  1. I used it for the big gulp trick but the Cubs shut that down several years ago so I am fine with it being gone. At least Taco Bell is still around for the degenerates. My brother (8 at the time) found $20 behind a bag of cheetos at that 7-11.
  2. They sell that horsefeathers in grocery stores. When I first moved there, I wondered, "What is that wad of oily, extruded-looking horsefeathers in the dairy section?" Provel, man. horsefeathering provel. http://atmedia.imgix.net/bdcf82d60ebd7a6fa0f3f067fa6e9a95a892ec2b?w=800&fit=max
  3. Did Matheny get a Darryl Kile tattoo?
  4. Kane tonight with two of the dopest horsefeathering assists I have recently seen.
  5. I don't really like gold on T-Shirts. That said, I would be cool with it if this were the Cubs 50th World Series championship. Given it is only their third, I think it would be more appropriate to employ leather.
  6. Black? Sure. Gold? No thanks.
  7. ...and yet here I am, a big dumb rube.
  8. Heyward just hit a home run.
  9. Enrique. I'm not sure the word filter would let you type his nickname.
  10. Nope. That swing was pure '16 Heyward. Still plenty of time, though.
  11. I often refer to Schwarber as "Mitchell" because he reminds me of a young Joe Don Baker.
  12. /cryptkeepervoice THRILL-son con-SCARE-us /cryptkeepervoice
  13. Although it will be pointless in terms of shaving time off of games, it will be fun to watch casual fans flip out the first couple times the rule is implemented and some batter just walks from the dugout straight to first like it's no big deal. "Why's he on first base, now? They're just lettin' 'em take first?! And [expletive] Matheny ain't even gonna argue that [expletive]?!"
  14. I think a lot of that appearance has to do with his tendency to maintain his top-hand grip throughout his follow through. It does end up looking really weird/uncomfortable, though.
  15. Has there been any elaboration as to how this rule would operate with respect to bench management? Would the first man up in the inning automatically take second? Would each manager be able to designate a runner for the duration of extra innings? Would managers have to burn a new pinch runner each inning? Of course, tacit in all of these questions is the understanding that this proposed rule is very stupid, as well as dumb.
  16. 5 Chicago teams? I think you're forgetting the Fire, Sky, Wolves, Red Stars and Lions RFC. Also, nobody cares about the White Sox.
  17. Can we lock this horsefeathering garbage thread now?
  18. That tweet was posted on page 1. That said, it is sufficiently hilarious that it probably merits reposting.
  19. Oh horsefeathers, does this mean Dex's adorable daughter is going to grow up a cards fan?
  20. hoping 10/250
  21. guessing 5/80
  22. Yep. Godspeed and get paid, Dex.
  23. Dex had a lot of fun with the Cubs, but it was time to grow up and start taking baseball seriously, all of the time, in Christ's name, amen.
