it's funny because that's how theo was let off the hook after leaving boston, except the dodgers were on the other side
-
i thought the 30 for 30 was going to be about our ascent, not our descent
-
who cares. the last 2+ seasons have been a consistent descent in every way, and nothing of significance has changed. it's time. they can't stress getting out to a fast start 2 years in a row, have a complete meltdown like this in the first week, and not do anything. really thought it doesn't even matter. we have like 3 good major league players, no money, and a trashy system. barring some magic by theo, the run looks over for now. If they want to let him go to “light a fire” or as more of a body of work over the last few years or whatever, fine I guess. But to act like this start is really on Joe I think is a bit disingenuous. On the latter comment about the run being over I’d say I’m gonna wait longer than 5 games in early April to declare such a thing. nobody is even saying it's on joe. managers just get stale and it's an easy way to shake things up. losing joe maddon is not going to hurt this team, but it could help. and the "it's only 5 games" kind of makes it sound like they're simply off to a bad start. it's not about the 1-4, it's about the complete and total ineptitude they've shown in every facet of the game, with much of it being the same horsefeathers we've seen before this.

I’d say outside of tonight, which still the bullpen just sucks but could’ve been quicker on the trigger, none of this horsefeathers is on Joe so far. who cares. the last 2+ seasons have been a consistent descent in every way, and nothing of significance has changed. it's time. they can't stress getting out to a fast start 2 years in a row, have a complete meltdown like this in the first week, and not do anything. really thought it doesn't even matter. we have like 3 good major league players, no money, and a trashy system. barring some magic by theo, the run looks over for now.

the booing is going to be ferocious at wrigley next week
-
if kb is broken the cubs run is over
-
they're going to be good on account of the cubs now being good
-
that's worth like 7 picture frames
-
hard to catch up to 90
-
going to try an optimism and call a kb hr
-
get him off the horsefeathering team how many meatballs did he get in tha ab
-
if theo ends up doing the shake up thing that he threatened, willson seems like the most likely to be gone
-
for the first time since theo has taken over, i truly have no faith at all
-
such a brain dead team
-
oh my god

rizzo is a very simple man

next offseason is already 75% done!
-
it's seriously amazing
-
they're going to win by 1 again. how does this keep happening? like rationally i know it isn't sustainable to win like that, but the season starts and they're right back to it. do they deserve credit for being "clutch" at some point? like how long do they have to do it until you have to actually give them credit for it? 5-1 is a blip over a full season, and yet it already feels like rooting against them is a lost cause. i honestly wish they were just legitimately stacked. it would make it much less annoying.
-
brewers are going to win again, but that's probably good. clear out the other wild card contenders for us so we have a shot there.
-
not we must root for these guys to suck so the owners lose and we can say these youths bamboozled them
-
On the bright side, we’ve got a leg up on the Orioles in the Fecal League standings. If we get another top 2 pick, maybe our FO will finally do something helpful again. the problem with adding players is that theo has to pick them
-
I'm trying really hard to mentally pencil them in at 95 wins because watching them win seemingly every night has become relentlessly aggravating.
