0 vs Par at Per 4. Chile 26 (+2 GD) W 2-1 vs Ecu at Bra 5. Peru 25 (+1 GD) T 0-0 at Arg vs Col 6. Argentina 25 (+1 GD) T 0-0 vs Per at Ecu 7. Paraguay 24 (-5 GD) W 1-0 at Col vs Ven Chile put itself in good shape today but Argentina and Columbia blew chances to put themselves in great position. Going into the last week, only Paraguay can't get at least 5th win a win because Columbia and Peru play each other (the loser of that is probably out).
  9. That's dumb. Sports isn't just about pure entertainment. Why did the NBA expand to a 7 game series for every round? There are fewer upsets now in the first round because of it. I'd say that's more fair to the better teams in the NBA. They did it for money and the chance for 2 more playoff games.
  10. Someone should ask him how he would feel if a reporter said its funny to hear a black man talk about playing quarterback.
  11. Tito is setting himself up for the Yankees to knock Bauer around in Game 1 then steal Game 3, and all of a sudden he's relying on Josh Tomlin to keep them alive in Game 4.
  12. I know the Wild Card games haven't even been played yet but I didn't see a better place to put this. Looks like Joe showed Tito how to hit the bottle during the World Series last year because the Indians are starting Bauer in Game 1, Kluber in Game 2 and Carrasco in Game 3. Why? So this removes the option of Kluber and Carrasco starting 4 times in the series. He also says it's to keep Kluber on regular rest since he'd have five days off between Games 1 and 5. However, Kluber pitched on the 30th which means he'll get an extra day off before Game 1 so Francona isn't keeping him on his normal schedule. Just seems like a case of the manager trying to get too cute with the rotation.
  13. I'm browsing on my phone now but how can I tell which server I'm on?
  14. Yeah, I think you started off 0-5.

  16. Also ask if they want a freelance post “Why this 2017 Nationals team is different and why they’ll break through in the playoffs.” And then go ahead and do ones for the other 3 NL teams also. You can wait on the AL teams until the ALCS so you don't have to do as much work.
  17. It's kind of their fault since he was hurt against them but Florida State would almost certainly still be ranked if Francois hadn't gotten injured. That being said, remember when the SEC West was good?
  18. Does anyone know if the radio feeds for the postseason are included with the normal MLB.TV subscription or if you need the Postseason TV for that? I won't be able to watch on Friday so I'm trying to figure out my streaming options.
  19. Yeah, every time you think a team is good, they lay an egg the next week. It's only been 4 weeks but yeah, I have no idea which teams are actually good this year.
