  1. [tweet] [/tweet] This is not nearly as bad as I was expecting before I hit play.
  2. Last year's team was 8-1 after 9 games so they're clearly slacking off this year. Of course, they also played the Angels, DBacks and Reds those first 9 games so that might have had something to do with it.
  3. Put it in every thread on all the message boards for every other team, as well. But start with the one on Gateway Redbirds where they were bitter about the Cubs tanking.
  4. For sure. If you offered me the #3 pick right now or roll the dice with the lottery, I'd take the pick without thinking twice. They just need talent, even if they don't get Fultz or Ball.
  5. It's only a 1 pick difference. It's either a 2017 1st and a 2019 1st or a 2018 1st and two second round picks. So they lose a 1st regardless. That's not to say it's nothing but I hate how people in the media are acting like its two 1sts being lost or 0. That being said, yes, the last couple weeks have been annoying. It would have required losing out but they could have caught the Nets also. Drops their chances of keeping their pick from 56% to 47%.
  6. I know we're making fun of the Cardinal defense here, but my god those announcers are so dumb. It literally doesn't matter if Gio came off the bag because the Cardinals guy never tagged him. Once he touches the bag, the force out is gone.
  7. He's 3-0 as a starter, so I'd say he's getting the important parts right Related note, but I just remembered that Heyward Fan managed to go 0-3 as a game thread starter in a year that the Cubs won 103 games.
  8. One of these times he's going to balk or throw the ball into right field. He's done it so often against other teams that eventually he'll do it against LA also.
  9. For those who know more about golf than I do... What would happen if a Lexi Thompson type situation had happened on Sunday? A golfer commits a penalty during the round on Sunday but nobody notices and they win the tournament by a stroke or two. If someone emails/calls in hours later to report that a rules violation occurred, would they take the win away?
  10. 1) its the 1st inning 2) a 85 win team winning 2/3 at home against a 95 win team is not all that insane 3) good to have your overreactions back The Cubs could win the next 10 titles, not lose a single game to the Cards in the regular season and knock them out of the playoffs each year, and he would still flip out of the Cubs lost 2 of 3 to the Cards to start the next year.
  11. seems dumb if they do. http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/st-louis-mo/63102/hourly-weather-forecast/349084 seems to be a solid window after 3 Plus both teams are off tomorrow and St. Louis doesn't even need to travel. And the Cubs only go to Milwaukee. It's not like they have to go from West Coast to East Coast or vice versa.
  12. That is really close. Seems like one that they don't have clear evidence to overturn.
